OUR VIEWS
It is our position that Crooked Stick Country Club does a great service to Hamilton County with all of the money it brings to local businesses and entertainment it provides. Crooked Stick is the only course in Indiana that brings in PGA top-level tournaments, the last being in 2009 with the U.S. Senior Open. In 2012, the Pete Dye designed course will be hosting the BMW Championship, which assembles the top 70 players in the world – such as Tiger Woods and Phil Michelson. We believe that this tournament will have an extraordinarily positive impact on our county and the communities within it. Not only will it provide extra jobs in terms of security, service and transportation, but the tournament patrons will spend money in local shops, restaurants and hotels. The impact of such an important event is considerable on the entire region. The last time a tournament of this caliber was held in central Indiana was also at Crooked Stick in 1991 when John Daly won the PGA Championship. Once again we would like to thank and congratulate the members of Crooked Stick Country Club for providing both a resource for business and entertainment and for their personal commitment to the community.
Musical hypocrisy
It is our position that the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) should first verify that the defendants are not minors before filing lawsuits against those who allegedly download music illegally and should voluntarily seek reasonable damages in the suits they ultimately choose to pursue. The Digital Theft Deterrence Act of 1999 set forth guidelines for stiff statutory damages in the case of sharing copyrighted materials. Perhaps it should. DVDs often appear in China even before a movie’s US theatrical release. However, many RIAA targets had no idea they had done anything wrong, some paid fees unknowingly to illegitimate file-sharing sites and others are tweens or early teens whose lack of understanding of these issues is only surpassed by their parents incredulousness at being forced to hire attorneys to defend their errant children. Court-ordered damage reductions in a recent file-sharing lawsuit from $675,000 to $67,500 brought claims from RIAA of profound “artistic harm.” We believe it callous to suggest that artists would be less artistic if a fraction of the millions earned was unclaimed. Jimi Hendrix was paid a total of only $30,000 for his performance at Woodstock and participation in the documentary that followed. We find Jimi Hendrix to be quite artistic.

From the backshop Hot off Homeland Security’s presses … You won’t believe what rolled onto our desks recently. Whew! Courtesy of the Indiana Department of Homeland Security, we need to know that when the outdoor temperature rises, we need to keep ourselves hydrated, we need to stay inside in an air-conditioned environment if possible and we never should leave animals, children or elderly individuals inside a vehicle during a spike in temperatures. The department, which is funded with YOUR tax dollars, really is on the case, thank goodness, and it is keeping the state safe from weather woes … if not completely insulting the collective intelligence of its citizens. This exercise is as impressive as press releases about events coming up … after the events have ended. Your tax dough hard at work. ••• And they say Texas represents the biggest of everything? Not anymore. Perhaps you’ve heard about the new public school in Los Angeles? They have unveiled the costliest school in the nation, a kindergarten-through12th grade deal that cost (sit down, please) $578 million. It’s going to open to approximately 4,200 students in September. Yep, you bet! The Robert F. Kennedy Community
Brian Kelly & Steve Greenberg Schools will be auspicious for a reason other than its legendary history as the former Ambassador Hotel, where the Democratic presidential contender was assassinated in 1968. We could build a planet for that kind of dough. Has anyone noticed the dropout rate (uh, 50 percent) in that district? Puhleeze! Shouldn’t every school include fine art murals and a marble memorial depicting the complex's namesake, a manicured public park, a state-of-the-art swimming pool and preservation of pieces of the original hotel? Uh, no, and certainly not for a state that can’t find two nickels to rub together. Next thing we know, President Barack Obama is going to ask us to save the Golden State. No thanks.
READERS' VIEWS More HPV fallout: check your sources Editor, I am an ob/gyn here in town and I am appalled at the recent article on Aug. 17, by Carol Rossetti, N.D. Many of the “facts” cited in her article are simply untrue. The fact of the matter is that HPV is the most common sexually transmitted virus and that 80-90 percent of sexually active people will be exposed . We now have a way to prevent our children from the sequelae of this disease. If you want the facts, please go to www.cdc.gov/vaccinesafety/Vaccines/HPV/ HPVArchived.html. Please give your readers the opportunity to obtain information from an
informed source and suggest to them that they discuss these issues with their medical provider. Furthermore, you, as a publication, should also be mindful of the sources that you use for your articles. I am not sure what training Ms. Rossetti has had specifically, however, she does not appear to be a board-certified medical doctor. We are considered to be the authority on medical topics such as this and, I would recommend that you consult one for future healthrelated pieces. Cameual Wright, MD hpv.wordoncancer.org
Paper is informative and entertaining, except… Editor, Another careless article by Carol Rossetti unfortunately was in your otherwise informative and entertaining newspaper. The article «Before vaccinating daughter for HPV, consider the facts” contains very few facts and only hearsay and scare tactics. This is not the only vaccine under attack from Rossetti. Let’s not go back to the days of people suffering and dying from preventable communicable diseases. Please parents, be careful. Read everything

