Public provides conceptual input

DISPATCHES
By Lauren Quintanilla • lauren@currentinwestfield.com The public received its first view of conceptual plans for the Grand Junction Plaza project at the May 28 Party on the Patio. The monthly Downtown Westfield Association event grand junction allowed citizens to view and comment on designs from Land Collective, the lead design group for Westfield’s downtown revitalization project. “It’s been receptive. Most of the citizens are embracing it. Some have questions and are cautious but never with pessimism. They want to understand and are interested in the future,” said David A. Rubin, Land Collective’s principal. “It’s fun and exciting for the community. The people of Westfield get a glimpse into the future we’re designing for our grandchildren. It’s a legacy project and I love that.” Rubin credits the success of the group’s projects with empathy-driven design and a synthesis of art, technology and social sciences to create humancentered works. “A successful space is one that’s well-attended,” he said. “Land Collective aspires to render Grand Junction as an extraordinary venue filled with art, architecture, community and life. We have worked with the city to gather some of the most extraordinary talent across design disciplines, in the hope that the future park will continuously heighten one’s experience, no matter when one engages in it.” Rubin said the park’s goal is to be used 365 days a year. “Not that everything has to take place in the parks, but poetry readings to band concerts and ice skating to playing in the fountain. It will be flexible and adaptable,” he said. “People will come here because they know it is here. Other people will covet it. We have high aspirations but I think we can achieve it.” Rubin said the project is in the design phase and will more to the design development phase next. Future phases include construction documentation, bidding and then construction. “A groundbreaking at the end of next spring would be ideal,” he said. City spokeswoman Erin Verplank said the various concepts will be posted on Westfield’s Facebook page for further discussion. Input will be collected until June 20. “This is Westfield’s soul, this is the community. We
Crime – At 5 p.m. April 27, two males (including the one pictured) were recorded stealing cameras from a building in the 17000 block of U.S. 31. Westfield Police officials said between May 25 and 26 the same building received extensive damage to the exterior. Initial estimates are approximately $5,000 in damage. Those with knowledge about the incident or those responsible are asked to call 804-3200 or e-mail cid@westfield.in.gov. Achievement – Indiana University Kokomo had 574 fulltime students earned a minimum 3.5 grade point average and dean’s list honors for the spring semester. Westfield students include Elyse Jayne Clark, Jenna Breanne Crowder, Joanna Limio Davis, Ramona Evoy, Marika Singleton and Heidi Joan Wells. A popular concept choice was “The Circle” which offered a hub inside Grand Junction.
want the community to speak up about what they want downtown,” she said. “ Verplank said the concepts are packaged together and that the best pieces will be collected. “We’re taking a little bit of everything,” she said. “We’re trying to give everybody what they want with what they think Westfield is.” “We’re hoping to gain public input on the concepts that will direct what we want to go on the final design,” Westfield Parks Director Melody Jones said. “Pavilions and hardscapes, this is what is being offered tonight.” Jones said the schematic design will be finished in the next month and half. “You’ll start seeing more of the land use after that,” she said. “This is more about architecture.”

DVD Review The new look of Robocop, starring Joel Kinnaman as noble Detroit cop Alex Murphy, is quite a sight, with black armor and a red eye slit.

