OUR VIEWS
Our position is that shortcomings in a politician’s personal life are appropriate for public disclosure. We are aware of a candidate’s position on a few broad issues that get a lot of debate, but there will be thousands of other votes that one will use their discretion based in part on an individual value system. How they conduct their private life helps to reveal whether they are the right person to represent our interests. With respect to infidelity, if a politician is willing to betray the trust of his wife, wouldn’t he be willing to betray the trust of his nameless/faceless constituents? If he would hurt his family in order to satisfy his personal desires, would he consider what is right for the voters if that conflicted with any of his personal goals? Representative Weiner is the latest politico to be exposed as a philanderer, and if he had immediately admitted to the facts (or argued that they were irrelevant), then it would have been up to the voters in NYC to decide if they wanted to re-elect him. But he publicly lied when confronted with the allegations, and for that reason above all others, he was right to be forced from office.
Be safe
It is our position that with the impending July 4 festivities, we must remember the paramount importance of safety. Independence Day is a holiday in which both the consumption of adult beverages and lighting of fireworks have become staples of many people’s celebration. Yet both of these (especially put together) should be taken very seriously. We are in no way discouraging anyone from partaking in safe festivities. But, isn’t special precaution in order to ensure everyone’s safety? Simple steps include not picking up a dud firework, managing spent sparklers and keeping an abundant supply of water handy, help ensure a fun but safe night. Read the manufacturer’s instructions. Follow local ordinances and fire codes. Respect the privacy of neighboring property. Drink responsibly. Using good judgment seems simple enough. It is important to become familiar with state laws. Both rules and safety tips can be found at the National Council on Firework Safety’s website www.fireworksafety.com. Whether lighting sparklers or mortars, we want everyone to have a relaxing and safe recognition of our country’s founding.

Felony under the laws of Indiana or the United States, or of any other crime that involves moral turpitude under that law.

On recommendation of the commission on judicial qualifications the Supreme Court may (1) retire such justice or judge for disability that seriously interferes with the performance of his duties and is or is likely to become permanent, and (2) censure or remove such justice or judge, for action occurring not more than six years prior to the commencement of his current term, when such action constitutes willful misconduct in office, willful and persistent failure to perform his duties, habitual intemperance, or conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice that brings the judicial office into disrepute.

FROM THE BACKSHOP Rock it, Westfield (the 4th, that is)! If it’s not on your calendar yet, it should be. Westfield Rocks the Fourth is back – and bigger – at Asa Bales Park at 4 p.m. on Sunday. The Downtown Westfield Neighborhood Association is to be commended for all the heavy lifting it has done to ensure an action-packed afternoon-into-night event full of music, kids’ area, car show and motorcycle ride. The capper? How about a fireworks show being billed as the largest in the Indy area? We’ve said it before: “Little” Westfield isn’t so little any longer, is it? When you see a volunteer or a DWNA member, please be sure to offer thanks for a job well done. ••• A load of our counterparts at The Indianapolis Star were shown the door last week in a significant layoff action, yet another dark day for the daily newspaper industry. Based on what we hear from some of those let go, this signifies a retrenching of the news operation and a redirection to targeting boomers in the area below 38th Street for the most part. Suburban coverage has been gutted. (It’s supposed to resurface in the fall, but from what we hear it will be dramatically different.) You can count on us to be there for you, as al-
Brian Kelly & Steve Greenberg ways has been the case since we launched, and we urge you to pummel managing editor Ellen Kizik’s inbox (ellen@youarecurrent.com) early and often. Even if you might believe your news release or story idea isn’t earth-shattering, Ellen still wants to see it, trust us. Anything she can do to make you and your fellow readers healthier, wealthier and wiser … well, that’s her mission. Send it all. Again: early and often.