Writers without borders; now, that's the ticket! Commentary By Zach Dunkin I feel inadequate and frustrated. No, not that kind. The don’t-fence-me-in-with-your-sillyspace-limitations kind. As often happens with writers who feel they have much more to say than space allows, I feel I only scratched the surface in today’s cover story about my recent ride on the California Zephyr. I spent 50 hours in a train traveling through some of the most gorgeous territory in America! There’s so much more to tell. But, first let me explain how we operate. Look at Page 9. You see that space measuring about 10 ½ by 11 inches. That’s the size framing our cover story packages. No flooding the borders with additional ink. A writer generally will shoot for a main story measuring in the neighborhood of 600 words, which really doesn’t even fill up half the space. So, why not fill the whole page with the story? Because the experts tell us you readers: • Have short attention spans. • Like photos. Big photos. • Like short sidebars, lists and tips. In the newspaper design biz, we call all of those bells and whistles “points of entry.” Writers, who tend to think their every word is
sacred, call them “necessary nuisances.” So, as I sit here thumbing through the dozen pages in the Amtrak guidebook explaining accommodations, services and guidelines, I anticipate your questions should you be so curious about rail travel. I will tell you two things now, however: One, spend the extra money for the sleeping berth; those people in coach didn’t look very happy. Two, if you are traveling as a couple, remember one of you has to climb the ladder into the upper berth. More questions? Hit me up at zach@currentnoblesville.com or 908.2697. Welcome, Jenna: You may notice a fresh, new face on Page 25 in today’s Current. That’s Jenna Larson, a junior at Noblesville High School. She’s taking over the youth reporter’s gig for former schoolmate Hannah Davis, now a freshman at Indiana University. Like Hannah, Jenna is the opinions editor at the school paper, the Mill Run. We hope you enjoy her opinions in our pages, too. Zach Dunkin is the managing editor for Current in Noblesville. You may e-mail him at zach@ currentnoblesville.com

Transitioning back to work COMMENTARY By Danielle Wilson I got a job! Transitioning back to work after nine years of staying at home has been quite interesting, especially since my first week of employment was only a few days after we moved into our new house. I think I could be a posterchild for stress management because despite the chaos, I’ve yet to attempt a clandestine eyebrow shave on any of our displaced children, the cat and gecko are present and accounted for (and still being fed), and I’m not currently hopped up on sleeping pills, anti-depressants or Valium. Top that, Super Mom! True, the overgrown lawn shakes her head in disappointment as I pull out of the driveway every morning and the four baskets of dirty laundry eyeball me at night as I sneak past them in the hallway. Does it bother me? Yes. But that’s the thing about being a working mom: you have to set priorities and learn to ignore the “To Do” list guilt trip.
That’s why I’m seriously considering hiring Merry Maids and toying with the idea of a lawn boy. I don’t want to spend my few hours of quality time at home scrubbing toilets and vacuuming hairballs, and I certainly don’t want to live in a pig sty. Besides, what’s the point of making some extra cash if you can’t outsource the ugly stuff? My going back to work is also affecting Doo, my husband. Up until last week, he rarely had to worry about getting kids on or off the bus, packing lunches or meeting a repairman. But now that I’m sometimes gone even before our 11 year old goes to school, Doo has to seriously step up his parent game. We have to communicate more, organize better, and plan ahead. I’m still in charge of most of what goes on in the house and with the kids, but Doo understands that if he wants to keep me un-medicated and our children out of juvenile court, he has to occasionally become Mr. Mom. Which brings me to another saying, “If
Momma ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy.” It’s overwhelming to come home and find that I only have 30 minutes before the rigmarole of soccer practices, supper, homework, showers and bedtime begins. But I have to admit that I’ve felt happier this week than I have in a long while. I’m enjoying getting up early and having to shower. I’m enjoying going to an office and being with adults for eight to ten hours a day. I’m enjoying working at something I love. So though I hate that my domestic responsibilities are suffering and I know that it will take some time for me to establish a realistic routine that will work for our family, I absolutely love officially being back to work.

True, the overgrown lawn shakes her head in disappointment as I pull out of the driveway every morning and the four baskets of dirty laundry eyeball me at night as I sneak past them in the hallway. Teachers, administration reach tentative settlement; both sides must now vote By Zach Dunkin Current in Noblesville Following a series of lengthy, late-night negotiations, the Noblesville Teachers Forum negotiating team and the Noblesville Schools administration have reached a tentative contract agreement for the 2010-11 school year and will take the pact back to those who will decide if it’s good enough. Results of those discussions may not be known until the school board meets for a work session Sept. 7. Both sides were instructed by the negotiations mediator not to discuss any details. “We will give every teacher and Forum member the opportunity to discuss the agreement and make sure everyone has a chance to vote on it,” said NTF president Duska Landry. “The teachers will meet and be asked to vote prior to the next school board meeting Sept. 7.” The teachers were also instructed not to announce the date of their vote and to withhold details of the settlement until after the vote “to give the school board a fair chance to consider and vote on the tentative agreement on its merits and not from any pressure by the teachers or public,” explained Landry. The decision around midnight Aug. 20 came after both sides spent long hours trying to hammer out an agreement “we all could live with,” said Landry. One meeting on Aug. 13 lasted 9
Enrollment UP An excerpt from Superintendent Libbie Conner's "Welcome Back" website message: "Some class sizes are slightly higher than we'd like, but our financial resources are very limited until we receive some relief from the referendum money in the summer of 2011 and/or some temporary savings from negotiations. That prevents us from fixing all of them at this time.”
hours, ending at 1 a.m. A preceding session on Aug. 10 lasted 6 hours. The sticking point in the talks was the salary incremental raise, an experience-based salary bump some teachers have been working years for. The union was seeking an agreement in which its teachers would receive their normal incremental pay, but the administration wanted to cap increases at 2 percent. Stopping short of revealing the details of the agreement, Landry would only say, “Hopefully the financial benefits from the agreement, if ratified, will help the school administration reduce class sizes, restore programs, and bring back or hire as many teachers as possible to serve the best interests of the students.”