Senator holds drug conference
By Ann Craig-Cinnamon • ann@youarecurrent.com The statistics are only getting worse when it comes to drug use in the U.S., in Indiana and right here in Hamilton County. In health 2008, Indiana was one of the top 10 states for the rate-of-pastmonth use of illicit drugs other than marijuana, according to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health. Indiana also has the 17th-highest drug overdose mortality rate in the nation. Indiana is also reporting a rise in heroin use as many addicts shift from more costly and harderto-get prescription opiates to heroin which is a cheaper alternative. Indiana Sen. Joe Donnelly came to Launch Fishers on May 27 to talk about the drug problem with law enforcement, elected officials, and community leaders from Hamilton and Boone counties and to discuss their efforts to combat heroin use and prescription drug abuse, sales, and other associated crimes. Donnelly says he arranged the conference to get their perspective on how he can help make their jobs a little easier and help them face the challenges that they face every day in the war on drugs. “They are working hard every day to cut off the pipeline for drugs that comes in because so much of other crime is related to drug use,” he said. The senator says that the drug problem is across the board.
Indiana Sen. Joe Donnelly held a meeting with law enforcement agencies from Hamilton and Boone counties at Launch Fishers May 27 to discuss drug problems in the counties.
“Hamilton and Boone Counties are such beautiful places but we face the same challenges here that every community faces in this country and we have dedicated law enforcement officials that are dealing with this every single day,” he said. As for the solution, Donnelly says there are things that he can do to help. “We can be of assistance in helping them with task force development, with partnerships with DEA, with being able to help fund grants that provide them with more law enforcement assistance. So, those are the kind of things that, on the federal level, I can help with. Also, what was discussed was the fact that that we have to be tighter at the border in terms of these drugs coming across because most all of them are coming from Mexico,” he said.

City greets walking traveler
By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com On March 12, U.S. Navy veteran Kenyon Eastin began a journey of self-awareness and discovery in Horseshoe Cove, N.J. On May 28, the Utah resident made his way to awareness Hamilton County. “I’m not wandering. I’m walking,” Eastin said, adding his journey will end in San Francisco at the end of this year. While his trip has been life-changing, it also has been tough. “I thought ‘This was not what I was thinking it would be,’ but I made the decision not to give up,” he said, adding a family provided him a warm meal on his first day and their generosity brightened his spirits. “After that first set of people helped me out, that was it. I kept going, and I’ve been going ever since.” Eastin said he thought about walking to raise awareness and funds for the Wounded Warrior project but was afraid he would leave out other worthy charities like United Way. “It wouldn’t be genuine,” he said. “I’m not doing it for any reason but to see my country and meet people.” One of his “road angels” he found pushing his cart of food, supplies and hope was Erin O’Rear. O’Rear was leaving her pottery shop, The Wandering Peacock, on Union Street to make a delivery when she came across Eastin on Ind. 32. “He was walking right around The Pancake

House. I saw him and honked my horn. I heard about him on NPR,” she said. “The voice inside me said, ‘Turn around and talk to this guy.’ I’m so glad I honked my horn and took a chance. I went against everything my dad ever said.” Eastin, who has seen many dilapidated and depressed towns across the nation, said Westfield was vibrant and he enjoyed his visit. “I think the people in Westfield, for lack of a better term, are positive and forward-thinking. Everyone is talking about the future,” he said. Eastin chronicles his journey with photos and thoughts at www.Facebook.com/ KenyonsCoasttoCoastWalk.

Painting his future Ben Littrell plans to turn his art position into business experience By Anna Skinner • news@currentinwestfield.com Ben Littrell, Purdue University sophomore and Westfield High School alumnus, spends his weekends posting flyers around Westfield, Carmel and Noblesville hoping to adCover Story vertise the business he will be running this summer known as Student Painters. A corporation called Young Entrepreneurs Across America oversees Student Painters. Littrell involved himself with Student Painters in hopes of aiding his education at Purdue, where he majors in sales and sales management. Littrell originally began his college career at Butler University, studying pre-pharmacy, but he said he wanted a career with a position where the salary is based on how much work he puts forth. “I have a lot more time to think,” Littrell
said, referring to his new major. “It’s not so much based on course work, and it was a huge transition going from science and textbooks to learning hands on and communicating with speakers. It’s more of a major based off of what kind of person you are.” Littrell first heard of YEAA and Student Painters through his fraternity, Delta Tau Delta. One of his older fraternity brothers thought Littrell had the perfect mindset and connected him with an executive of the company. After landing the position of branch manager for Student Painters over the Westfield, Carmel and Noblesville areas, Littrell set out to market his business. With being in charge of marketing, payroll and site work, Littrell is currently focused on getting the word out about his business. He does so by passing out flyers and providing customers with quotes. “Ben has spent endless hours flier-ing, cold calling, and simply working his tail off every weekend since January,” his mother, Sherry Littrell said. “While others stayed at school having fun on the weekends, Ben was coming home to work. His work ethic has been astounding with having not seen a cent. I am very proud.” Littrell also is looking for high school seniors and underclassmen college students to