COMMENTARY By Ellen Kizik “We sometimes encounter people, even perfect strangers, who begin to interest us at first sight somehow, suddenly, all at once before a word has been spoken.” - Fydor Dostoevsky I definitely consider myself a people person. Now, many people claim to exhibit this attribute, but they do not live up to it. I do. I love getting out there to meet new and interesting people. I have never been shy and I am grateful for opportunities to interact with many different personality types. I’m most fascinated by the diversity in all of us. Although there may be stereotypes, all human beings are unique. I live by that motto and I apply it to every encounter. Meeting introductions with shyness isn’t an option for me. I was born and raised in Odessa, Ukraine. I moved to the states when I was five-years-old. My first five years in the U.S. were spent in Salt Lake City, Utah. The move helped open my eyes to new religions and gave me the chance to explore West Coast culture. Although the bulk of my life has been enjoyed on the north east side of Indianapolis, I don’t miss an opportunity to venture out of the state and learn about my fellow Americans and their different cultures. Travel has been an integral part of my life. AlJobbeen #: 26066 though most of my travels have in Western Final Size: 5.1" x 5.4" Folded Size: N/A
Europe or Israel, I have enjoyed learning from my all of my neighbors. I am fascinated by what people in other cultures think and how they perceive the world. Instead of seeing everything in two dimensions, I always strive for the threedimensional version. A more dynamic picture spices up my life, one meeting at a time. On Fourth of July weekend, I will be striking up conversations left and right to meet people and I’ll listen to what they have to say. Impromptu “meet and greets” aren’t enough; there must be a genuine effort to stop and smell the roses. “When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it’s your world for the moment. I want to give that world to someone else. Most people in the city rush around so, they have no time to look at a flower. I want them to see it whether they want to or not.” - Georgia O’Keeffe Don’t be deceived just because something, or in this case, someone doesn’t necessary fit your status quo. Be open-minded and the possibilities are endless.

DISPATCHES » APC meeting – The Advisory Plan Commission will hold its next meeting July 5 at 7 p.m. at the assembly room in City Hall, 130 Penn Street. For more information, visit www.westfield.in.gov. » Traffic change – The Indiana Department of Transportation rescheduled its shift eastbound and westbound traffic on State Road 32/38 to temporary lanes recently constructed north of the roadway between the S.R. 32/38 split and Union Chapel Road. The shift was moved to last Friday. During the S.R. 32/38 closure—expected to continue until Labor Day—the state’s contractor, will remove and replace the existing roadbed. In addition, south halves of roundabouts at Promise Road and Union Chapel Road will be constructed. All work is under the city of Noblesville’s supervision—with cooperation from INDOT. The speed limit through the construction zone has been reduced from 55 mph to 35 mph, and police patrols are enforcing the lower limit.
COMMENTARY By Danielle Wilson Do you ever have a day when every little thing bothers you? I had one just yesterday that culminated in a small breakdown in which I went to my room and cried myself to sleep. As expected, I feel 100 percent better this morning and thought I’d share with you the 10 things that irritate me the most. 1. Idiot Drivers: Cars have turn signals for a reason, people. They’re to “signal” you are about to “turn.” It does me no good after you’ve already slowed from 60 to three and I’m moments from rear-ending you! 2. Textbook Rental Fees: What the hell is going on with public schools? We have one of the best programs in the country, yet we can’t afford to provide textbooks for our students? My “rental” fee for four kids in school this August will come close to $600! 3. People Who Don’t RSVP: I understand few people around here speak French, but you can’t tell me they don’t know that RSVP stands for “let the host know if you’re coming, for cripe’s sake!” It’s rude, it’s inconsiderate, and it’s extremely stressful to someone planning a party when people fail to respond. So, just do it.

For people to not have and/or utilize email is a travesty to modern times. I have one friend that flat-out refuses to e-mail, and it drives me nuts. I’m expected to actually call her … on a telephone … during normal waking hours. The audacity! 9. PMS: Maybe because I’m approaching forty or perhaps because I’m battling kids and work and a husband, but PMS seems worse than ever. My moods are equal to a bi-polar crack addict and I can’t seem to find an ounce of patience in my normally quite full stash. It only lasts for a couple of days, but God help anyone who crosses me during that time. 10. Buying School Supplies: If two fifth-graders each need 20 sharpened #2 pencils and a second-grader needs 50, but Office Max only sells packages of 36 or 72, how long before a Soccer Mom offs herself with four dry erase markers, six sets of watercolor paints, and three pairs of safety scissors? Let me know what bugs you! Peace out! Danielle Wilson is a Carmel resident and contributing columnist. You may e-mail her at danielle@ currentincarmel.com.

