OUR VIEWS

It is our position that Hamilton County Parks and Jesse and Beulah Cox can take great pride in the work now underway at our own Coxhall Park & Gardens. The property donated by the now-deceased couple (and its accompanying endowment) includes 125 acres (which have already been improved by the addition of gardens and a pair of spectacular carillons) and three houses. The most prominent of the edifices, which was inspired by the important colonial American building the Virginia Governor’s Mansion, is presently being upgraded to be used as a museum and event venue. With the addition of enhanced HVAC, fire suppression and appropriate contemporary accessibility, the structure will assume its rightful place as a centerpiece of our County’s park system. And more importantly, it will be available for ongoing use to our community. We cannot imagine a better realization of a philanthropic vision than the one being undertaken by Hamilton County Parks and Recreation Director Al Patterson and his crew. They are to be heartily congratulated. And, we look forward to the expected opening in the late autumn of this year. When visiting the park this summer, peek around the construction barriers and imagine the future – and our good fortune.

Missed trial

It is our position that, while we may not be happy with the outcome of the Casey Anthony trial, she stood trial before a group of our peers who decided the verdict. The American justice system, while not always perfect, is a much fairer and rational system then many other countries around the world. It’s easy for us to tag Anthony with the guilty tag, but fact of the matter is that we had non-stop media coverage giving us others opinions, while those on the jury only had what was discussed during the trial. It was the prosecutor’s job to prove that Anthony had, without doubt killed her daughter, and was unable to do so in the mind of the jury. We can complain about the final verdict in this case, but we should be thankful that we didn’t take the easy way out and convict her without hearing her side of the story like other countries might. All in all, we believe that the justice system worked as it was supposed to. If Casey Anthony did in fact kill her daughter, you can take solace in the fact that her life will not be much better outside prison than inside.

FROM THE BACKSHOP Your tax dollars hard at work … or not We’re taking a week off from our usual sunny commendations to re-enter the realm of protecting our fellow taxpayers from government waste. Buckle up, because here we go: • Shame on our state Senate for earlier this year deciding to not eliminate the inheritance tax. Indiana needs to get on the bandwagon of states repealing such consequences. • The liberals in Congress are pushing for “revenue enhancements” in negotiating the raising of the debt ceiling. Does anyone seriously believe sending more money to Washington is going to help settle the debt epidemic? • A flood of unemployment insurance claims has overwhelmed the system, leading to record abuses and an overpayment rate of 11.6 percent, Labor Department figures reveal. State and federal officials are taking steps to stop fraud and waste, such as using as a new computer system that identifies workers who still receive benefits even though they’ve gotten a job. Interesting. And by turning over our health care to our “inventive” government, we’ll all save money. Right? Wrong. • Republican Mitt Romney has adapted former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher’s “Labour Isn’t Working” slogan. That, alone, denigrates her accomplish-

Brian Kelly & Steve Greenberg ments. He can’t possibly match her leadership skills. We suppose it was only a matter of time before the spineless GOP would try to hook its broken-down wagon to the Thatcher Shelby GT. It’s really laughable Romney would suggest a comparison. • From the world of “Monuments to Me,” (a la Robert Byrd of West Virginia), Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), who has been fighting against pork barrel spending in Congress, has been asked to sponsor a bill stating that no currently serving legislator or other government employee may have his or her name attached to any project paid for by taxpayer dollars. It was marvelously suggested that if they do, then they must erect a sign that simply says: “This was made possible by the taxpayers.”

No qualms of living old for my age COMMENTARY By Danielle Wilson My in-laws frequently tease me about many things, one being my preference for early dinner and bed times. “Danielle, it’s 4 p.m.,” they’ll snicker. “Shouldn’t you be in the cafeteria eating strained peas?” Ha ha. I get it. They think I’m an elderly person. But, I kind of like the geriatric lifestyle. Here’s why. Early bedtimes: All research supports the old adage that “Nothing good happens after midnight.” Plus, if you have DVR, why would anyone need to stay up late? Put your kids to bed at 7 and enjoy two blissful hours of adult time, then hit the sack. It’s win-win for everyone! Lots of sleep: My husband loves to burn the candles at both ends and he functions well on six or less hours of sleep. But, I develop acute nausea and headaches with anything fewer than eight hours. I can muddle through a night spent nursing a puking preschooler or comforting a sister in labor, but I am much nicer and prettier if I get my shuteye. No hangovers: Like most nursing home residents, I am a lightweight drinker. One beer is plenty to keep me chatty and happy; if I drank alcohol in the evening I would sleep poorly and risk my hours of beauty rest. So, I drink at lunchtime; the inevitable headache and dry mouth hit before dinner, and I feel splendid by bedtime.