fill the positions of the four teams working for him. He still needs about 12 to 15 painters. During the summer when the Student Painters are working on houses, barns and other buildings, the customers do not pay 80 percent of the estimate quoted until after the job is complete. The customer will fill out a report that will then determine what the Student Painters are paid. The Student Painters only do exterior jobs mostly on residential buildings, and Littrell said the teams use Sherwin Williams Super Paint. The payroll accounts are also linked through Sherwin Williams. Although Littrell advocates for advancement through the Student Painters organization, his goal for next year is to use this experience to boost him toward internships more associated with his interest – such as selling for food companies. There is nothing more important on a student’s resume than the experience bullet points. Student Painters provides an opportunity for Littrell to learn a number of skills; including professionalism, determination, time management and conflict resolution. Eventually, Littrell hopes this beginning experience of entrepreneurship will propel him to owning a restaurant one day. “This internship teaches me the basics of how to lead, how to better others, and prepare myself for the ever expanding future of entrepreneurship,” Littrell said. “It’s making me a better individual and better well-rounded so I can understand the aspects of entrepreneurship and running one’s own business.” Littrell said he mostly is excited about earning the firsthand experience that accompanies running his own business instead of sitting in a classroom learning from a textbook. “I want to run my own business,” he said. “I want to interact with individuals and get on that relationship basis because I like interacting and having a large network. I don’t want people to feel like they’re going to work. I want it to be a fun environment.” To contact Littrell with questions regarding applying for a Student Painter position or requesting a residential quote, e-mail him at littrellb3@gmail.com or call 694-4771.

Future Plans
I intend to work for a Fortune 100 food company such as Pepsi-Co or Kraft as a sales representative or executive then use earnings to create a beer garden! If unsuccessful with the second part, I will pursue pharmaceutical sales combining my interests in sales with pharmacy. Pharmacy was my previous major while attending Butler University.