4. Automatic Hand-Dryers: They take forever, they’re loud, and in the end I always have to dry my hands on my jeans anyway. What’s the point? Put back the paper towels or just let people know they’re on their own. Everyone’s happy, no one gets hurt. 5. Pepsi-Only Restaurants: A perfect lunch at Panera was ruined the other day when I realized they did not offer my beloved Diet Coke. Pepsi-only Restaurants (and a certain north side movie theater- you know who you are) should be condemned. Period. 6. Chatty Cathy’s: It’s safe to say with kids galore that I have a fairly busy schedule during the day. If I do manage to unearth the phone from the pillow fort in the basement, I’ll have maybe four seconds to talk, so you’d better be brief. If you want to chat for the sake of chatting, call someone else. I ain’t got the time, sista! 7. Being Late: I hate being late to anything, from barbecues to soccer practice, and I really hate it when people are late to events I’m hosting. If a party starts at 7:00 p.m., then that’s when it starts. If I’d wanted you here at 7:23, then I’d have put that on the freakin’ invitation, right next to the RSVP information! 8. People without E-mail: It’s now 2011!

Grand Park Sports Complex
A
Editor, In regards to the Current June 21 story on Grand Park Sports Complex. I want to make it very clear as a resident of Westfield I adamantly oppose Grand Park Sports Complex. For the last year all we have seen from Mr. Cook is pictures of Grand Park. I believe the Current owes it to your readers to start pressuring Mr. Cook for exact figures. When Mr. Estridge had a falling out with Mr. Cook over the amount of land, Mr Cook moved the project north. Estridge wished to use only 150 acres. Mr. Cook wanted 300 and now I read we are up to 350 plus acres. It appears most of the property will be purchased from Beau Wilfong and Steve Henke. I have a real problem with Mr. Cook stating that tax dollars will not be used. IBJ on September 3, 2010 quoted Mr Cook as saying, “creating the 300-acre sports complex could help the city spread the tax burden on the town’s 20,000 residents to something other than residential development”. I am also aware that some type of figures do exist, the Current must get their hands on these
figures. Another IBJ report dated April 27, 2009 reported the following. “He’s been making the pitch to anyone who will listen around Westfield and at the Statehouse, where he’s lobbying for a tax-incrementfinancing district to help the city pay for the project. He carries the feasibility study, maps and details of his vision in a yellow JanSport backpack.” The Current must get the details in that yellow JanSports backpack. While the Current investgators are asking Mr. Cook for this study, you also need to find out what corporate sponsors have stepped up to the plate and threw down some cash. Mr Cook also states on his campaign youtube video that “medical facilities are fighting over the naming rights.” One problem is that Westfield has no major medical facility. Your readers would be interested in knowing what facilities are fighting over the naming rights. I thought the park already has a name. Come on Current, your reporters are just as good as IBJ. Let’s get it done. Mike Waite Westfield

Locally filmed story debuting at Hamilton Town Center By Eric Seaman Current in Westfield I personally wasn’t raised in the original Star Wars trilogy, being I’m 20. My childhood didn’t consist of Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford, and the occasional Storm Trooper shouting, “Blast ’em!” For a local film production team, they were able to experience a secondary childhood with the filming of “Leah Not Leia.” Known for their indie and feature films, Karmic Courage Productions has set out to “create inspirational films which showcase realistic and positive female role models that are commercially exploitable to a wide range of audiences.” This film was shot in several locations in nearby Noblesville, Westfield, Indianapolis, and Broad Ripple by Karmic Courage Productions of Noblesville. Director Tom Johnson grew up in Carmel as a young boy with his colleagues, director Nate Savidge and writer Kate Chaplin, being from Noblesville. Many identifiable locations in Hamilton and Marion County are featured in the film. Westfield’s own Jan’s Village Pizza, Asa Bales Park, and Noblesville’s famed Great Escape Theatre are shown in the film along with Red Key Tavern of Broad Ripple and many private residences in the area. The entire cast and crew is from Indiana with most of which from Indianapolis and suburban

