Genelle’s daughter-in-law Heather is direct, “The tumor was pressing on her spinal cord. I knew things had to happen quickly.” At Community North, they did. “She wasn’t getting responsive care where she lived so we flew her up here. The next day she was seeing the doctor,” says Heather. The affiliation between Community Hospital North and East and MD Anderson Cancer Network™ is what impressed Genelle and Heather the most. “When you find out MD Anderson is number one* in the nation it removes any doubt,” says Genelle. Heather adds, “My sense of confidence came from their sense of urgency.” Cancer is proof that there are no dumb questions. So keep asking. And take comfort in knowing that the answers start here.

No longer third class?
By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com The council table is about to get crowded as the size of local government may increase. City attorney Mike Howard pregovernment sented an ordinance to the common council to consider changing Noblesville’s designation of a “third-class” city to “second-class” city at the Nov. 12 meeting. Howard said the title change is allowed under state statute if a city has more than 35,000 people on the most recent U.S. Census and its council passes an ordinance to do so. Noblesville has grown from 28,000 to 53,000 within the past 10 years. Howard said the difference between the two classifications is a “broader representation” and an increase in the number of officials. A “secondcity” has six districts and three at-large members for nine total members. It also has a clerk for record keeping and a controller (financial officer) who is appointed by the mayor. “I have strong concerns about the cost to the city. Current cities in ‘second-class’ have eco-
nomic situations that are not favorable. At some point that could happen here,” council member Stephen Wood said. “I see pros and cons, but I see more cons than pros.” “I’d be careful to compare to other cities, they are different than who we are and what we are,” Council President Roy Johnson said. Noblesville is one of six “third class cities” eligible for second city status. The others include Carmel, Columbus, Greenwood, Jeffersonville and Portage. The common council will revisit the topic at a later meeting. If approved, Howard said the change would not take effect until Jan. 1, 2016. Know more – “Second-class” cities have a population of at least 35,000 and up to 600,000 at time of designation, and have a nine-member city council and an elected clerk. Current “second-class” cities include Anderson, Bloomington, East Chicago, Evansville, Fort Wayne, Gary, Hammond, Kokomo, Lafayette, Lawrence, Marion, Michigan City, Mishawaka, Muncie, New Albany, Richmond, South Bend and Terre Haute. Indianapolis is the only “first-class” city in Indiana under state law.
Noblesville fourth ‘best small city’ to move to – For the second consecutive week, Noblesville has been recognized nationally as a best place to live. Movoto Real Estate recently ranked the 10 best small cities in America to move to. Noblesville ranked fourth on the list – the only Indiana location in the top 10. According to its report, Movoto said,“Noblesville’s median home price is six percent below the national average at $186,300 and there is one home on the market for every 84 residents there. The unemployment rate in Noblesville is 11 percent less than the national average at 6.4 percent.” To determine the superior small cities (populations under 60,000), Movoto collected data on cost of living, crime, median household income, unemployment rate, median home price and homes for sale per capita.

NPA artists shine in showcase By Mark Johnson • mark@currentnoblesville.com This month, Noblesville’s Nickel Plate Arts is offering a new forum to spotlight its eight resident artists. arts The Studio Artists Showcase features the works of artists Lesley Haflich, Michael Janosky, Cassandra Medley, Karen Miles, Bruce Neckar, Stephen Osborne, Rodney Reveal and John Reynolds. “Basically, each artist has taken a space and made a vignette of what they’re about,” Haflich said. “One of our artists, Karen Miles, is really experimenting. Her work is expressionistic with abstract leanings. Mine is more of a traditional expressionistic style. I do a lot with plein air painting.” The showcase, which runs now through Nov. 23, includes master drawings, paintings, prints and photography. All featured artwork is avail-
able for purchase to the public. “I have several new pieces I started this past summer,” Janosky said. “I do primarily landscapes of northwestern Indiana.” “All of our art is Indiana-based, with the exception of Rodney Reveal, who goes out West,” Neckar said. “John Reynolds and I both use wildlife as subjects, but John does more with painting. Mine is more drawing and mixed media.” So what sets this show case apart from previous Nickel Plate exhibitions? “We’re all like brothers and sisters,” said Medley, whose specializes in photography. “This is the first time that we’ve all worked together!” “This one is different because of the leadership of the artists,” Neckar said. “The artists really spearheaded this and got the ball rolling.” For more information, visit www.nickelplatearts.org or call 452-3690.