Laying down summertime law
FROM THE BACKSHOP No racism here, Sen. Reid, right? You may have heard that our liberal race baiters are at it again, this time regarding the issue of the name of the Washington Redskins. Recently, while faced with record deficits, out-of-control spending, international ridicule, myriad scandals (Benghazi, IRS profiling, VA hospitals), our legislative giants took time out of their harried schedules to send a letter to the Redskins in which they urged a name change. Just how do these Mensa members juggle all these responsibilities? Anyway, in this letter, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and 49 other senators said, in part: “We urge you and the National Football League to send the same clear message as the NBA did, that racism and bigotry have no place in professional sports.” Well, all we can say is, Reid and his Senate brethren have proven that intelligence and deep thought have no place in the chamber. The debate has raged in recent years, but we don’t know how Redskins is racist. As Redskins General Manager Bruce Allen recently said, “The term Redskins originated as a Native American expression of solidarity.” We salute the Redskins’ ownership, as well as that of the Cleveland Indians and others, in standing firm on a team name in the face of the perpetually offended. Let’s hope it lasts. ••• National Trails Day will be marked June 7 in Westfield at Quaker Park with a great, informative and free event, 10 a.m. to noon, that teaches bicycling kids the rules of the road.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Witch hunt Commentary by Terry Anker With its Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen penned by freedom fighters at the end of the French revolution in 1789, the “inalienable right” to freedom of speech was expressed: The free communication of ideas and opinions is one of the most precious of the rights of man. Every citizen may, accordingly, speak, write, and print with freedom, but shall be responsible for such abuses of this freedom as shall be defined by law. Most of us have a passing familiarity with our own founder’s attempts to instill a defense against the oppression of the prevailing view in the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Even England asserted a freedom of speech in Parliament in its Bill of Rights of 1689. When in Rwanda a few years ago, I witnessed the traditional communal courts where people of “integrity” gather on gacaca grass to hear the open testimony of all parties to a dispute seeking a community-based (and community-supported) resolution. After the genocide the Rwandan courts were
overwhelmed with the masses to be processed. They employed these traditional methods to help dispense with some of the lesser matters. One of the most common criticisms was the potential for witness intimidation. The community had to value the freedom to express a viewpoint without retribution for the process to function. In recent US history, Joseph McCarthy exploited fear about communism to jail, subvert, take property or make a pariah of any who dared to express their freedom to communicate a view unsupported by the majority. Would the hundreds of artists, business leaders and just plainold folk who were labeled and outcast because of a careless remark, identify more with Clippers owner Donald Sterling or NBA Commissioner Adam Silver? Can other people say things even if we don’t like it? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentincarmel. com.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK “The difference between successful people and very successful people is that very successful people say ‘no’ to almost everything” - Warren Buffett
It’s finally time for my annual Summer Survival Guide. Thank God! I don’t know if it’s because I’ve seen the movie humor “Frozen” so often or if this winter was simply that bad, but I find myself channeling Olaf twenty-four seven – longing for the warmth and relaxation only summer can bring (minus the hugs of course, even the warm ones. Blecht!) Because some of you are worth melting for, I’d like to share my plans. Because we all know what a nightmare it is to have minions milling about with no other purpose than to make up for lost time on Xbox. These children need structure and rules, and need to know that sleeping until 3 p.m. is not acceptable day after sun-filled day, nor is letting their bedrooms morph into a debris field of Oreo crumbs, wet socks and discarded plastic snowmen. So here are a few suggestions. Most have worked reasonably well for us in the past, and are back on the menu this year. Good luck, and remember, if all else fails: conceal, don’t feel. Hold a family meeting at Yogurtz or the like to share your expectations for electronics usage, chores, and outside play time, and invite your kids to express their opinions. You’re not going to deviate from the limits you and your partner have predetermined, but allowing short people to feel as though they have a say over a quart of cake batter fro-yo will go a long way in enforcing said policies. Love is an open door when coupled with faux empowerment and sprinkles! Plan for an Amish day once a week. No television, no computers, no cell phones. Force your children to interact face-to-face with real, live people. Break out the cards, LEGOs, and the Monopoly board, or kick them out of the house for a neighborhood Ghost in the Graveyard extravaganza. Do they even know what a book looks like? How about a bike? Regardless, for the first time in forever they can and will have fun without a power outlet. Be flexible. Playing Julie McCoy to a bunch of tiny Love Boaters can be exhausting, so if the nightly glass of Pinot isn’t dulling the edge, opt for a day off from the Summer Rules. Let them watch Walking Dead for eight hours, eat Waffle Crisp for dinner, or play Nintendo until they’re cross-eyed. Let it go. Let. It. Go. Summer is upon us my friends, and laying a few ground rules is key to enjoying a mentally stable June and July. Here’s to a magical, Olafimagined few months, hopefully without an ice-queen rage blizzard. But I make no promises, especially around the full moon! Peace out.