‘Leah not Leia’ was filmed in Noblesville, Westfield and Indianapolis. Indianapolis. “Leah not Leia” is a short, based on true events, story about an infant girl, Leah, born in the Star Wars boom of 1977 with an almost eerily similar name to the famous character portrayed by Carrie Fisher, Princess Leia. Interestingly enough, Chaplin commented on the origins of the film by saying, “My birth name is Leah Lastovich and yes, I was born in 1977… I’ve been the butt of so many jokes because of my name. I, No. 1, changed it, and No. 2, wrote a film about it.” The film will be making its much-anticipated premiere at IMAX Hamilton 16, Friday July 1 at midnight. Following the film will be a meet and greet with the cast and crew along with a Q & A. For tickets, visit www.gqti.com.

City’s first art gallery closes Mural to be unveiled downtown By Lindsay Eckert Current in Westfield Artists will be painting part of Westfield into a historical timeline this month. The city of Westfield and its artists are creating a three-dimensional mural. The creative artistry will illustrate Westfield’s past, present and future in the heart of the city’s downtown. It will cover the length of a building and it will be installed this month. The mural depicting the city’s historical events and the heart of the town’s present will be revealed at Westfield’s Fourth of July Festival, Westfield Rocks the Fourth. The mural will creatively highlight the home to downtown’s Union Street Flowers and Gifts. The owners of the gift shop, Dave and Becky Weiss, have had an active presence in Westfield for years. Their building is nestled on the corner of Union and Main Street. Two artists are collaborating to paint a historical glimpse of Westfield. The city of Westfield chose Blice Edwards, Inc. to develop and install the mural. Westfield’s leaders and its community hope this creative venture will embark on a new chapter for Westfield. “We want art to be a large part of our identity here in Westfield,” said Mayor Andy Cook. “It is exciting to see a prominent downtown business take such a large role is creating that identity. I hope to see other businesses and organizations follow in their footsteps of making art a priority,” Blice Edwards is a partnership of artists, Christopher Blice and Jon Edwards. The pair has a studio in Indianapolis, but their experience spans nationwide. The painters have artistically enhanced cities on every coast. Westfield will be among cities like San Francisco, Chicago, Orlando and Nashville to feature their work.
Blice and Edwards have stroked brushes on nearly 500 projects in central Indiana. The unveiling will be held at 5 p.m. during Westfield Rocks the Fourth on July 3. The mural artists will be on hand answering questions from the public from 5 to 6 p.m.
By Lindsay Eckert Current in Westfield A home of culture to art and history closed its doors in downtown Westfield. Gallery One36 housed an eclectic blend of Midwestern artists’ homemade jewelry, paintings and art; a creative collaborating spot for aspiring artists and those perfecting their crafts while taking classes. The 90-year-old building once stood as a home, but was renovated in 2005 to become Westfield’s first and only art gallery. Katherine Kemp moved her passion for cre-
ativity to Westfield from Michigan. She grew up in a small-town in Michigan and was captivated by the world of color and design of art. She pursued her love of art by studying at Kendall School of Design. After studying and developing her craft, she shared her passion with volunteerism. Kemp volunteered in schools and hospitals before investing in the Gallery One36 Art Gallery. The gallery opened in 2006 and represented the contemporary hearts of Indiana artists. Today, a chapter in Westfield’s artistic history is closed but that doesn’t mean Kemp is closing the book to her artistic career. Kemp is continuing her passion to create and to teach. She is still offering art classes and will be selling her paintings and jewelry online. “I am offering classes in precious metal clay,” Kemp said of her new class agenda. “There will be 3-hour workshops and classes for all artists, ranging from beginners to advanced artists.” Wine enthusiasts with a niche for painting can take part in Kemp’s “My Style Painting,” a cocktail and canvas event. Artists can sip their favorite vino while painting their next masterpiece. Today, Kemp is opening a dynamic chapter in her art career. “The gallery doors have closed, but now I am able to concentrate solely on creating my threestudio home.” You can shop for Kemp’s creations at galleryone36.com.