The picture to the left was painted by Robbie, a 2-year-old blond-haired, blue-eyed Hamilton County resident who died at the hands of his abusive father in 1991. Robbie and his 3-year-old sister, Brittany, were killed when their drunk father drove the family car through a stop sign and over an embankment. They died at his hands just as he had threatened their mother would happen if she left him.
Each year Alternatives shelters 400 women and children and serves another 300 victims through outreach programs. Hamilton County residents comprise 37 percent of the victims served by Alternatives. Thanks to your United Way contributions, thousands of people like Anna are able to take the first step over the bridge from the life they want to leave behind to one of long-term security.
Robbie’s painting is a reminder that every Hamilton County neighborhood has at least one home where violence is occurring. Victims are paying a high price— often the ultimate price—at the hands of their abuser.
For more than 90 years, United Way has helped provide people in need with basic necessities like food, clothing, shelter and access to services that keep them safe and healthy. By helping people meet their most urgent needs today, we’re supplying them with the tools and knowledge to strive for a better life.

Though Robbie and Brittany’s story ended tragically, hundreds of other Hamilton County residents are getting the tools and support they need to survive domestic violence. Anna was one of the “lucky” ones. She came to Alternatives Incorporated—a United Way agency providing shelter, education and intervention for victims of domestic abuse— after law enforcement rescued her. Having beaten her unconscious, Anna’s husband attempted to drown her. Anna’s message to other victims: “You are worthy to live a life of freedom. Alternatives gave me back my freedom.”

POW Charles Layton tells his life story and capture in memoir By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com “If I die, who would care?” These sobering thoughts ran through the mind of then 22-year-old Sgt. Charles Layton, a U.S. Army Ranger, as he lay cover story huddled with 36 other men from various U.N. forces in a dark, stinking mud hut somewhere in frigid North Korea. For 17 weeks, that 18 by 36-foot hut served as their prison from November 1951 to February 1952. “It was tough on me but I could swallow it,” Layton, now 85, said. “It was 50 degrees below zero in Korea. It was one of the coldest winters in Korean history.” The daring escape of the 37 Layton prisoners - led by Layton - and other events in the Noblesville resident’s life are chronicled in Layton’s memoir, “A True Story of a Korean War POW/MIA: Escaped With Honor.”

Childhood
Layton’s story began with his birth on Nov. 6, 1928 in St. Louis, Mo. “I was a Depression baby, which is not a healthy thing to be,” he said. During his childhood, Layton’s family moved to Frankfort, Ind., and opened a dry cleaning business. When it was unsuccessful the family moved to Chicago. “The day school was out I was on a bus headed to a farm in southern Illinois and stayed until the day before school started. For five years I spent all summer working on the farm,” he said. “I was looking for a place to belong. I used animals as a substitute for human beings. When I grew older work took that place.” In the summer of 1944, a 16-year-old Layton was hired from the riding stable to work with horses on the set of “This Time for Keeps” starring Esther Williams, Jimmy Durante and Sharon McManus at Mackinac Island, Mich. Layton received his draft notice three days before his 22nd birthday. He went through training very quickly - as troops were needed in Korea - and was soon deployed to Japan and then Pusan Harbour, South Korea. Layton remembers begin “sick as a dog” on his voyage over aboard a troop ship in 1951. “I didn’t care what soil I was getting off on, I was getting off that boat,” he said. As an Army Ranger, Layton served as a forward observer for the 2nd Infantry Division and the 7th Armored Division. “I was out in front all the time to guide incoming infantry. Out on patrol we’d observe any movement, sound or sight and report back,” he
The stories Charles Layton told Tammy Elmore as the two worked with Meals on Wheels of Hamilton County were the foundation for the two to write Layton’s memoir, “Escape with Honor.”
said. On one such expedition, Layton’s patrol spotted a little boy standing over the body of his mother who had been dead for several days. The American soldiers took the 5-year-old boy back to their base and cared for him. Layton became particularly close to the boy before he was ordered away from the base. “I never saw him again. I thought of him over