Don’t get stung by this new attendance policy for students COMMENTARY By Leslie Webber I read something this week that scared me. It was in our school’s weekly newsletter. Elementary schools aren’t generally frightening if you don’t think about all the germs, so this was a first. The information that caused me to sweat was the explanation of Noblesville Schools’ new attendance initiative, Attending Class Equals Success, or ACES. While I don’t disagree with encouraging attendance, I still panicked. The information was delivered by a friendly little bumble bee to remind students to “Be Present.” Absolutely. Going to school is a great idea! I’m all for it. What made me nervous was the outline of consequences. Miss 12 or more days and you and your child could wind up in the Hamilton County Prosecutor’s office. Yikes! This bee has a stinger. The more I read, the more I started to relax. ACES is a policy that makes sense and leaves room for special circumstances. The program was implemented to reinforce the importance
of school attendance in kindergarten through grade six. According to the Noblesville Schools website and the information sent home with students, the majority of Noblesville’s schools have missed a Four Star rating by the state due to sagging attendance rates. In order to receive the honor, a school’s attendance rate must be in the top 25 percent of schools in Indiana. Of course, it’s nice to be honored as a Four Star School, but the bottom line is children learn more when they attend school regularly. ACES isn’t a policy meant to keep anyone from attending a family wedding across the country or to encourage kids to come to school with the flu. The goal of the program is to remind da parents and students just how important it is that students simply show up ready to learn.

‘Hippie chicks’ still mixing it up the natural way Commentary By Krista Bocko Six months ago I wrote about my foray into deodorant making with my friends at an inaugural “(I’m not a) Dirty Hippie Party,” where we ate and drank and mixed ingredients like cocoa and shea butter and essential oils to create little jars of homemade deodorant (really works!). I’m happy to report that these parties have become a monthly event, and we’re reclaiming a bit of DIY initiative and having a great time in the process. Being the flighty, somewhat unfocused person that I am, I haven’t kept track of what all we’ve made, but we racked our brains and came up with this list: deodorant, laundry detergent, facial cleanser and moisturizer, shampoo, conditioner, sugar scrubs, and toothpaste. We even had a “Hippies Cook with Herbs” party in July, where my friend Cortney showed us, well, how to cook with herbs. So fun to get together and talk about compost and bring our herb and garden pickings! We’ve had a ton of laughs, and these are some of the most awesome women I know. We’ve all learned things too, one of which is this: do not mix baking soda and vinegar together unless you want the bubbling, overflowing volcano effect. We plan to continue these monthly get-togethers, so to my friends reading this who aren’t on Facebook (that’s how I do the invites), call

me and get in the loop. Here’s the Sugar Scrub recipe, which is so super easy and effective: 1 jar (baby food jars work well), 1 cup sugar, ½ cup extra virgin olive oil, and essential oil (optional). Mix sugar and olive oil, add any scent(s) you like. Use as an exfoliator, and shake before use. Wow, and I love that basic home/bath products don’t have to be bought from a store. Rock on, hippie chicks!

‘Stupid’ taxes confusing enough; try explaining them to a child COMMENTARY By Brenda Alexander I knew I was in for an interesting time when my 6th grader heard the phrase “death taxes” on the radio. Only recently had she come to understand that the money her parents earn doesn’t all belong to them. That the federal, state, and local governments all get a piece of it – when we work, when we buy something or sell investments, etc. If talking income and sales taxes isn’t difficult enough, imagine trying to explain death taxes! “Ok,” I start, “suppose you died and you had a nice home. The law says you have to pay a portion of the value of your home to the government.” “But you are dead,” says my astute daughter. I explain that despite being dead, you still have to pay. “But you are DEAD,” reiterates my daughter, thinking I’d missed something crucial. I see her point and counter, “Well – the people who inherit your stuff actually have to pay.” “Well, that’s stupid,” she says and walks away. One of my earliest memories about taxes
8 | August 31, 2010
(yes, I have a category of memories devoted to taxes) occurred when I was the same age. I lived on a farm in Minnesota. One April, I noticed my father hauling trailer after trailer of corn to the nearby grain elevator. My mother informed me he was emptying out one of our three grain bins. When I pressed, she exclaimed, “To pay the taxes! That’s why.” Recently, the radio produced another topic for conversation. Apparently, the Tax Free date is now in August. This is the date on which the average American has earned enough money to pay his or her taxes in all their forms. The remainder of the year is ours. My dad’s Tax Free date was in May. If it comes up, I have a response ready: “No, honey, you can’t just quit your job January through July. It doesn’t work that way.” “Well, that’s stupid,” she’ll say.