DISPATCHES » State turnaround – Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction Dr. Tony Bennett announced today the addition of Jim Larson as Director of School Turnaround and Improvement. Larson is a former seventh grade Humanities teacher at the Charles A. Tindley Accelerated School in Indianapolis where he was selected in 2009-2010 as their Teacher of the Year. He replaces Lee Ann Kwiatkowski, who will become the Early Childhood/Title I Director at the Metropolitan School District of Warren Township. In his new role, Larson will work closely with the State Board of Education (SBOE) and Indiana’s 18 schools at risk for state intervention to implement changes aimed at improving student performance and educator quality. » No Child Left Behind – U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan has said he will look to give states relief from key provisions of the federal school accountability law in exchange for “commitments to key reforms.” Among other suggestions, Duncan said he’d like to give states the ability to focus on student gains rather than absolute test scores, and more flexibility in how Title I money for disadvantaged students is spent.
The need for good grammar on Facebook GRAMMAR LESSON By Brandie Bohney By now, if you’re part of the Facebook-using world, I’m sure you’ve heard that the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) will now be using Facebook entries and photographs as part of its background check for employment. I’m not here to condone or condemn the FTC for this decision. I’m sure employers have been checking Facebook for unsavory stuff on potential and current employees for quite some time. And besides, this is a grammar column, not a commentary on social networking or best hiring practices. What I will say in light of this not-necessarily-new trend is this: Don’t be a moron on Facebook. You should be reading what you’re writing. In addition to content, check for basic spelling and punctuation. Before the general populace dives down my throat with a diatribe about the informality of social media sites, let me add this: understandable typos here and there are not a big deal. I’m not suggesting that you send every status update and response to a professional editor before you post them. I’m merely suggesting a quick read-through to be sure that what you’re saying is what you mean to say, and that it’s relatively free of errors. Avoid abbreviations that may make you seem uneducated or lazy. For example, this is an actual response to a friend’s status update yester-
day: “Ur a strong person you can do it.. N just no that ur dads watchin over u...” Beyond considering my horror at reading something like that, imagine if a potential employer would read that during a Facebook check prior to hiring. There are certainly some professions where butchered grammar could be overlooked, but many employers I know would immediately dismiss considering someone for writing like that. Perhaps I shouldn’t have to say this, but always keep in mind that what you put on the internet should be something you are comfortable with staying on the internet forever. The FTC is going to allow its background-checking company to search Facebook profiles as far back as seven years. For those of you in high school and college, this means that what you put on Facebook today could, potentially, be viewed by a prospective employer after you graduate from college, perhaps even after you’ve been in the workforce for several years. Don’t let a moment of stupidity on the internet ruin your chances at a dream job. Oh, and tighten your Facebook privacy settings. Brandie Bohney is a grammar enthusiast and former English teacher. If you have a grammarrelated question, please email her at bbthegrammarguru@gmail.com.

gently until the mixture adheres to the meat. 2. Build a charcoal fire for indirect cooking by situating the coals on only one side of the grill, leaving the other side void. If you are using gas, turn half the burners on low and the other leave off. Add a small aluminum pan, under the cooking grate, to the void/off side of the grill and fill it halfway with water. 3. Combine all of the baste ingredients in a medium saucepan and mix well. Place over medium-low heat and simmer until the butter melts. Keep on low heat until ready to use. 4. When the grill reaches 250˚F, place pork butt on the void side of the grill over the water pan, close the lid, and cook over indirect heat for four and 1/2 hours (an internal temp. of about 165 degrees) basting every 45 minutes. Pull the pork from the bone while hot. To the pulled pork, add just a touch of the rub as seasoning, and then sauce the pulled pork while it’s still warm. Place pulled pork on slider buns and top with a mound of coleslaw!