the years a million times,” he said. Layton and 36 others were captured in the rugged, mountainous region near the 38th parallel when the North Korean army “overran the flank and captured us.”
Prisoner of war
The prisoners once went eight days without food and when they did receive nourishment it was “very, very watery.” To stay warm during the winter, the captured soldiers would use hemp rice sacks thrown into the hut by guards for warmth. Soldiers also huddled together to share body heat. “There was no latrine so we dug holes along the walls,” Layton said, adding that when someone had to go at night everyone had to wake up and move so soldiers often just went where they laid. “We saw daylight only when we were taken outside for roll call or to be beaten.” The conditions and daily beatings took a toll physically and mentally on the soldiers. “I had to stay up. There were six guys mentally not taking it well. We tried to hide those guys when the guards came in because they sought out the ones they knew they were getting to the worst. When they had one of those guys I’d cause a problem and they’d drop that guy and take me out. I did it to help protect them because they were getting more fragile by the day,”
Layton said. “They burned my hands and beat my feet with a rod. I can’t walk barefoot anymore.” The prisoners heard the noise of laughing every six weeks as alcohol and women were shipped to the camp to entertain the guards. Layton said the soldiers planned an escape attempt for the 18th week because it would be a little warmer and less snow would be on the ground. “We noticed those nights that the guards were intoxicated,” he said. “We rehearsed this so many times.” However, supplies arrived a week early causing a change in plans. Layton quickly overcame and killed the two guards and the soldiers escaped into the night before a Cessna L-19 plane spotted the men and American forces came out and met them.
Free man
Layton was discharged from service in 1952, after suffering a 60 percent hearing loss. He was an insurance agent in Muncie, Ind., before working in a meat-packing plant in Philadelphia. On his way to work one day, Layton passed a Mister Softee factory and decided to own his own truck and move his family back to Indiana. While in Fort Wayne, Ind., Layton’s truck evolved into an ice cream and doughnut shop before the building burned down. Out of work, Layton began his career in public service. He served as personnel and labor relations director for Fort Wayne Mayor Robert Armstrong, was manager of Allen County’s three license branches and eventually became the Indiana commissioner of the Bureau of Motor Vehicles.

The book
For his service, Layton was awarded the Purple Heart, the Combat Infantry Badge and the Korean Presidential Citation. “My story was untold for more than 60 years,” he said. “While I am proud of my service to my country, I buried the trauma of my experience in the Korean War deep in my heart and mind. The pain associated with my capture, torture and escape – both physical and emotional – was a terrible burden that I chose never to share. Why would I want someone else to share that pain? I didn’t want anyone to have pity on me or feel sorry for me.” Serving as a volunteer at the Meals on Wheels of Hamilton County, Layton developed a friendship with Tammy Elmore, director of marketing and volunteer services, that resulted in Layton’s memoir. “Things would be said like ‘you should write a book,’” he said. Two years and four months later the duo had an outline and manuscript. Elmore’s friend, Georgiann Coons, then became involved in transforming the manuscript into a book. Another year and a few months later it was submitted any accepted by Wine Press. “We got sick of reading our own book,” Elmore said. “There would be no book without the two of them,” Layton said. “It’s my story, their book.” “Escaped With Honor” is available at The Wild Bookstore and Barnes & Noble. Copies can also be purchased online at www.amazon.com and www. winepressbooks.com.

Badmouthing the wealthy
Since President Barack Obama loves to badmouth the wealthy, we thought we’d take a moment to defend them. Well, one of them, anyway. Bill Gates, of Microsoft fame (Yes, he built that!). As you may have heard, through the work of The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, he has helped to eradicate polio in India. Now, we know Obama won’t brag about this, but we will. Eradicated polio in India! Just to be clear, Obama is now increasing the taxes on people like Gates, thinking it is more important to send yet more money to Washington. Oh, sure, that money will be much better spent in D.C. But, we should be fair: Obama did eradicate any semblance of a viable healthcare Website, didn’t he? ••• Now that our Liar in Chief is backpedaling on his “If you like your (health-insurance) plan, you can keep it” promise, we continue to see more of Obama’s true character (or lack of it). We believe this all amounts to nothing more than a bait-and-switch tactic, which, in the private sector, is illegal. We also find it amusing listening to Obama refer to these soon-to-be-cancelled policies as sub-par. Well, shouldn’t it be our choice whether we want to keep a sub-par product? After all, if it weren’t for America’s love of all things sub-par, you wouldn’t be in office, Mr. President, would you? ••• Hey, just asking: Where did the Libertarian Party go?