On becoming a class act Commentary by Dick Wolfsie My throat was sore, I was exhausted and my legs were killing me. I don’t recommend anyone doing what I did this past week, humor certainly not at my age: teaching high school for one day. I returned to New Rochelle, N.Y., where I had taught English at my alma mater from 1969-1978. I had to teach one more day in order to satisfy a new state requirement for earning the pension I had failed to collect almost 35 years ago. I already had a history of a few other failures at that school, although history was not one of them. In those days, in order to graduate you needed 20 credits. I asked my guidance counselor if I had enough and she said, “All you need is five a year, do the math.” That was the problem; I couldn’t do math, which is why I was two credits short. Because I love comedy, I talked to each class of the four classes about the importance of humor. GSOH (good sense of humor) is a common acronym used on dating site profiles. Interestingly, women want men who make them laugh. Men want women who laugh at their jokes. This seemed like a great topic for a class and it turned out to inspire some lively discussion among the 16- and 17-year-olds. So lively, in fact, I decided to bring it up at dinner that evening with my siblings, who still live in the area. Mary Ellen and I stayed at my sister’s house in New York for
a few days. I made this arrangement because I cherish my relationship with Linda and I tried to spend as much time with her as possible … and I wanted to save $1,500 on hotels. My sister cooked dinner for us one night and we were joined by her boyfriend Kyle, my brother Peter, and my niece Ericka, all of whom are single. We went around the room discussing deal breakers—personality traits or habits listed in a personal ad that would immediately eliminate someone as a potential mate. My sister was denied membership several years ago in one singles site because applicants are only allowed to pick five of these disqualifiers. Linda had checked off so many on the list that they considered her “too picky”—which is another trait she can’t stand in men. In our discussion, Mary Ellen said the guy could not enjoy killing animals for sport; my brother would nix a woman without a job. Ericka would say no to someone who hated kids and Kyle wouldn’t tolerate a smoker. When it got to me, I kind of panicked so I simply said that any woman I picked had to get along with Mary Ellen. Everyone laughed, except my wife. I think she read too much into it.

The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra will perform “Daphnis et Chloe” at Clowes Hall at Butler University on June 13 and 14.
ISO and Dance Kaleidoscope combine forces By Jay Harvey • editorial@youarecurrent.com Two teenage boys, unacquainted and each coming late to his respective specialty on different continents, got smitten with music recordings of the second suite from “Daphnis et Chloe” by Maurice Ravel. That’s the setting by which the century-old score the French master wrote for Serge Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes has become best-known. Now, as well-placed Indianapolis area arts professionals, Krzysztof Urbanski and David Hochoy are collaborating on a new production of the full ballet involving both the organizations they direct — the Indianapolis Symphony Hochoy Orchestra and Dance Kaleidoscope — and the Indianapolis Symphonic Choir (prepared by its director, Eric Stark). Just short of an hour in performance, “Daphnis et Chloe” is the longest work by one of the most popular 20th-century composers. All of Ravel’s 75 pieces are in the repertoire, with the mesmerizing orchestra showcase “Bolero,” which is probably the most well-known. The complete “Daphnis et Chloe” takes major resources and skill to put on. The orchestra score is complex and the variety of danced expression that needs to come through is immense, from solemnly religious to orgiastic. In its original form, it’s been a rarity in performance since its Paris premiere in 1912. It’s apparently been done only once before in Indianapolis, with the ISO and the Butler Ballet under the direction of Izler Solomon in 1962. This month’s performances will involve
an orchestra of 92, a dance company of 14 and a choir of 80 to 100. How did this major undertaking come about? “About a year-and-a-half ago, Krzysztof and I were looking for a work to collaborate on with (Dance Kaleidoscope),” said ISO artistic administrator Zack French. “He mentioned ‘Daphnis et Chloe,’ and I said, ‘I think we can do it.’” With no stage director and Urbanski’s schedule calling for him to be out of town frequently, French became the unofficial producer and conduit between the artistic directors, he said. Ravel’s music holds a special place in the ISO staffer’s heart. He said he recalls listening over and over again to “Bolero” as a high-school Urbanski student to soothe the pain of recovery from wisdom-tooth surgery. His interest in “Daphnis et Chloe” in particular became strong enough that he wrote his master’s thesis on the work at the University of Connecticut. The suite that so enchanted Hochoy and Urbanski in cassette and vinyl formats makes up just the third and final scene of the ballet. “Daphnis et Chloe” retells the third-century Greek story of the love of the two title characters, the threats they encounter from rivals and invading pirates, and their rescue and blessing by the god Pan. It ends with a whirlwind celebration, visually represented in this production as a contemporary bacchanal, or wild party. Urbanski has an explicit score to follow, with thousands of details to render in order to follow his practice of honoring the composer’s intentions as fully as he can. Hochoy’s task was dif-
ferent. He knows what previous choreographers have done, but feels responsible for displaying his creative response to “Daphnis et Chloe,” inspired more by what the music says to him than by the work’s scenario. For example: The shepherd Daphnis’s rival for Chloe’s affections, the oxherd Dorcon, is represented as somewhat oafish in the scenario. His solo dance draws laughter from the community that one can hear the orchestra imitate. Hochoy had a different idea: “I didn’t want to make him awkward, but much more assured. I wanted the choice (between the two men) to be difficult for Chloe. In a strange way, she’s torn up choosing between the two boys.” And, for practical and artistic reasons, the roles of Dorcon and the pirate leader are taken by the same dancer. “What better way is there to show the community what we have here than by collaboration?” said French, anticipating growing public interest in the two performances. “Our organizational team is working with Clowes, and putting it all together is an extremely joint effort. Lots of people will come and hear it — not just for what Ravel has to offer but for seeing the culmination of three arts organizations working together.” “Daphnis et Chloe” • a ballet with music by Maurice Ravel and new choreography by David Hochoy • performed by Dance Kaleidoscope, Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, Indianapolis Symphonic Choir and conducted by Krzysztof Urbanski • 8 p.m. June 13 and 14 • Clowes Hall on the campus of Butler University in Indianapolis • Tickets start at $40 • For more information call (800) 982-2787.