DISPATCHES » Avoid canned tomatoes? – An endocrinologist won’t go near canned tomatoes -- the cans are lined with a resin containing BPA, and tomatoes are especially dangerous because their acid breaks the BPA down in dangerous amounts. Microwave popcorn also may be bad. Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) lines microwave popcorn bags, and when they are heated the compound, which has been linked to infertility, leaches onto the food. -www.mercola.com » Dishwasher fungus – Scientists have found a possibly harmful fungus that grows in dishwashers, surviving high temperatures, acids and detergents. A black yeast called Exophiala dermatitidis was found with a cousin fungus, E. phaeomuriformis, in samples taken from dishwashers in 189 homes in 101 cities in six continents. Fifty-six percent of the dishwashers contained the fungi on the rubber seal on the appliance door. Both species “are known to be able to cause systemic disease in humans,” says the study. -www.foxnews.com
» Aloe for canker sores – Try using aloe vera on any canker sores. Aloe vera contains vitamins as well as amino acids that help repair damaged tissues. Several compounds found in aloe vera work together to decrease or prevent inflammation and control pain. A research review found that canker sore sufferers who applied aloe vera gel healed about 50 percent faster than those who didn’t. -www.prevention.com » Gut controls weight loss – Researchers are realizing that weight loss after surgery is fundamentally different from weight loss achieved by dieting. A key player in this difference is the hormone, ghrelin, which stimulates appetite. When we diet, our ghrelin levels rise, making us hungry. We may lose weight, but our ghrelin levels stay high. Ghrelin levels come down only if we regain the weight. “People trying to lose weight are being fought tooth and nail by the body to keep that weight on,” said Dr. Miguel Burch of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. But after gastric bypass surgery, ghrelin levels go down significantly, Burch said. -www.myhealthnewsdaily.com
Ladies: Exercise can help us deal with emotions FITNESS By Laura Marenco Did someone say emotions? Women deal with them, very intense ones mind you. There are many reasons for them; not only circumstantial ones, but physiological ones too. Yes, we are very complex beings. We have to deal with the monthly ups and downs of hormones, we are the ones who carry a baby in our womb and we are the ones who usually prepare dinner for the family. Does that sound familiar? So what should we do to help us deal with “emotions” and stress? Let’s start by taking some time away from our busy schedule to exercise and spend some quality “me” time. Women who exercise enjoy more than just the physical benefits of being active. While those alone are enough of a reason to exercise, the emotional benefits of exercise are just as important. Many women deal with self-esteem issues and exercise can be a real boost. Women who engage in a regular exercise program are healthier and more physically fit, which provokes a positive feeling of accomplishment. They feel healthier, attractive and confident. Even those who haven’t met their fitness goals feel good about moving forward through

exercise. Regular work outs reduce anxiety and give exercisers a better outlook on life. Exercising revs up the production of chemicals in your body that regulate moods. Tryptophan and Serotonin are mood-controlling chemicals released in the brain. Serotonin can even reverse mild and moderate depression. Low levels of these chemicals can lead to clinical depression, and a regular exercise program can guard against depression in healthy women. Women who exercise may have less menstrual symptoms and fewer mood swings than sedentary women. Fewer physical symptoms contribute to a better emotional state as well. Aim for 30 minutes of exercise on most days of the week to reduce emotional symptoms of PMS. So at the end of the day, let’s set everything aside and get moving! Remember- always check with your health care practitioner before starting a new exercise program.

Eclectic ways to get fit By Sarah Cunningham Current in Westfield If you’re a fitness fan looking to try something new, The Yoga Center in Clay Terrace may be the challenge you’re looking for. All yoga classes at The Yoga Center are Bikram or hot yoga. Poses in Bikram Yoga are the same as in traditional yoga; however, the room is heated to around 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Heather Thomas, owner of The Yoga Center, explained why adding heat to yoga provides more physical benefits. “It also adds another layer of intensity to the practice,” Thomas said. “90 percent of the time, people won’t come back to yoga because it’s too easy and too boring. The heat softens you up and makes the workout more intense.” Scott Wharton, a frequent customer at The Yoga Center’s Clay Terrace location, said he’s already seeing the positive impact in the heated exercise. “It’s a great calorie burner, and it helps me feel stronger than I’ve ever felt before.” Bikram Yoga is also popular among athletes. Donald Brown of the Indianapolis Colts and former NBA player Austin Croser are regular customers at The Yoga Center. Last week, The Yoga Center worked with runners training for the Carmel Marathon. Bikram Yoga appeals to athletes because it brings an extra level of intensity to their yoga routines.