Staying skinny: It’s a no-brainer eating heavy meals late in the evening can lead to heartburn and thigh fat. Your body doesn’t have time to process the meal before you lie flat for a third of your day. This is one of the reasons why I like eating dinner early, around 5:30 p.m. Does this schedule coincide with my grandmothers’? Yes, but mine weren’t obese and they lived well into their 80s. Early morning solitude: I have four children who can be the neediest little boogers in the world and I work full-time with demanding teenagers. Then there is Doo, the cat and gecko, the house, homework and soccer. So when is the only time to savor a cup of coffee or go for a jog? Six in the morning, before anyone is awake and wanting something from me. Thanks to all of the aforementioned reasons, my energy level allows me to be productive and have a good attitude about life. Although I could fit in at Sunrise Senior Community, I adore tapioca pudding, playing bingo and water aerobics. So bring it on, hecklers: This is my geriatric lifestyle, and I’m proud of it! Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a Carmel resident and contributing columnist. You may e-mail her at danielle@ currentincarmel.com.

Providing hope to homeless veterans By Ellen Kizik Current in Carmel Recently, two Carmel locals with big hearts, have teamed up to start MyGoTo-HamiltonCountyIN.com. Lois Wyant and Shawn Linderman’s initiative is community-focused, with the primary goal to promote locally-owned businesses in Hamilton County. What sets their company apart, is the secondary mission of their endeavor, which provides assistance to homeless veterans. By uniting with an organization called Save Our Veterans, MyGoTo hopes to get veterans off the streets. Wyant and Linderman met 12 years ago, when Wyant was hired to take photographs of Linderman and her son. Wyant and her husband own Wyant Photography in Carmel. Now, Wyant and Linderman want to give back to the men and women who give us freedom. “Those veterans gave up their lives to protect the people of our country and it is time for us to protect and honor them,” Wyant said. “Many veterans return with difficulties, many have fallen through the cracks and gone unnoticed, Linderman said. “It is the mission of ‘MyGoTo’ to stand beside them in times of need.” According to Linderman, MyGoTo and Save Our Veterans work together to give veterans an opportunity to have a productive life and help those in need achieve their goals. Both programs will help veterans find housing, transportation and employment opportunities with

Lois Wyan and Shawn Linderman MyGoTo-USA.com.” For more than 30 years, Linderman‘s brother, Brian Brady-Sergeant First Class, served his country. He was a leading expert in training soldiers to handle explosive devices. During a mission, he was exposed to high levels of radiation, he passed away six years later from cancer. The loss of her brother inspired Linderman to take action. ‘MyGoTo’ provides such an opportunity. For more information, please visit www. MyGoTo-HamiltonCountyIN.com or contact Shawn Linderman directly at shawnl@mygotoUSA.com or 317-319-3222. There are well over 1,200 homeless veterans in Indiana alone.

pers made a good effort but that was short-lived, as its readership dropped to approximately 12 percent; it simply wasn’t relevant. So the city is taking matters into its own hands and proactively getting the word out in the form of a new monthly newsletter, mailed to every resident in the city, no matter the ZIP code. If you missed the July issue of “Your City Matters,” you missed out on succinct information regarding the proposed Grand Park; the Grand Junction Plaza Schematic Design; progress on the East Access Road; a U.S. 31 project update; Monon Trail development status; and the Westfield Youth Assistance Program and more. Look for the August issue in coming weeks. It’ll be the size of a regular 8 ½ by 11 sheet of paper folded over once. (That’s 8 ½ by 5 ½ for all of you in Yorba Linda). It’s full-color and glossy, with the new city logo at the top. I wish I could say, “You can’t miss it.” City Councilor Ken Kingshill is a Westfield resident and Realtor. You may e-mail him at kkingshill@westfield. in.gov.