50-hour adventure on Amtrak’s California Zephyr filled with scenic beauty, relaxation By Zach Dunkin Current in Noblesville 7:10 p.m., July 11, near Mount Pleasant, Iowa We’re riding a 2,400-mile twin ribbon of steel rail through America’s midsection – from the Great Midwest to the Golden State – on Amtrak’s California Zephyr. Settling into our cozy quarters in one of the Zeph’s gleaming, silver sleeping cars, my wife ingenuously asks our porter: “Now, where is the front of the train?” Reacting as if this is was not the first time he had heard that query, the attendant, politely – and without smirking -- points in the direction the train is traveling. “The dining car is that way, too,” he adds. “We’re serving rack of lamb tonight.” My almostvegetarian wife utters a dissenting “Ba-a-a-a.” The attendant thinks that’s funny. We are on a 50-hour journey from Galesburg, Ill., to Martinez, Calif., near San Francisco, an adventure that some travel experts believe is one of the most beautiful rail routes in North America. Reaching a federally mandated maximum of 79 mph, we will rumble through the crop-laden acres of the Heartland before creeping over the front range of the Rockies. We will snake along the Colorado River through Glenwood Canyon, before picking up velocity again for the jaunt across Utah desert land only to back off on the throttle through the High Sierras. The best part: we have a picture window on it all, whether relaxing in our private room, soaking up the beauty in the panoramic observation car or over dinner and wine in the dining car. 9:45 p.m., July 11, east of Des Moines, Iowa Space is tight on the Superliner bedroom – about 48 square feet, including a small sink, a two-in-one commode/shower stall, a sofa which converts into a lower bunk and another chair. The upper sleeping berth is accessible only by ladder and there is very little headroom, so consider that when booking. The mattresses are thin but the all-night ride is smooth and quiet. It beats sleeping in coach. 11:05 a.m., July 12, entrance to Moffat Tunnel, west of Denver The train comes to full stop at the mouth of Moffat Tunnel, a 6.2-mile engineering miracle of its day in 1928. The shaft, one of 46 tunnels we will pass through along the route, must be “vented” of its methane before we are allowed to make the 10-minute excursion. It could leak into the cars. We cross the Continental Divide at an altitude of 9,239 feet, the highest point on the Amtrak route. We descend into the most gorgeous section of the track, through canyon walls towering above the Colorado River, experiencing a sensory overload of soaring red and golden oddshaped rock formations and spires all the way into Glenwood Springs. This, alone, is worth the trip. 2:38 p.m., July 12, along the Colorado River We experience our first of several “Amtrak Salutes” along the river as campers, rafters and kayakers drop their shorts and show us what a mid-day Colorado moon looks like. It’s tradition. 8:30 p.m., July 12, Colorado/Utah state line We’re in the dining car at sunset as we pass through the incredible red rock formations in Ruby Canyon. Good timing. Dinner, lunch and breakfast are included in the price of the sleeping car ticket, although coach passengers may purchase meals at menu prices. Typical full-course dinner meals include New York strip steak, vegetarian pasta, herb-roasted half chicken and a marketplace seafood selection. It’s community-style seating, so you’ll

Tips for riding the California Zephyr • Depart from Galesburg, Ill., which is less congested than Chicago and has free parking. • When making reservations, ask for Room E and in the newest car available. • Sit facing north in the observation car between Denver and Glenwood Springs and get there early. • To keep your room fresh, spray with Febrese or similar linen spray. • Get fresh air and exercise at each possible stop. • Take your own pillow. • Opt for your car’s public shower, which is roomier and makes less of a mess than the one in your room.

Less sociable types can order in, which is especially nice for breakfast. 4:40 p.m., July 13, Martinez, Calif. At the end of another sight-filled day in which we saw a bearded lady board the train in Truckee, Calif., and rolled through Donner Pass and into the amazing Sierra Nevadas, we arrive just 55 minutes late, not bad by Amtrak standards. Amtrak does not own the track, so the Zephyr occasionally has to stop or slow down to allow the freighters to do their business ahead. Though riding the Zephyr may not be the quickest or the cheapest way to go west, it is an awe-inspiring way to see the USA. The views are stunning. The relaxation is priceless. And, when you’re ready to come back home, you get to do it again.

What's the cost? A typical round-trip fare for two from Galesburg, Ill., to the end of the line in Emeryville, Calif., is about $576 for reserved coach seating or about $3,000-$3,200 to travel in a bedroom.

The many benefits of Coenzyme Q10 NUTRITION By Laura Marenco Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is in the energy producing mitochondria of every cell and plays a key role in energy production, helping drive everything from muscle contraction to the production of protein. CoQ10 also functions as a naturally produced antioxidant that removes free radicals preventing damage to healthy cells. Due to its ability to improve cellular energy production and free-radical scavenging, CoQ10 has shown potential benefits to our health from preventing heart disease to fighting cancer. One important clinical study showed that people who received daily CoQ10 supplements within three days of a heart attack were significantly less likely to experience subsequent heart attacks and chest pain. These same patients were less likely to die of heart disease than those who did not receive the supplements. Several clinical studies suggest that CoQ10 may also lower blood pressure given three months of consistent supplementation. Researchers concluded that CoQ10 has the potential to lower systolic blood pressure by up to 17 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) and diastolic blood pressure by 10 mm Hg, without significant side effects. There also may be a link between levels of CoQ10 and cholesterol, as levels tend to be

 Cutting carbs can cause bad breath – Ditching bread to slip into your skinny jeans may take a toll on your breath. Because carbs are your body's normal energy source, when you consume too few, you start burning your own fat stores for energy, which releases substances called ketones into your bloodstream. These can make your breath smell funky—some describe it as a combination of nail polish and overripe pineapples. -www.prevention.com
lower in people with historically high cholesterol. Additionally, cholesterol-lowering drugs or statins, appear to deplete natural levels of CoQ10. Taking supplements can correct this deficiency, and studies show that increasing levels can reduce muscle pain associated with statins. Studies of women with breast cancer suggest that CoQ10 (in addition to conventional treatment and a proper nutritional regimen) may shrink tumors, reduce pain, and cause partial remission in some individuals. In addition to CoQ10, the studies also included the antioxidants Vitamins C, E, and Selenium. People with gum disease tend to have low levels of CoQ10 in their gums. In a few clinical studies, CoQ10 supplements increased healing and tissue repair. There are now many mouthwash options that incorporate CoQ10 to supplement gum tissue. Consult with your healthcare provider, particularly if on medications, but there may be many ways you may benefit from supplementing with CoQ10.