DISPATCHES » Study: Meritocracies are shams – A new study from Emilio J. Castilla, of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Stephen Benard of Indiana University, suggests that the whole idea of meritocracy might not work as well as we’d like to think. The study found that managers are more likely to discriminate in a meritocracy. If managers believed the employees worked in a meritocracy, they gave men bigger bonuses than the women, even though the two (fictional) employees had identical experience and qualifications. If managers knew nothing about how employees were being judged or paid, they tended to give men and women the same amount of money as a bonus. -www.bnet.com » More temps being hired – Many companies are still intent on doing more with less. Of the 28,000 jobs added to the U.S. economy in September, the majority of the gain was temporary help. Though they are considered a leading indicator of future hiring, temp workers are like a faucet companies can turn on and off to control fixed costs. Seeing them rise can just as easily be interpreted as a sign of unease rather than hope. -www.inc.com

» Invest or pay debt? – Put your money into stocks and bonds and you’re likely to get a higher return over the long run than you would paying off your home loan, given today’s low rates. If you itemize, you can calculate your effective return by multiplying your mortgage rate and your tax rate, then subtracting the answer from your mortgage rate (do this at bankrate.com). So for someone in the 28 percent tax bracket with a 5 percent mortgage, the effective rate of return on paying off the mortgage is 3.6 percent. By comparison, a 50/50 stock/bond portfolio has historically earned 8.2 percent long term. -Money

Dam It! COMMENTARY By David Cain I admire the beaver. I consider it one of the most strategic builders in the animal world. They go about their day diligently executing their plan to fight the winter weather. They build dams to create a pool of water deep enough that it won’t freeze when cold weather strikes. They fill dams with pieces of trees they’ll eat later. One of the most remarkable things about beavers is they systematically change the flow of water without stopping it. The current basement flooding season reminds me how challenging it is to control water. Water does what it wants. Water goes where it wants. Trying to redirect water takes patience and learning. Moving water against its will requires studying and slow steps. To move the flow of water, use a small stick to create a new path for the water. Let the water
follow its new route in a tiny trickle. Once the water changes its direction momentum will be on your side. Deepen the water’s channel and block the other path, allowing the flow to grow. I’m reminded of moving water in my life as a child growing up in the country. The childhood memories of moving streams still dribble through my mind. My childhood lessons taught me how to change water’s path. Today, I live in the city and the people in my life are like the water I learned about as a child. Growing up I’ve discovered all lives have storms that disrupt the flow and throw it into chaos. However, if you’re patient you can move water, you just have to dam it.

Master bath remodel: Custom project with natural stone tile REMODELING By Larry Greene After 21 years: This home is in the Connerwood subdivision in Zionsville. The current homeowners moved into the home over 21 years ago and were ready for a master bath remodel. Changing door access: One of the biggest changes was the layout of the new bathroom and the elimination of a door from the bathroom to the hallway. The homeowner said, “I like the fact that the bathroom doesn’t open from the hallway anymore. Now, we have a direct entrance to get to the bathroom from our bedroom. Before, we literally had to go out into the hallway to get into the bathroom. Everyone had access to this bathroom before.” Vanity area: The homeowner loves the expanded new vanity area and commented, “It’s also nice to have two sinks.” The new semicustom maple cabinets include a spice stain with black glaze finish and a center tower for added storage. The area also includes two Kichler framed vanity mirrors with new Delta oil rubbed bronze faucets and Verde Peacock granite countertops. Kichler sconce light fixtures were installed at each mirror. Shower and tub details: The new expanded shower includes a niche installed on the water wall and a threshold capped with black traver-
Before tine. The shower enclosure includes 3/8-inch clear frameless glass with oil rubbed bronze hardware. The air-jetted tub includes a custom built wood front face panel to match the vanity cabinet finish. According to the homeowner, “We love the shower both looks-wise and sizewise. My husband is 6’ 6” and this shower is so much bigger than before.” Tile details: The homeowner commented, “The shower is substantially bigger and we really like the tile we picked for the walls and floor.” The floor features 16”x16” Mongolian slate tile in a straight pattern. The shower floor features
matching 1x1 Mongolian slate with sand colored grout. The shower walls include 8”x12” Mongolian slate in a staggered pattern with a decorative horizontal banding with a black travertine moldings. The tub deck also includes 16x16 Mongolian slate with a black travertine molding. Larry Greene is the president of Case Design/Remodeling, a fullservice design/build firm serving Hamilton County.