Editor’s note: The article “Safety, good times equally important for Eddy’s owner” which ran in the Tuesday, July 12 edition of the Current incorrectly listed Scott Cullumber as the owner of Eddy’s Neighborhood Bar & Grill at Geist. Cullumber should have been attributed as the owner of Eddy’s Sports Pub in Noblesville. Eddy’s Neighborhood Bar & Grill at Geist is owned by Scott Foster, and is unaffiliated with Eddy’s Sports Pub. By Jordan Fischer Current in Westiield Like portraits in an art gallery, flat screen televisions and hi-definition projectors fill the walls of Eddy’s Sports Pub in Noblesville – just to be sure every patron, said owner Scott Cullumber, has a “great view of the game.” Customer service is key for Cullumber and his staff, who said, despite a “Cheers” feeling the high number of regulars give to the bar, every newcomer is warmly greeted. Looking to expand that service further, in June Cullumber began offering patrons a shuttle ride back and forth from the Verizon Wireless Music Center. “The idea was convenience,” Cul-

lumber said. “It can be a hassle getting in and out of (Verizon) for a concert. So, now not only can you come hang out and have a great time with us, but you don’t have to drive in and out of the venue, or deal with parking.” Available on concert nights, as well as Fridays and Saturdays, the shuttle is a $5 ride for patrons. According to Cullumber, the shuttle driver has rarely been wanting for passengers. “The response has been pretty good,” he said. “Everyone who has taken it has loved it.” And, he said, the shuttle hasn’t been bad for business, either. Cullumber is even looking to expand the availability of the shuttle services to include Sundays when the football season starts up in the fall. Eddy’s Sports Pub is located at 14160 Mundy Dr., Noblesville. For more information, visit www. eddyssportspub.com/, or call 317-773-3874.

Commentary By Ken Kingshill I hope you didn’t throw it out with the junk mail. I hate to admit it, but I almost did. One of my colleagues on the City Council adamantly denies that he threw it out. He claims he was left off the mailing list even though everyone else on his street got one. What am I talking about? I’m talking about Westfield’s latest effort to communicate more effectively with its residents. It’s the monthly newsletter titled, “Your City Matters,” which you should have received in the mail a couple weeks ago. Effective communication has long been a real problem for us. There is no newspaper that focuses entirely on Westfield and reaches all Westfield residents. Current in Westfield is a good attempt, but it falls short because the post office won’t recognize every Westfield address as actually BEING in Westfield, and Current delivers to 100 percent of ZIP codes; in our case, that’s 46074. The Indianapolis Star’s attempts at focusing on Westfield matters continue to erode as the traditional newspaper business model. Years ago, Topics Newspa-

Free or for free? GRAMMAR LESSON By Brandie Bohney I recently received an email from a reader suggesting I discuss the use of the proliferation, for free when saying free of charge is more appropriate. It’s a good idea, too, because I’m guessing most people don’t even realize saying you got something for free or you’ll do something for free is grammatically incorrect. Free is an adjective, adverb, or verb. So, free cannot be the object of the preposition for. Objects of prepositions, by definition, must be nouns or pronouns. That’s the grammar. In many cases of debatable uses of language, it doesn’t exactly end with the grammar. The construction for free has become so widely used it is now considered an idiom by many people. The most common definition of an idiom is a phrase or construction wherein the intended meaning is not literally discernable. For example: raining cats and dogs, hat trick, nest egg, or kick the bucket. But another definition of an idiom is “linguistic usage that is grammatical and natural to native speakers of a language.” (http://dictionary.reference.com/ browse/idiom) The second definition is probably how for free is now seen as idiomatic. While the construction is not grammatical, it is natural for many Amer-

8 | July 19, 2011

ican English speakers. I use the construction in casual conversation. In fact, in my initial online search, I discovered dozens of websites offering grammar instruction or correction “for free.” Perhaps those sites aren’t the best ones to approach for grammatical advice, but it illustrates how widespread the issue is. You may be wondering at this point where I stand on the for free issue. I’ve already admitted to using the construction; that may provide a clue. I think in informal speaking and writing, idiomatic expressions – for free included – are completely acceptable. The problem is when informal communication seeps into formal writing and speaking. As in so many other areas of language, what is acceptable with one group of people may not be acceptable with another. If you can differentiate with ease, using idioms should be no problem for you. However, if you tend to develop linguistic habits that don’t change regardless of your audience, it’s best for you to use free of charge rather than for free. There you have it: grammar instruction, free of charge. Brandie Bohney is a grammar enthusiast and former English teacher. If you have a grammarrelated question, please email her at bbthegrammarguru@gmail.com.