Donations needed
The art of not shaving Commentary by Terry Anker In solidarity with my fellow Y chromosomes, this year I am participating in the annual ritual known by the rather clever portmanteau, Movmember (http://us.movember.com). Much like the wearing of pink in October for National Breast Cancer Awareness Month shows solidarity and support for those affected by the disease, men are encouraged to allow the hair on their upper lip to grow unfettered for 31 days to bring forward discussions of prostate and testicular cancer and other health concerns related to males. While the international movement really only calls upon us to grow mustaches, I’ve decided to make the awkward transition from clean-shaven to burly by allowing for a full beard – perhaps to be reduced only at month’s end. Like much of life’s passage this has been a learning experience. Initially, I undertook the mission as more of a lark than a serious commitment. Having not seen my face under fur, it struck my curiosity. What I’ve found is that folks are very curious
as to why my normal, hairless facial appearance has been altered. Several times per day, conversations begin with some remark about the motivation for my unshorn countenance and end with often intimate retellings of how men’s cancers have affected them or those they love. In a whisker of time, I’ve learned formerly unknown personal details of men and women that I’ve known for many years. Sometimes the stories are heartwarming and other times they are tragic. But a silly beard turned out to be the key to open the dialogue. I’ve also taken note that these things itch – a lot. Those experienced in matters hirsute tell me that the sensitivity to my new outwear will pass in a matter of days. But even as the scratching diminishes, I hope our attention to men’s health remains.

We are on the brink of the holiday season and I haven’t yet put in a shameless plug for my book. (Gasp!) But no worries, I’m going to do it right now, leaving you plenty of humor time to make a huge dent in your shopping list and put some muchneeded ca-ching in my bank account. So without further ado … buy my book! Titled “Peace Out!”, this uniquely named anthology retails for an amazingly low, low price of $15.99, making it the perfect gift for friends and foes alike. Didn’t know I’d written one? Well now you do, so buy it. You can easily order 10 or 20 authentic copies at either Amazon.com or Barnesandnoble.com, and still have time to get your kids to basketball practice. What’s it about? Me, of course. Along with my bald husband and crazy kids and a since-deceased gecko, among other things. In a nutshell, “Peace Out!” is a collection of the best articles from my first three years of writing for Current. That means for most of you, it’s brand new hilarious material, including but not limited to, how Doo came to be called Doo and my infamous observations of a certain 2007 PTO fundraiser which nearly got me fired. Even if you’ve had the honor of reading my stuff since the beginning (lucky you), my book will be a glorious walk down memory lane. (Who can forget the time my 3-year-old dropped trow in the main lobby of the
library to the absolute horror of a sour-faced old biddy? That’s pure comedy, people.) But wait, there’s more. If you order now, you can also have the pleasure of reading my favorite hate mail, which I have conveniently collected for you in an easily accessible appendix. Still not convinced? How about this angle: You’d be helping out a public school teacher who is currently working 10 hours a day without a contract. No? Nothing? Well, if not for me, then think about how many of your out-of-town friends and family who would just love to come home to a real, honest, highly entertaining look at parenting and marriage, but sadly cannot because they don’t receive Current. It’s a disgrace, certainly, but now you can help. Buy my book and send some Christmas/Hanukkah love their way. What’s a measly $15.99 (plus shipping and handling) when it comes to the happiness of your peeps? Bottom line, folks, the last check from my publishing company, Dog Ear, was only $3.79, profit from my total book sales in October, and I only have a few weeks until Santa is scheduled for a drive-by. Consider helping a gal out during this holiday season through the purchase of my book: Peace Out! (Now available!)