Understanding depression in men Commentary by Chintan Amin, MD Clinical depression is a disease that affects both women and men. In fact, it’s estimated that more than six million men in wellness the United States suffer from depression. For both males and females, symptoms of depression include loss of interest in enjoyable activities, fatigue, appetite changes, difficulty sleeping and apathy. When it comes to depression, the difference between men and women is often observed in how males and females express the symptoms. While women may tend to feel sad when they are depressed, cultural norms don’t easily permit men to express these same feelings. As a result, men suffering from depression may instead focus on the physical symptoms, such as feeling tired, rather than the emotional ones. They also may become irritable, less communicative, withdrawn and in some cases, more aggressive. For these reasons, it can be difficult to diagnose depression in men. Even when exhibiting the signs and symptoms, many men may fail to recognize the problem as depression. A primary care doctor can help determine whether symptoms are a sign of depression or some other health concern. Some medications can cause side effects similar to the symptoms of depression, so if you take medication, it’s important to see your doctor to rule that out. A physician can also refer you to a psychiatrist or therapist, if

signs point to depression. The good news is that depression can be treated successfully in more than 80 percent of people. Treatment methods may include antidepressant medications, psychotherapy or a combination of the two. In addition to scheduling an appointment with a primary care doctor, there are some things that men – and women, for that matter – should keep in mind when considering ways to improve mental health and well-being: • Build and maintain a network of trusted family and friends to provide support when needed. • Exercise regularly. Studies show that exercise can relieve stress and help with symptoms of depression. • Look closely at your life to see if and how changes can be made to make life happier and more fulfilling.