Government agencies unite to help at-risk youth By Lindsay Eckert Current in Westfield A local organization is breathing life into the homes of troubled teens and helping Hamilton county’s at-risk youth write a new chapter in their lives. Westfield’s Youth Assistance Program, established in 2009, is driven by a once seemingly unlikely collaboration of community members. Government agencies are helping send more than 300 kids on a road that will lead to a career, snot a permanent record. Although many towns have tried to develop a community-funded program offering tutoring and counseling to motivate students for a successful future, few have been able to accomplish it; losing students to the legal system. But, Westfield community leaders haven’t let bureaucracy plow down city agencies’ and Mayor Andy Cook’s passionate dreams for the program. The city of Westfield, Westfield Washington Schools, Hamilton county prosecutor’s office, Hamilton county Department of Probation Services, Lord of Life church, County Judges Paul Felix and Steve Nation, Hamilton county fire departments and the program’s board have united to identify at-risk youth and provide preventative services to children and their families. “The difficult things are the most valuable things to do; getting all the agencies to work together was complicated, but without strong leaders it couldn’t happen,” Cook said. “Once the key agencies saw the value of prevention it was worth the battle against obstacles.” Last year, the group’s collective efforts motivated Felix and Nation to issue a court order that allowed the appointment of probation officers to identify children who may directly benefit from the program’s services. The order expanded to requires a Web site, which informs families about programs like 4-H, Boy Scouts and positive organizations to help families resurface from the dark depths of misfortune. The program’s success garnered attention from legislators. It was signed into law by Gov. Mitch Daniels after a unanimous vote in Congress. The law gives juvenile court judges the ability to order agency involvement in the voluntary program. The law allows court-appointmened probation officers to be relocated as

spreventative officers for the program. Although state Congress offered state and federal funding, Mayor Cook and the board declined. Instead, they depend on communitywide fundraisers; “raising funds is a key part of community involvement and the promotion of the program’s success,” Cook said. Cook said the two-year-old program has already decreased school absenteeism and costs for juvenile detention centers, adding, “the dollar value of turning a child’s life around can make a huge dent in today’s problems.” Former probation officer Tricia Akers was moved into the Youth Assistance Program as the first preventative officer in 2009, after working with adult offenders for 16 years. Now, she has an active role to save children from slipping into a mirrored life of the criminals she worked with for more than a decade. “I would hear the difficult situations many of the adult offenders survived in their young years,” Akers said. “If early intervention services [like this program] were available for many of the offenders; I think they would’ve been able to avoid the legal system.” Preventative officers like Akers are responsible for counseling students and matching them with volunteer mentors and tutors. The mentors and tutors undergo professional training to help steer children towards success and become role

models who motivate students to participate in positive organizations. Some of those role models are high school students. Nearly 50 students volunteer each year to offer a kind of support at-risk youth may not find anywhere else. “The students are there every week for their elementary students and are in their classrooms,” Cook said. “You can just see these kids excited and thinking these big kids are here for me, someone is paying attention to me.”

In the two years of the program’s existence, they have taken in nearly 300 students. Akers said the improvement she sees in students stems from the dedication of more than 100 volunteer tutors and mentors who she matches with individual students. “The best part of my job is seeing the change in the children who are matched with mentors,” Akers said. “The mentors are truly changing lives.”

Snip off the old flower clusters from rambler roses to encour-

age them to bloom all summer. 3.

Here’s what you should do. For four servings, take eight ounces of large white mushrooms. Trim and thread them onto skewers. Season by brushing them with two teaspoons of oil.

You have one, and your rental company has the other.

As you handed them your passport and you signed a contract, you’re obligated to pay for it.

The case for Caprese COOKING By Clint Smith My reticence in featuring a Caprese salad was rooted in my unflinching suspicion readers would glance at the recipe’s title only to supply an uninspired mental shrug. However, properly prepared, the effects are culinary art. You might notice tri-colored combinations of tomatoes, mozzarella and basil is a salute to the Italian flag. So in the spirit of trinities, I’ll offer three reasons why this dish is a classic. First is timing. La Caprese appears on menus during a seasonal window when ingredients are at