It’s just about time for that fall ‘house-cleaning’ HEALTH By Carol Rossetti, N.D. As the season begins to change it’s time to think about what I recommend at each of the four season changes – a whole body cleansing. Of the 70,000 chemicals being used commercially in the United States, the EPA considers about 65,000 of them to be potentially hazardous to your health. With chemicals combined with nutrition deficiencies caused by consuming refined and processed foods your detoxification system becomes overwhelmed. While cleansing is not a cure-all, you may be amazed at how many minor aches and pains, chronic health problems, and even emotional problems diminish or may even disappear. Toxins are fat soluble substances and must be broken down into water soluble so the body can flush them. Supplementing with antioxidants will help the body to do a more efficient job. Antioxidants deactivate free radicals. The second part of the detoxification process is to help the body inactivate or neutralize the
toxins and help in elimination. Enzymes help this process. Protease Plus taken between meals helps the body to get rid of “old” stuff. Targeted cleansing can dramatically improve your health. Muscle tension, back and leg pain, weakened bones and joints indicate overburdened kidneys. Liver cleansing, lymphatic cleansing, or a gallbladder flush can be helpful. Cleanse yourself of toxic emotions, too. Anger, hatred, resentment, greed, and other emotional states based in fear and negativity are just as toxic to you as pesticides and heavy metals. People tend to ignore them until the poison has caused its damage. These toxins defile your body from within – the ones that arise from the heart. Make fall and each new season a time to take a look at your physical and emotional health and clean house. Noblesville resident Carol Rossetti, N.D. is a Naturopathic Doctor with Wellness By Nature. She can be reached at (317) 773-1612 or visit www.wellnessbynature.com.

Tribute to Buddy Holly concludes Symphony on the Prairie’s homage series By Zach Dunkin Current in Noblesville First, there was the surprisingly successful tribute to John Denver. The music of Michael Jackson was showcased a month later. Last weekend, the Beatles were in the spotlight as Classical Mystery Tour made a return visit to the Conner Prairie Amphitheatre. Next up in the Marsh Symphony on the Prairie series? Buddy Holly – and friends. The tribute group known as John Mueller’s Winter Dance Party will make its SOTP debut at 8 p.m. Sept. 2 and 3 to perform an authentic tribute to legendary 1950s rock ‘n’ roll legends Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper. “The Music of Buddy Holly and Friends” features the hits from the original artists’ Winter Dance Party tour in 1959 that ended with their tragic plane crash. Mueller’s act is the only authorized group to perform authentic interpretations of the songs by the estates of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper. The Buddy Holly hits will be performed by Mueller, who bears a striking resemblance to Holly and starred in the Drama Desk Awardwinning stage production of “Buddy…The

Buddy Holly Story.” The list will include songs like “Peggy Sue,” “That’ll Be The Day,” “Peggy Got Married,” “Oh, Boy,” “True Love Ways,” “Not Fade Away” and “Rave On,” among others. Over the years, Mueller has performed with
some of the original members of Buddy Holly’s band, including Tommy Allsup, Carl Bunch and the late Niki Sullivan. Since 1999, he has toured the Midwest to re-create the Winter Dance Party tour by playing in every remaining original ballroom that the original artists did more than 50 years. The Ritchie Valens hits will be performed by Ray Anthony, who has portrayed Ritchie Valens in various rock legends shows throughout North America, and will feature “Donna,” “La Bamba,” “Boney Maroney,” “Come On Let’s Go” and “We Belong Together.” The Big Bopper is portrayed by his own son, J. P. Richardson, Jr., who will perform his father’s signature works such as “Chantilly Lace,” “Pink Petticoats,” “Running Bear,” and “Bopper Wedding.” Richardson was born three months after the plane crash that took his father’s life.

RECIPES By Molly Herner When it’s warm outside I love to serve a hearty meat like roasted lamb with a cool sauce. Tzaziki with lamb is one of my favorite combos. Tzaziki (pronounced za-DZEE-kee) is traditionally a Middle Eastern yogurt sauce with cucumbers, garlic and a bit of lemon. As a condiment it is commonly associated with Greek food, and is often served with plain or toasted pita bread, stuffed grape leaves and salads. It is also a staple for gyros.
This sauce is also great on roasted meats. When serving pour a bit of the sauce over the chops, and have small bowls for dipping during the meal. Enjoy this with a light Grecian red wine or a Pinot Noir Molly Herner, is the baker/pastry chef at Matteo’s Ristorante Italiano. You may email her at odette05@aol.com.
Rosemary Roasted Lamb Chops with Tzaziki Sauce Ingredients • Lamb chops • Dried rosemary • Garlic • Lemon • Greek style plain yogurt • cucumber • Salt and pepper • Olive oil Instructions 1. Put chops in a roasting pan and drizzle them with olive oil. 2. Sprinkle them liberally with salt, pepper and dried rosemary. 3. Set oven at 375 degrees and
Current in Noblesville
roast the chops for 5 to 7 minutes on each side. If you like them medium rare, roast them for a little less time. 4. For the Tzaziki sauce empty a pint container of plain Greek-style yogurt and place it over a paper towel or two in a big bowl. Let the yogurt drain for a half hour or so. 5. Slice a cucumber long ways and scrape out the seeds with a spoon. Peel each half of the cucumber and grate them with a medium grade cheese grater. You can also
dice the cucumber, but I like a thin grate. 6. Place the cucumber in a few paper towels and sprinkle them with salt. Squeeze the cucumber for a bit to release the water from them. 7. Mix the cucumber, yogurt, the juice of half a lemon and a clove of finely minced garlic. Add a dash of salt and pepper to taste. If you let the sauce sit in the fridge for a day or so, the flavors will meld together and intensify.