DISPATCH » Bark for Life – The American Cancer Society’s Bark for Life is a Relay for Life fundraising event that honors the caregiving qualities of canine companions and provides an opportunity to honor cancer survivors and remember those who have lost their fight with the disease. The event will take place June 25 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Dr. James A Dillon Park, 6001 Edenshall Lane, Noblesville. Registration begins at 8 a.m. and the event is followed by a dog walk and other entertainment activities. » Prevent dental disease in pets – According to a Banfield Pet Hospital survey, dental disease is the most common medical problem for both dogs and cats. An astonishing 78 percent of dogs and 68 percent of cats over the age of three have some form of dental disease. This represents a 12 percent increase for dogs from 2006 to 2010, and periodontal (gum) disease is a particular problem for small breed dogs, including the Maltese, Pomeranian, Shetland Sheepdog, Toy Poodle and Yorkshire Terrier. You can help your pet with oral hygiene by feeding a species-appropriate diet, preferably raw. The right food builds a healthy foundation for all your pet’s tissues and organs, including those in the mouth. Also, when your pet gnaws on raw meat, it acts as both toothbrush and floss. And you should brush your pet’s teeth several times a week. -www.mercola.com
headline PETS By John Mikesell The Association for Pet Obesity Prevention reports “a greater percentage of obese pets then ever before.” Humans aren’t the only ones whose waistlines keep expanding. Approximately 53 percent of cats and 55 percent of dogs are overweight or obese, according to the fourth annual National Pet obesity Awareness Day Study conducted by the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention. “This year’s data suggests that our pets are getting fatter, we’re seeing a greater percentage of obese pets than ever before,” said association founder Dr. Ernie Wood. Since the group began conducting nationwide veterinary surveys in 2007, it’s seen an increase in the percentage of pets classified as obese or at least 30 percent above normal body weight. Cat obesity jumped from 19 percent to 22 percent in 2010. For dogs, obesity rates doubled from 10 percent in 2007 to 20 percent in 2010. “One of the reasons we think the obesity rate for dogs has dramatically increased is due to a better understanding of what an obese dog looks like,” said Ward.” Veterinarians also realize how crictical it is to tell a pet owner when their dog is in danger due to its weight.” To get pets to a healthy weight, pet insurer Pet Plan (Philadelphia) suggests owners follow the following tips. START SLOW. If the dog has gained weight over the winter, exercise in moderation at the beginning of spring to prevent serious injury. Be careful when using diet foods for your dog or cat. Not all of them provide good nutrition. Most of the time, all you may need to do is cut back on the current food you are using.
Pets of the week
Also, not all dog treats are created equal. Some have much higher concentrations of fat and sugar than your dog food. Be sure to check with your local pet professional. As an addendum to this article, a few weeks ago I talked about the dangers of riding in cars with dogs. I mentioned the dangers but never gave any solutions. My dog, Karma, is with me every day in the car. If the right precautions are taken, there is no reason your dog cannot safely ride with you. There are many products on the market today to keep your pet safe, but still enjoy being in the car with you. Most of them are simple and easy to use. Remember it wasn’t that long ago that people had not seat belts and kids roamed the back of the car completely unfettered, at least when you are as old as I am you remember that. I guess I was just lucky. John Mikesell, owner of Izzy’s Place, A dog Bakery in Carmel, can be reached at john.mikesell@att.net.