Caprese salad with basil oil and balsamic syrup Ingredients • 4 vine-ripened tomatoes, sliced thick • 16 ounces fresh mozzarella, sliced thick • 4 ounces fresh basil leaves • 8 ounces extra virgin olive oil • ½ cup premium balsamic vinegar • ½ tablespoon all-purpose flour Directions 1. For basil oil: drop two ounces of basil leaves in

their peak. Season popularity leads to my second reason: simplicity. You have two main components with the addition of basil; however, if you add an extra bit of personality and a touch of balsamic vinegar you have the ideal taste. It feels good to revisit familiar things. While familiarity may breed contempt, the classic La Caprese has earned an enduring exemption.

boiling water for 20 seconds until color becomes vibrant. Quickly plunge basil into ice-cold water to retain color. Remove, pat dry, and add to a blender. Pour in olive oil and blend (adding more oil if needed) until oil is bright green. Strain mixture through mesh sieve and set aside. 2. For syrup: in small sauce pan, bring balsamic vinegar to a simmer; in a small bowl, add a few tablespoons of vinegar along with flour and mix with your finger to eliminate clumps. Pour flour-vinegar mixture into balsamic to thicken (adjust consistency with water). Allow to cool. 3. Arrange tomatoes, mozzarella, and remaining two ounces of basil on plates by stacking ingredients. Serve with basil oil and balsamic syrup.

Santa Maria Grilled Tri-tip Ingredients • 2 to 2 1/2 lb beef tri-tip roast • 1 tablespoon fresh ground black pepper • 2 teaspoons salt • 1/2 tablespoon paprika • 1 teaspoon garlic powder • 1 teaspoon onion powder • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper • 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard • 1/3 cup red wine vinegar • 1/3 cup vegetable oil • 4 cloves crushed garlic Directions 1. Combine the black pepper, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, rosemary, and cayenne in a small bowl. Rub on to all surfaces of the tri-tip. Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours. Remove and let sit out for 30 minutes at room temperature. 2. Add the Dijon, vinegar, vegetable oil, and crushed garlic to a jar with a lid and shake vigorously until emulsified. 3. Prepare your charcoal or gas barbecue grill for direct low/medium heat (if you want to

be authentic use soaked oak or mesquite chips too!). Place the tri-tip on the grill and brush with the oil and vinegar mixture. Turn every 3-4 minutes, basting generously each time. Grill for 25-30 minutes for medium-rare (internal temp of 130 degrees F.). The outside of the roast will get very dark and develop a charred crust, this is desired and one of the signature characteristics of this BBQ recipe. Remove the tri-tip from the grill to a large platter. Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing in 1/4” thick pieces across the grain.

Benefits of an automatic sprinkler system LANDSCAPING By Mark Skipper An automatic sprinkler system is a home improvement project worth considering. Not only will it help maintain a healthy beautiful landscape, but it’s the most convenient and efficient way to ensure landscaping gets the water it needs without insufficient watering. When it is properly installed and maintained an automatic sprinkler system will also help conserve water. A professionally or DIY-installed automatic sprinkler system is one of the best investments to make for a home. There is no easier or more cost-effective way to beautify homes, increase a house’s value while saving time and money. However, there is more to a sprinkler system than just sprinklers. System design and installation are critical factors that will affect a system’s performance and longevity. Along with ensuring a sprinkler system is properly designed and installed, a rain shut-off and moisture sensing devices are available. They can help cut more water and increase cost savings over the lifetime of the sprinkler system. Landscaping reflects the pride taken in a home and a neighborhood. An automatic irriga-

tion system is the easiest way to keep landscaping beautiful and provide three great dividends: • Simplicity – Save time and effort. Once an irrigation system is installed hoses won’t be sprawled across a yard. There won’t be any discrepancies while figuring out water distribution. • Efficiency – Since the system is automatic, it provides more free time for its clients. • Value – Attractive landscaping requires substantial investment and careful maintenance. An automatic irrigation system will protect investments by assuring healthier and longer living plants and turf. Plus, installing a system is a convenience “upgrade” that will measurably increase property value. A custom-designed irrigation system, the landscaping system will be fitted with the proper water-saving sprinklers and spray heads. Plus, a controller to automatically turn the system on and off on a precise schedule. The end result will be a likely reduction in water bills and a definite savings of time and effort. So put away the garden hose and go automatic! Enjoy greener grass, healthier plants and much more free time to smell the roses instead of watering them.