Sometimes a quiet ‘meeting place’ is all a traveling family needs TRAVEL By Tracy Line As much as I love the sights and sounds of new places, there is one spot to which I return each year: Holden Beach, North Carolina. This tiny island has been a haven for my family for more than 30 years. There’s not much to tell you about Holden. It’s small, in the middle of nowhere and has little to offer beyond its beach. There’s a restaurant or two, a fishing pier and a general store. Cross the bridge to the mainland, and you’ll find a couple shops and a grocery. I love it here. My family doesn’t go to Holden for the restaurants, activities or amusements. We go because it isn’t crowded. We go because the beautiful beach has plenty of room to spread out and play. We go because it’s quiet, peaceful and according to National Geographic Traveler magazine, the ninth best family beach in America. I was 13 the first time I came to the island. My family rented a beach house with another
family. Here we kids, all five of us, learned to swim, body surf and catch ghost crabs. We had so much fun that our families returned annually. After our friends moved to the East Coast, Holden Beach became our meeting place. The years at Holden mark the milestones of my life. When I was 25, my then-fiancé came with us on the trip. At 29, we helped our first child dip her toes in the ocean. Now, we swim, body surf and catch crabs with all three of our daughters, my parents watching in the distance. We all love it here. Our original group still meets at Holden. We’ve grown from two families of 9 to seven families of 26. And while we’ve all changed, Holden really hasn’t. And for that, I am truly grateful.

Capt. Critic’s DVD pick
The Lottery
Not rated, 80 minutes
Photo by Wolfgang Held.
Christian and Emil Yoanson await the results of a drawing that determines admission to a charter school in the documentary “The Lottery.”
DVDs By Chris Lloyd The issue of charter schools has moved back and forth from front to back burners on the crucible of modern American politics, and the new documentary «The Lottery» by 27-year-old director Madeleine Sackler is bound to crank the heat back up. This decidedly opinionated but undeniably illuminating film looks at the case of the Harlem Success Academy, a series of schools that is succeeding in educating children in one of New York City›s toughest neighborhoods. The title comes from the annual lottery held to determine which new students will be admitted. For 2009, there were 3,000 applicants for 475 slots. Getting into the school or not can literally mean the difference between success or failure in a child›s education, and Sackler puts a very human face on this dilemma by following

four young applicants and their families in the months leading up to the lottery. «The Lottery» also takes a broader look at the clash between charter school advocates and teachers unions. As is often the case with political docs, «The Lottery» is ill-served by having fingers on the scale in its effort to present a balanced portrayal. Sackler›s pro-charter leanings are made clear in the occasionally cartoonish way union backers are presented. Still, this documentary is a powerful look at the debate over how this nation educates its children. Grade: B-plus Read more of Chris Lloyd’s review of current films and DVD’s at www. captaincritic.blogspot.com or www. TheFilmYap.com.

Tree variety endless in family history, nature GENEAOLOGY By Darla Kinney Scoles While notebooks, boxes and file folders full of names, dates and places can give any family history enthusiast a feeling of accomplishment, there’s nothing as satisfying as displaying that same information decoratively on the wall for everyone to see. Search the Internet for “family tree posters” and you will discover dozens of offerings available. Genealogy software programs usually have the capability to create posters as well, creating almost as many varieties of trees in the family history world as there are in the natural one. Having spent much free time and some money compiling generations of information, one then finds a seemingly infinite array of family tree displays ranging from the free to the definitely pricey as well. Cost, however, is only one factor to consider in selecting a frame-able family tree. One year, hoping to boost the genealogical enthusiasm of our extended family members, we gave everyone a decorative family tree chart for Christmas. It was an old Pennsylvania Dutch style poster on parchment, and while it
was motivating to have around - beckoning to be filled - I found it intimidating as well. Requiring hand work to fill it in, I was always afraid of messing it up or running out of room on a blank and turning Suzanne Elisabeth into Suzanne Elisa for time and all eternity (on my wall, anyway). My plan to gather the information and hire a calligrapher to complete it never came to fruition either. The chart remains empty, beckoning. Online forms or printing services might have been a better choice in my case. Try doing a search of your own and see what style of poster might be the best choice for your life style – and life history. If nothing else, order a blank one and keep it around for motivation.

The right nest
COMMENTARY By David Cain No matter what time of day or night, the story of “The Best Nest” by P.D Eastman, is always a crowd pleaser at my house. It’s the tragic tale of a happy Mr. Bird, who is proud of his house, though his wife, Mrs. Bird, doesn’t like it. Mr. Bird sings a happy tune that promotes his nest as the best, only to have Mrs. Bird smack him down. As you’d expect the story to go, they end up moving. While searching the town looking for a better nest, they are continually confronted with struggles as they find other occupants in each of their “would be” homes. Despite the challenges, the bird couple keeps looking and finally they discover the best spot for a nest, according to Mrs. Bird of course, which happens to be the attic of a church. But the church has a bell and it sends Mrs. Bird fleeing. As expected, Mr. Bird is in his own world busy chirping about the best nest because he’s just so pleased with his nest. Mr. Bird begins to think the worst when Mrs. Bird doesn’t come home. He believes she’s been eaten; he can’t find her. Now, I’m no children’s book author, but what is Mrs. Bird thinking? She just leaves without saying a word? Not even a simple, “Let’s get out of here, this attic has bells!” No, she just flies off. Maybe that’s how
birds act, but I find Mrs. Bird’s reaction more like what I’d expect from a squirrel. The distraught Mr. Bird keeps looking for her and crashes into his old home during a storm. When inside, he finds Mrs. Bird. He says, “You? Here?” Probably not what I would have said to Mrs. Bird, but after all, they are birds. Despite the Mrs. Bird drama, my little girls love the book. They love the idea of a “best nest”. So each week we trek to the nearby park and attempt to build the best nest for our local birds. No one occupies these masterpieces, but I’m not surprised, we are building nest showpieces, not functional dwellings. After all, that’s what most Mrs. Birds want. I’ve been spending some considerable time thinking about how my business builds nests. Are they the best? Are they showpieces or functional for whatever bird is buying them? Are we constantly understanding and recognizing that “the best nest” is a relative term? After all I’ve learned that one man’s best nest, might be another woman’s starter nest.