I’ve been getting some peculiar e-mails lately. I realize this does not set me apart in any way. Let’s face it, if you have access to a computer and the Weird Wide Internet humor thingie – and that takes in about 85 percent of us – you’re going to get some e-mails that raise your eyebrows, with subjects ranging from untold riches awaiting in Nigerian bank accounts to methods of enlarging (or diminishing) various body parts, to faucets. No kidding. I get a lot of messages about faucets. It all comes back to something I’ve repeated at the dinner table every Thanksgiving for the last (mumble) years: Give us humans an amazing piece of technology, and we’ll find a way to abuse it. Invent the car, we’ll run it into a tree. Put the telephone in widespread use, and immediately someone will start calling during supper to ask for money. Come up with TV, and you’ll get 600 channels with nothing worth watching. We can’t help it. We are attracted to shiny things, but our first impulse always seems to be figuring out ways to take the shine off of them. It should be apparent that I am used to a certain amount of weirdness in my inbox. In fact, I may be more accustomed to it than most, just by virtue of not being wired the same as an average human. Even so, occasionally something
comes in over the transom that is unusual, even for me, and that gets me back to the beginning: I’ve been getting some peculiar e-mails lately. I open my mailbox and there they are. The sender: “Bra.” That’s all it says. Just “Bra.” The subject: “Buying a bra? Check out these tips.” Wow. Did they get a wrong number. I feel like writing back: Dear Bra: Thanks so much for your recent e-mail. It was very thoughtful of you to assume that I would need some tips about buying you, seeing as how I am a guy and can honestly say that this is one thing I know absolutely nothing about purchasing. However, upon reflection I have determined that I would like to keep it this way. Your pal, Mike. P.S. If you see your friend Faucets, tell him that I’m not interested in what he’s selling, either. Thanks. That should do it, don’t you think? Then I can go use the one feature of e-mail technology that I have come to appreciate most deeply – the delete button. But not before I claim all those riches awaiting me in Nigeria. Mike Redmond is an author, journalist, humorist and speaker. Write him at mike@ mikeredmondonline. com or P.O.

Hauling out the holly at Beef & Boards
By Karen Kennedy • karenk@youarecurrent.com As Auntie Mame says, “We need a little Christmas, right this very minute.” “A Beef and Boards Christtheatre mas,” is a healthy holiday dose of singing, dancing, festive costumes and, of course, turkey with all the trimmings. This year’s show features an all-new quartet presenting several new arrangements in a glittering celebration of the season. The show opens Nov. 29 and runs through Dec. 23. “This show is our Christmas greeting to the city,” said Beef and Boards spokesperson Patricia Rettig. “We have families who have included us in their Christmas tradition since their children first came to see Santa, and those children are in college now. There are thirty-two performances, so you really can’t miss it.” This year’s production features sixteen singer-dancers and an on-stage band of seven. Several of the lead cast members are currently in the cast of “Les Miserables,” including featured vocalist Kelly Teal Goyette, along with Bobbi Bates, Peter Scharbrough and Dominic Sheahan-Stahl. Newcomer Emily Rogge rounds out the group. Goyette, who made her Beef and Boards debut in “Les Miserables,” spends much of her time on the road. She hails from Williston,

and “Shrek the Musical.” “I’ve spent more time subletting my apartment than sitting in it,” she said. And Goyette said she is excited to be a part of the Christmas show. “I get to sing my favorite Christmas song of all time, ‘O Holy Night,’” Goyette said. “I’m also doing several songs that are new to me; it’s great to learn Christmas songs I’ve never heard of before. And the members of the quartet have said that the new arrangements are very cool; some jazzy, some bluesy. They’re all very excited about how the rehearsals are going.” In addition to some new holiday songs, the set list includes traditional holiday favorites and songs designed to get toes tapping, such as “Boogie Woogie Santa Claus” and “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree.” Returning audience members will recognize the familiar faces of cohosts Deb Wims and Kenny Shepard, who have hosted the show since its inception. And, of course, there’s a star on a backstage dressing room door with Santa’s name on it, so bring your list and don’t forget to be nice.

Fairy tale comes to Tarkington
17
BELFRY THEATRE
By Karen Kennedy • karenk@youarecurrent.com
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a multitude of pictures, combined with lyrical words and music, must make for theatre an evening that is anything but sleepy. That combination can be found when New York-based master storyteller, musician, poet and actor David Gonzalez brings his unique presentation of “Sleeping Beauty” to the Tarkington Theatre Nov. 22 and 23. “This is my interpretation of the classic fairy tale,” said Gonzalez in a phone interview from Chicago. “It is told entirely in rhymed verse, accompanied by musical and visual elements: a wonderful video, a ‘living storybook’ if you will, created by Karen Jenson, and a lush, musical tapestry in the form of Bach’s Goldberg Variations performed on piano by Daniel Kelly. The show has lots of layers to it, but it also stays true to the essence of the story.” “I have performed this show from New York to Alaska to Florida,” Gonzalez said. “And now we come to Carmel. And this show is particularly special because Karen Jenson’s family is all from Carmel, so the whole family will be at the show to celebrate.” The show combines poetry, visual storytelling and music in a developing art form that Gonzalez continues to create. It’s just another extension of his talents. He is a Drama-Desk-nominated artist who has toured nationally and internationally.