DISPATCHES » A 10-minute milk makeover – Soak a clean washcloth in cold milk and place it over your face for 10 minutes. “Milk contains proteins, fat, amino acids and Vitamin A – all of which reduce redness and calm irritated skin,” says Dr. David Bank, a dermatologist in New York. Also, the lactic acid in milk exfoliates, so your skin should look soft and glowing. -www.msnbc.com » Cutting salt doesn’t help heart? – In a systematic review published by The Cochrane Library, British scientists found that while cutting salt consumption did appear to lead to slight reductions in blood pressure, that was not translated into lower death or heart disease risk. The researchers said they suspected the trials conducted so far were not big enough to show any benefits to heart health, and called for large-scale studies to be carried out soon. -Reuters » Grudges cause back pain? – When researchers at Duke University Medical Center studied 58 women and men with chronic lower-back pain, they found those who practiced forgiveness experienced less anger, resentment, depression—and aches. “Our emotions, muscle tension, and thoughts can directly influence the strength of our pain signals,” says researcher James W. Carson, PhD. -www.prevention.com

» Vaccine causes narcolepsy? – New data has added more evidence supporting a link between the 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccine and narcolepsy in children and adolescents. The findings suggest those who were vaccinated had a close to 66 percent increase in risk for the condition. The Sweden’s Medical Products Agency examined cases of narcolepsy with cataplexy reported in young people (19 years and under) in Sweden, and found out of 81 cases examined, 85 percent had received the Pandemrix vaccine before illness onset. -www.mercola.com » Oregano for arthritis – Oregano helps alleviate osteoarthritis and other inflammatory conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis. This spice contains natural compounds that have many of the same effects as the powerful anti-inflammatory COX-2 inhibitor drugcelecoxib (Celebrex). It also contains dozens of other anti-inflammatory compounds that act as muscle relaxants and pain relievers. Unlike celecoxib, oregano actually protects the heart by helping to prevent blood clots and irregular heart rhythms. -Bottom Line Health » Americans get fatter – An annual report put out by two public health groups shows that America is getting fatter. Adult obesity rates have increased in 16 states in the past year, with 12 states now reporting at least 30% of their populations as obese. No states showed a decrease. -www.time.com

What is it with ‘eating clean’ nowadays? NUTRITION By Laura Marenco If you have been exercising for a few months and you are not seeing the results you expected your diet may be holding you back (assuming you are a healthy adult). Eating habits might make us or break us when it comes to achieving fitness benchmarks. We all have different goals, but we all strive to improve our eating habits and begin eating clean. What is clean eating? Well, let’s put it this way, if you are eating something that came through the window of your car, something crunchy that comes out of a bag or is meat ready to eat in a sandwich, you aren’t eating clean. Eating clean means focusing your diet on whole foods, fresh vegetables and fruits, whole grains and lean meats. You must eat breakfast! Not trying to go old school, but mom was right about this one. The most important meal of the day should consist of a healthy source of protein such as egg whites; complex carbohydrates such

16 | July 19, 2011

as old fashion oatmeal, along with fresh fruit such as strawberries or blueberries. Don’t forget your healthy fats, toss some raw walnuts in your bowl and you have a revved up breakfast! Promise! Remember to eat small meals throughout the day. It is best to eat 200 to 350 calorie meals every three or four hours, depending on your activity level and gender. The main idea here is to avoid sitting down and eating a 600 to 800 calorie meal, which will push you into a siesta in seconds. Balance is key in all aspects of life, and our diets should also follow suit. I am not a perfect eater, but I manage to maintain a healthy lean physique simply through discipline: weight training, cardio on most days but most of all… I eat clean 95 percent of the time.

You’ll Find It All Here. Call The Stratford at 317-733-9560 today and learn how our retirement lifestyle can impact your wellness, peace of mind and overall well-being.

Laura owns a Personal Training studio in Carmel, runs Fit Carmel Moms bootcamp, holds a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and is a nutritional consultant at Point Blank Nutritition.

Men: A Guide to Summer Trends Women are not the only ones wanting to keep up with the latest trends. A first impression really comes down to the way you look and carry yourself. Whether you are preparing for a big board meeting, getting ready for date night, or just hanging with your guys, stand out with a haircut that suits you.

Piecey: Any of these styles can be done with a more classic touch or all the way for a real trendy look. To keep it classic, your stylist can give you a conservative cut and a slight side part. Focus on a less precise part and use hair wax or pomade to play with the hair to emphasize a messy technique. For an even bolder approach keep hair long and go for the “bedhead” style which will require layering by your stylist. To achieve this look, use wax for thick hair or a gel-mousse for thinner strands. Apply the product using your fingers to separate strands and place in different directions. Do not overuse the product. You can always add a little more if your hair isn’t laying right. Hairspray is a must for keeping your messy look all day long.