Future plans include classes on antique wood-graining, wiring lamps, and antique appraising, to name a few.

It’s in the details: Adding the “wow factor” to your basement BASEMENTS By Randy Sorrell If amazing, wow and fantastic are words not used to describe your lower level (previously referred to as a basement) it likely has to do with the details or lack thereof. Of course, your lower level could still be naked and unfinished. Here’s a look at 3 low cost / high value customizations that work not only in your lower level, but other rooms as well.
LIGHTING
Especially in sunlight starved rooms, recessed ceiling lights are one of the most important elements for livability. Consider employing multiple, independent dimmer switches around the different living zones or work stations. That will allow one group of friends to enjoy the Indianapolis Colts game on the big screen, while others laugh at the bar or play a game of pool. The featured photo is evidence of the drama that suspended lights command, as do wall sconces. For the brave and daring, creative thinking can result in interesting uses for colored rope lighting from romantic to eclectic.
PORTICO
This simple nook was created for a specific piece of sculpture. A low watt hidden light highlights the area. The same construction principle can be employed for bookshelves or to display any collection. Need to spruce up a stale area of your house? Try employing a few of these details and introduce amazing, wow and fantastic into your description.
WALLS
What you choose do with your walls can really make the space flourish. Often, using color will be sufficient but for a really custom look, but consider also adding a faux texture or rich, authentic paneling to one or more of the walls. The project photo shows how multiple colors marry
www.youarecurrent.com
up against real, easy to install panelized brick our team installed. A bank of wood paneled sliding doors installed on the same project separates a
massive storage area and affords the homeowner easy access to the hidden goodies. The doors were painted and art hung to increase its appeal.

The derring-do’s of design: What can you do to refresh your home?
DISPATCHES » At-home manicure – If you're squeamish about having someone push back your cuticles or cutting your nails too short, try giving yourself an athome manicure with this all-inclusive kit from Kiss. Skip buying your own bottles of expensive nail lacquers and head to the salon for just a polish change —most charge under $10 to swap your color. Kiss Professional Manicure Kit, $9.99; walgreens.com. -www.lifestyle.msn.com » Prep your razor – To extend the life of your razor a few days and ensure a smoother shave, drizzle some olive oil on the blade, suggests Cindy Barshop, owner of Completely Bare in New York City. "The oil prevents rust and product build-up, which can cause nicks." -www.prevention.com » 50s fashion making a comeback? – According to Elle Magazine, 50s-inspired fashions, like the Louis Vuitton creation pictured, are making a comeback and are one of the hotter fall trends being displayed on the runways. -www.elle.com » Get rolled-up sleeves back to original shape – Knitwear of almost any kind is susceptible to stretching because of the natural elasticity of knitting, and that's why you should never store your sweaters on hangers. To get the cuffs — or for that matter any other part of your sweater — back into line, hand wash it with a knit-specific detergent like Woolite in lukewarm water before ringing it out gently and laying it flat on a towel to dry. This will relax and straighten the fibers and help the sweater return to its original shape. -www.esquire.com » Perfect foundation for dry skin – According to skincare expert Paula Begoun, Women who need medium to full coverage and are looking for moisturizing texture should try an oil-based foundation. The emollient in the ingredients helps the skin look very dewy and moist, which can minimize the appearance of wrinkles and give the skin a healthy glow. Products Worth Trying: Clinique Supermoisture Makeup ($23) and Dior DiorSkin Ecalt Satin ($42).

INTERIORS By Vicky Earley Do learn your true style and remain true to it. Knowing what you really love, not what you are told to love is the only insurance that your decorating will endure. Keep a file of great decorating ideas from magazines and look for the common denominator. Do fall utterly and totally in love with something. It could be a fabric, an area rug, or art. The item should embody both the color scheme of the room as well as the style and mood you hope to create. Do relax when it comes to mixing woods and metals. Look at the goal as flow with families of color and texture rather than dead-on matching. Do dress your floors. Nothing anchors a space, creates interest, and cozies up a room like an area rug. You can create conversational groupings in your living room easily by just adding a rug or two. If you’re feeling daring, layer area rugs for a mix-and-match look that’s fun, easy, and dramatic. Do dress the walls with something other than prints poorly framed. Wall art can run the gamut in cost. Look at items that are not typically placed on the wall. Fabrics, architecW A T E R

tural salvage, and china collections are just a few items that can provide options beyond the expected. Do purchase investment pieces first such as upholstered furnishings, rugs, and draperies. Good design is like a game of chess so these are the pieces that will dictate future design decisions.
Do use the principle of repetition when planning shapes, colors, fabrics, and patterns. One silver accent in a room may look like an afterthought but three silver elements of differing size and texture will contribute to the overall effect. Do purge your home of dated light fixtures. Nothing says 1986 like a bright brass chandelier. Do have the courage to rid your home of decorating mistake. Bad choices do not improve with time. Do construct a color scheme from an inspiration that you love. First find a print fabric or rug with all of the colors that make your heart sing and then edit out, repaint, or recover items that don’t fit with the plan. Do appoint your home appropriate to the quality of the structure. Furnishing a home that is beautifully built with cheap furnishings ends up as a cheap looking house, and this will have an impact on eventual resale.