BBQ Turkey
Original recipe makes 12 servings Ingredients: 2 cups butter, divided; 1 (15 pound) whole turkey, neck and giblets removed; 1/4 cup chicken soup base; 3 sweet onions, peeled and cut into wedges; 5 apples, cored and cut into wedges; 2 tablespoons minced garlic, or to taste; 1 (750 milliliter) bottle dry white wine Directions: Preheat a gas grill for low heat. Rub some of the butter all over the turkey, inside and out, then rub all over with chicken base. Cut remaining butter into cubes and toss with onions, apples, and garlic in a large bowl. Stuff the bird with this mixture and place in a disposable aluminum roasting pan. Fold the turkey skin around the neck area to cover the hole and then turn the turkey over and pour wine into the opening at the other end until the turkey is full or the bottle is empty. Set the turkey breast side up. Place the roasting pan on the grill and cover loosely with aluminum foil. If you have a pop up timer or heat safe meat thermometer, insert it into the turkey breast. Close the lid. Roast until the temperature in the breast reads

170 degrees F (75 degrees C) and the temperature in the thickest part of the thigh reads 180 degrees C (80 degrees C), about 4 hours depending on the temperature of your grill. When the temperature is getting close, remove the aluminum foil covering the turkey and allow it to brown during the final minutes of cooking. If it starts to brown too much, just cover it back up. Allow the turkey to rest for at least 20 minutes before carving. 1/2 cup cream until it begins to thicken. Gradually add sugar; beat until soft peaks form. In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger and salt; fold in whipped cream. In another bowl, beat the cream cheese, confectioners’ sugar and remaining cream until thickened. Spread half of pumpkin mixture over ladyfingers in the dish. Dip remaining ladyfingers; arrange over the top. Top with remaining pumpkin mixture and the cream cheese mixture. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight. In a microwave, heat caramel sauce; stir in bourbon. Serve warm with tiramisu.

Preparing for the unexpected – What happens to student loan debt when the borrower dies? The answer: It depends, based on the type of loan. The U.S. Dept. of Education says federal student loans will be discharged upon death. Parent PLUS federal loans can be discharged if either the student or the parent borrower dies. With private student loans the answer is more complex, but generally lenders will not forgive loans after death. It’s common for private student loans to require a co-signer, often the student’s parent. In most cases, banks expect co-signers to assume responsibility for the loan after a death. There are exceptions: Sallie Mae’s “Smart Option Student Loan,” launched in 2009, forgives loans when students die. But generally, banks will attempt to collect payment from the deceased’s estate, and then turn to co-signers. Source: MSN Money

Fender-bender preparedness Commentary by Jamie Ianigro
Question from Harold P. from Fishers: We got our first dose of winter weather this week, and I was reminded that insurance people completely forget how to drive when snow hits the ground. I witnessed a minor fender-bender and am wondering what I need to do if that happens to me. Response from Jamie Ianigro: Experiencing an automobile accident is always scary, no matter how minor. Your independent insurance agent should be able to provide you with a card to keep in your glove box to remind you of everything you need to do if an accident occurs. Here is what we recommend. 1. Take a deep breath and assess the situation. Get your vehicle and passengers out of further harm if the vehicle is still operable. 2. Make sure that no one in your vehicle requires immediate medical attention. Check the occupants of any other vehicle involved next. 3. Call the police. It doesn’t matter how minor the accident is. Having a police report filed will make your claim process much smoother. 4. Exchange insurance information and record the details. Make sure the other driver’s insurance is not out of date. Get their phone number, address, license plate number and the make and model of their car to make filing your claim easier. 5. Pull out your camera phone and snap some pictures of your car from every angle and of any damage it now has.
6. Obtain a copy of the police report and call your independent agent to file a claim. Driving without insurance coverage in Indiana is illegal and a great way to end up with a suspended license or serious financial problems if you are involved in an accident. The starting point for insurance in Indiana is the required state-minimum coverage. The minimums are $25,000 per injured person, $50,000 per accident and $10,000 for property damage. The current cost of medical expenses and auto repair make it pretty easy to see that those amounts are not going to get you very far when it’s time to settle a claim. They also provide you zero protection from motorists who drive around without insurance or with the inadequate state minimum insurance. I recommend limits of $250,000 per injured person, $500,000 per accident and $100,000 for property damage with an endorsement to protect you from uninsured and underinsured motorists. These raised limits will also allow you to add a personal umbrella policy to further protect you in extreme cases. You can also get a nice discount by packaging these policies together with your homeowners policy. Adding comprehensive and collision coverages and adjusting the cost of your deductibles is something you should talk with your independent agent about. Let me know if you have any further questions about this and drive safely. Jamie Ianigro is with Shepherd Insurance & Finanacial Services. Have an insurance question you need answered?