Lifting the veil on financial services Commentary by Adam Cmejla Open up a financial- or business-related newspaper, magazine or website and you’re bound to see an article that will offer to finance give some advice or perspective on a variety of financial topics. Indeed, all of my articles have followed this same intention. A topic that is covered much less, though, is how to evaluate a financial professional or their firm and the differences between the many business models. My next series of columns will attempt to do just that, and I sincerely hope readers find it both informative and that they aid people in better understanding our profession. I’ve been told by many people that I’m not like a typical financial advisor they’ve experienced or what they’d expect out of a financial advisor. I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing, but when I hear of some of the previous experiences of both clients that we work with and friends that I have, I tend to lean towards the former. People that know me know that two of my core values are transparency and honesty, which is ironic given the often-time mistaken direct association of financial advisors and Wall Street. Just as there is lack of transparency on Wall Street, though, I feel that there is also a lack of transparency and parody within our industry of providing financial advice and recommendations to the public. I’ve often used the metaphor that our industry and plethora of business models make our pro-
fession “clear as mud.” Whether it’s the laundry list titles that advisors operate under, the designations that you’ll see after advisors’ names, the names of the businesses that they operate under, the vehicles that they use for clients’ assets or the selling methods and tactics that are used to gain new clients, my goal and intention will be to lift the veil of our industry and give you a peek inside. There are some both inside and outside of our profession that will use the defense “buyer beware” when it comes to making purchases, including starting a relationship with an advisor. However, it’s hard for the buyer to beware when the buyer doesn’t even know what to be aware of when interacting with an advisor. I’ve heard the phrase “I’m not sure what to even look for or what questions to ask” when having the discussion of evaluating our profession and learning about a financial advisor or their firm and how they do business. My intention and goal is to at least give you the starting blocks and roadmap to either have that conversation with a potential financial advisor or learn more about the relationship you may already have with a person or their firm. Adam Cmejla is president of Integrated Planning and Wealth Management, a financial services firm in Carmel providing comprehensive retirement planning strategies to individuals near or in retirement. He can be reached at 853-6777 or adam@integratedpwm.com.
DISPATCHES Half of U.S. adults’ computers have been hacked in past 12 months - Hackers have exposed the personal information of 110 million Americans in the last 12 months alone. That massive number, tallied by Ponemon Institute researchers, is made even more mind-boggling by the amount of hacked accounts: up to 432 million. The damage is real. Each record typically includes personal information, such as your name, debit or credit card, email, phone number, birthday, password, security questions and physical address. It’s enough to get hunted down by an abusive ex-spouse. It makes you an easier target for scams. And even if only basic information about you is stolen, that can easily be paired with stolen credit card data, empowering impostors. SOURCE: CNN Money
Over-the-counter Cialis by 2017? - Eli Lilly and Company has plans to make money off of its popular Cialis brand after its patent expires. Cialis has been a money maker, topping $2 billion in sales last year, even surpassing Viagra. But when Cialis goes generic in 2017, Lilly hopes a licensing deal will keep the money coming in. Lilly has partnered with Sanofi to sell the drug over the counter, if the companies can secure regulatory approval. There are concerns that with more access, the drug could be used recreationally, rather than by men with impotence. SOURCE: Wall Street Journal

Question: “Dear Grammar Guy, when is something valuable vs. invaluable? Are they interchangeable like flamGrammar guy mable and inflammable? I’m hoping you can shed some light on the issue.” Answer: Great question, reader. Thanks for asking. I imagine what’s tripping you up here is that prefix “in-” – which sometimes makes things negative (i.e. “inoperable,” “incredulous,” “inadmissible,” etc.) and sometimes doesn’t (i.e. “inflammable,” “infamous,” etc.). How we’ve come to have a prefix with different meanings is that English is a patchwork quilt of other languages. Latin, French, German and Greek, to name a few, all have visible influences on the language. Sometimes, as is the case with “inflammable,” that causes confusion. Latin has a prefix “in-” which means “not,” and a prefix “in-” which means “into” and acts as an intensifier. Thus you get the Latin “inflammare” – to set on fire – evolving into the English “inflammable” – able to be set on fire. We have sort of a similar problem with “invaluable,” which is that it made perfect sense when it was coined in the 16th century, but not as much these days. 500 years or so ago, English speakers understood “valuable” to mean “capable
of valuation,” or capable of having a price set on it. Thus, if something was “invaluable,” it could not have a price set on it. From those origins, we get “valuable” today meaning something important or worth money, and “invaluable” meaning something that is “valuable beyond estimation” – often for sentimental reasons. And so we return to your original question: Are “valuable” and “invaluable” interchangeable? The best answer is probably that, in colloquial speech, few people would stumble over your meaning if you used one or the other. In writing you should stick with using “valuable” to mean something with a quantifiable value (Like, say, a bar of gold) and “invaluable” to mean something that is valuable beyond measure (Maybe a family heirloom or a piece of artwork given to you by a friend). A final note: “Invaluable” doesn’t always mean that something is literally beyond value. In the family heirloom example, you could get it appraised and sell it for some amount of money. Its invaluableness comes from the emotional importance you place in it. Jordan Fischer is a contributing columnist for Current Publishing.