DISPATCHES » Feed fixed dogs less – Give fixed dogs less food than their all-natural kin, says Susan Lauten of Pet Nutrition Consulting. "Spaying or neutering can cut calorie needs by up to 30 percent," says Lauten. "The loss of sex hormones causes a reduction in activity, a reduction in muscle mass and a loss of instinctual drive to reproduce." -www.pawnation.com » Dog expo – On September 6 from 6 to 8 p.m., the Monon Community Center Waterpark & Central Park will combine two of Carmel Clay Parks and Recreation’s largest dog events into one. CCPR has partnered with the Low Cost Spay & Neuter Clinic to offer Vaccines for both dogs and cats. There will also be local vendors and pets available for adoption. Visit www.lowcostclinic.org for the full-itemized list of prices. Then, bring your pooch for a dip in the pool. Dogs must be on a leash until they have entered the water, and the fee is $6 per dog. The fee for vaccinations are dependent upon personal needs of each pet and are set by the clinic. » Do dark cats cause more allergies? – A small study in 2000 found that cats with dark-colored fur are more likely to set off an allergic reaction in their owners, but the conclusion wasn’t completely clear. A later study found no effect of fur color on allergies but that hasn’t stopped the questioning. Scientists in New York are now planning a larger study to provide a definitive answer. Scientists have already proven, however, that male cats produce more allergens than females. -www.pawnation.com
Spaying, neutering pets good medicine and, besides, it’s the law PETS By Rebecca Stevens In an effort to get a handle on the pet overpopulation problem in Hamilton County, a mandatory spay-neuter ordinance was enacted in 2008. Most people, however, are unaware that the law exists or its exact requirements. Under the provisions of the Hamilton County Ordinance, “any person owning or having custody of a dog or cat which is older than six months of age, which has not been sterilized and for which the person owning or having custody of such an animal does not have a written certification from a licensed veterinarian stating that it is not in such animal’s best medical interest to be sterilized, but in no case after the dog or cat has attained the age of nine months. If the animal is older than 9 months of age and is not spayed or neutered a breeder’s permit is required.” There are so many benefits to spaying or neutering your pet that go beyond controlling the pet population. Neutering a male cat or dog by six months of age prevents testicular cancer, prostate disease and hernias. Spaying a female cat or dog helps prevent pyometra and breast cancer. Having this done before the first heat offers the best protection from these diseases. Breast cancer can be fatal in about 50 percent of female dogs and 90 percent of female cats. Additionally, un-neutered dogs are three times more likely to bite than those who are neutered. For legitimate breeders or those who have a valid reason for not spaying or neutering their dog or cat, a free breeder’s permit may be obtained through the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Depart-

What our town needs is a Small-music venue for teens Commentary By Jenna Larson I like music. In fact, I like it a lot. And concerts are kind of my thing. The screaming. The moshing. The sweaty, disgusting mess I am by the end. I love it. All of it. The only problem is that I live in Noblesville. I hate to be the typical teenager complaining about an admittedly incredible place to grow up, but it’s true. Sure, we have Verizon, and yeah, I’ve been to shows and events there. But other than Warped Tour, which only comes around once a year, there aren’t many artists performing at said venue that I would consider worth the money and effort to go see. The bands I like to see are mostly new pop/ rock groups who tour in a van and dream of one day having a song on the radio. Does Lady Gaga come out after her shows and have real conversations with her fans? I think not. Does John Mayer hang out at his merch table and sell his own shirts? Not quite. The bands I like do what Gaga and Mayer don’t There are places in Indy like The Emerson

His successor is expected to be named soon. » Methodist Preschool enrollment – Enrollment is open for Noblesville Methodist Preschool and Parent’s Day Out. The first day of preschool is Sept. 3 at the Noblesville First United Methodist Church, 2051 Monument St., Noblesville. The preschool program educates ages 2-6.

and The Dojo, where one can see these kinds of bands, but there’s the long drive and the sketchy environment. My parents don’t exactly feel comfortable with their 16-year-old daughter driving down there in an unreliable, old car armed with nothing but a camera and $40. Outside the comfort of wonderful suburbia. At night. I can’t blame them. All I’m saying is that if our town is looking for something to improve on, why not start with a little venue for teens to come jam to live music? It sure beats going to the movies for the onethousandth time. Jenna Larson is a junior at Noblesville High School and is opinions editor for The Mill Stream.
Bragg completed 92 hours of instruction to earn certification in IASBO’s chief business officer. » Aviation can be cool at school – Children dressed up in authentic pilot uniforms and had their picture taken standing beside and sitting inside a helicopter in a recent “transportation” them program at the Goddard School of Noblesville, which offers programs like this as part of its preschool curriculum. Before pictures were taken, a presentation was given about aviation. For a tour of the school call (317 )770-7225. » Noblesville schools rank highly – Hazel Dell Elementary School ranks third, Forest Hill 16th and Hinkle Creek 20th among all public elementary schools in Hamilton and Marion counties and the portions of Boone, Hancock, Hendricks, Johnson, Morgan and Shelby counties that are closest to Indianapolis, according to the September issue of Indianapolis Monthly magazine.

According to the report, the six pieces of data included attendance rates, class size, average years of teacher experience, and three types of information based on ISTEP+ scores.