Building permits up 20 percent news@currentnoblesville.com Central Indiana building permit reports indicate that single-family permits increased 20 percent in October compared to October housing 2012. There were 4,308 new home permits issued this year compared to the 3,585 issued in 2012. “Although reports indicate a slight decrease in permits from last month, we continue to see a significant increase over last year’s numbers,” said Steve Lains, CEO of the Builders Association of Greater Indianapolis. “Forecasters believe that we will continue to see steady increases in 2014. A slight decrease from last month was expected because of the time of year, but what’s ultimate-
ly important is the year-to-year overall increase which is moving in the right direction.” A recent Kiplinger economic report found that the pent-up demand will continue to elevate permit numbers in 2014. According to that report, housing is critical to the U.S. economy. “It’s not just from home sales, but in state and local government revenue, sales of furniture, appliances, etc., and the spin-off from income earned by construction crews, realtors and more,” the report said. In central Indiana the permits issued through October 2013 are estimated to create a total economic impact of $771 million in local income, $175 million in local taxes and 13,062 local jobs, year to date.

Investing in new countertops Commentary by David Decker
Because they take up so much visual space, countertops are one of the keystones of kitchen design. It’s amazing to see the Indoors difference that new countertops can make in a room, even if all of the other elements (such as flooring or cabinetry) stay the same. On the flip side, damaged or dated looking countertops can drag down the aesthetics and functionality of your kitchen. If you only have the time or money to make a single upgrade in the kitchen, chances are that investing in new countertops is a smart way to go. When selecting new countertops, the first thing you’ll need to consider is the type of material. Each material has certain positive and negative aspects that you should be aware of before making a purchasing decision. Stone (such as granite and quartz) has become one of the most popular choices for homeowners looking to upgrade their kitchen countertops. Stone is easy to clean, durable against heat and resistant to bacterial buildup. It is also scratch-resistant, while other options are not. While stone is a popular choice, it’s far from the only choice. Also available on the market are solid surfaces and laminates. Solid surfaces are engineered from acrylic or polyester plastics, while laminates are made from a plastic that is adhered to particleboard. These physical properties are important to know, because they play a
big role in affecting the functionality of the material. In terms of functionality, stone options are inherently more durable than solid surfaces. Because laminates and solid surfaces can scratch, dirt and bacteria can hide in these crevasses. The decision comes down to your personal preference. Great looking countertops can be made from any of these materials. However, if you are willing to make the investment, choosing a stone material may pay off in the long run. Stone materials are generally more expensive than other options, but they are typically more long lasting and valued by potential homebuyers. If you know that a move might be coming in the near future, stone might be the way to go. With all these options and considerations to weigh, selecting new countertops can be a difficult task. If you’re looking for a little guidance, The Affordable Companies Website is a great resource full of blog posts, links and photos that can help you make the best selection for your home. No two homes require the exact same solution, so get creative and search for a countertop that will improve the look and functionality of your kitchen. David Decker is president of the Affordable Companies, which include Affordable Kitchens and Bathrooms and now Affordable Custom Flooring. They are based in Carmel (575-9540, www.the-affordablecompanies.com). E-mail home improvement questions to david.decker@the-affordablecompanies.com.