In 1946, Bedouins exploring caves near Jericho found the first of the “Dead Sea Scrolls.” Who wrote them and why they were travel hidden is still disputed, but their effect on understanding first century Jewish beliefs is undeniable. Archaeologists searched near where the Bedouins found the first seven scrolls and eventually discovered more than 950 complete manuscripts and fragments in 11 additional caves, with Cave 4 yielding the largest cache. Some scrolls include at least portions of all the books of the Hebrew Scriptures except Esther, pushing the dates of the oldest known copies of those books back about 1,000 years. Others contain recognized books not in the Hebrew Scriptures, including Jubilees and 1 Enoch. The most interesting scrolls include previously unknown Jewish writings, some describing a mysterious “Teacher of Righteousness.” Scroll 4Q521, evoking Isaiah 61, says the Jewish Messiah “will heal the wounded, and revive the dead and bring good news to the poor.” That prediction is the earliest known writing linking the expected Messiah with the resurrection of the dead, a concept important to early Christians. After finding the Dead Sea Scrolls, archaeolo-
gists excavated the nearby ruins of Qumran, unearthing a narrow room, ceremonial baths, pottery and inkwells. Some scholars are convinced Qumran was home to the Essenes, a strict first century Jewish sect, who wrote or copied the scrolls in their “scriptorium.” Qumran guides recite this idea, speculating that John the Baptist may have been an Essene. Others argue, with equal conviction, that Qumran was a villa, a fortress or perhaps a pottery factory having no connection with the scrolls, which they claim were hidden by people fleeing Jerusalem before its fall in 70 A.D. Others believe the scrolls were written at Qumran, but not by Essenes. No matter who wrote the Dead Sea Scrolls, their discovery has added greatly to understanding the diversity of Jewish thinking about the Messiah at the time of Jesus. Their discovery has also spurred a new interest in the Essenes, known from the writings of first century historian Josephus but largely ignored because of the Biblical emphasis on the Sadducees and Pharisees.

This bright micro-space reminds me of oldworld courtyards that you may have explored in southern historic downtowns indoors like New Orleans and Savannah. Tight spaces have such an incredible opportunity to draw people in and provide a sense of romance or intrigue. Previous to the early spring 2013 update, this landscape had grown tired and suffered from last winter’s heavy snow. The arborvitae failed miserably and we were thrilled to replace them with an authentic boxwood hedge flanked by stately blue holly. Fortunately, the multiple stem riverbirch remains healthy and produces fantastic shade in blazing August afternoons. The rich evergreen pachysandra groundcover (yes, this delicate beauty is evergreen) creates a lush green carpet under the birch and is a striking contrast to the fragrant, blue flowering catmint perennial. Notice the Indiana-snapped limestone bed edge snuggled in the foreground of the pachysandra. It behaves as a small seat wall and is a great resting place for candles, plates and drinks when entertaining. It’s a clever way to ease elevation changes and is a trusted conversation stimulant about using local materials and being environmentally friendly. Without apologizing, the low slung, shocking green seating steals the show. Frankly, it’s not