Front Wave: To make the front wave look classic, it’s best to imitate a natural windswept look. To achieve this look your stylist will need to give you a medium length cut. Apply mousse when hair is wet, and blow-dry using your fingers to draw hair upward and slightly to the side of the face. Finish it off by combing your hair on towards the back of your head. For the bolder wave, keep hair longer, which will require a bit more product. The product can also add sheen which will make the wave stand out even more. This style is fun for more formal occasions. For the “wet look” use gel rather than mouse and concentrate on the section of the hair closest to the face. Make sure to still pull hair to one side and sweep back with a brush.

Commentary By Brian Harter Question from Tyler H. from Noblesville: I’ve never been in an auto accident (knock on wood), but I saw one yesterday on my way to work and it got me thinking: What do I need to do if I’m in one? Response from Brian Harter: Being in an automobile accident, no matter how minor, is a scary thing to experience. Your independent insurance agent should be able to provide you with a card to keep in your glove box 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 away from 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

18 | July 19, 2011

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. Coverage Recommendations Driving without insurance coverage in Indiana is illegal, and a great way to end up with a suspended license or serious financial problems. The starting point for insurance in Indiana is the required state minimum coverage: $25,000 per injured person, $50,000 per accident, and $10,000 for property damage. However, those amounts won’t get you very far when it comes time to settle a claim. They also provide you zero protection from motorists that drive around without insurance or with inadequate 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 homeowner’s policy. Adding comprehensive and collision coverage, and adjusting the cost of your deductibles, is something you should talk with your independent agent about.

Human foods to avoid feeding to your pets

DISPATCHES » A dog’s warm nose – The origin: There is no identifiable origin for this myth. People just seem to think that a dog with a warm and/or dry nose is sick, and that a dog with a cold wet nose is well. The truth: If a dog has a dry or warm nose, it means that he has a dry or warm nose. A dry nose or a mildly warm nose has nothing to do with the overall health of a dog. -www.petwave.com » Home flea remedies – If you don’t want to use a flea collar with insecticides, active ingredients such as eucalyptus, cedar, lemongrass, rosemary and marigold won’t exterminate, but will deter fleas. Also, feed your pet a combination of brewer’s yeast and garlic once a day during flea season. The mixture will make your pet taste bad to fleas when they bite, while also conditioning your pet’s skin. -www.almanac.com

PETS By Dr. Greg Maggnusson Chocolate, Coffee, Caffeine These products all contain substances called methylxanthines. When ingested by pets, methylxanthines can cause vomiting, diarrhea, abnormal heart rhythm and even death. Darker chocolate is more dangerous than milk chocolate Alcohol Alcoholic beverages and food products containing alcohol can cause vomiting, central nervous system depression, difficulty breathing, coma and even death. Avocado Though there is some controversy all avocados are toxic, it is certain that leaves, seeds, and bark of the avocado tree contain Persin, which can cause vomiting and diarrhea in dogs. Depending on the amount ingested, it may be fatal.

Grapes and Raisins Although the toxic substance within grapes and raisins is unknown, these fruits can cause kidney failure. Yeast Dough Yeast dough can cause gas to accumulate in your pet’s digestive system. This can be painful and can cause the stomach or intestine to rupture. Raw/Uncooked Meat, Eggs, and Bones Raw meat and raw eggs can contain bacteria such as Salmonella and E. coli that can be harmful to pets. Raw eggs contain an enzyme called avidin that decreases the absorption of biotin (a B vitamin), which can lead to skin and coat problems. Onions, Garlic, and Chives Can cause gastrointestinal irritation and could lead to red blood cell damage. Although cats are more susceptible, dogs

are also at risk if a large enough amount is consumed. Milk Most pets are lactose intolerant because pets do not possess significant amounts of lactase (the enzyme that breaks down lactose in milk). Milk and other milk-based products cause diarrhea and digestive problems. Salt Large amounts of salt can produce excessive thirst and urination, depression and death. many salty foods include vomiting, Dr. Magnusson, a practicing veterinarian for the last decade, is now the owner of Leo’s Pet Care, a new veterinary hospital located at 106th and College.
