COMMUNITY People in the news Resident searching for unknown Good Samaritan By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Roy Duhamel, 79, took up bicycling in his early 60’s in Missouri on flat dirt “rails to trails” like Katy Trail. The Westfield resident regularly rides county roads north of Noblesville and recently had a very bad biking experience. Duhamel wanted to share his experience, particularly with other bike riders, and ask for assistance in finding the person who may have saved his life: “Don’t go biking in extreme heat! I did and paid for it! I am trying to find the Samaritan who may have saved my life on June 28. I park at Potters Bridge in Noblesville, and bike from the parking lot up Allisonville Rd. to Riverwood Ave. and E. 221st St. to Overdorf Rd. and points north – usually about 10.5 miles. It was 94 degrees when I started; it got to 105 degrees that afternoon. I carry two 24 oz. bottles of water and Gatorade and sip on them frequently. I called my wife at about six miles out, while on Overdorf, and she talked me into turning around to return to the car. Right after that the problem started! I never felt dizzy or nauseous, but I do remember seeing an intersection about 100 yards up the road and then everything blacked out. The next clear knowledge I had was being in the back of an ambulance on the way to Riverview
Hospital. I was there for two days taking tests and recovering. My left arm and leg were both covered with skinned and raw injuries. My upper left shoulder was actually burned from contact with the blacktop. My head had an injury inside the helmet area. The helmet was damaged on the left side and cannot be used again. I talked to the sheriffs’ deputy who responded to the accident. He told me I was found on the blacktop face down and unconscious by a passerby in a pickup truck. He got me off the highway, retrieved my bike and put me inside his air conditioned truck until the ambulance arrived. He must have departed right after that since the sheriffs’ deputy did not speak with him. The deputy said he questioned me and I was “confused” – it’s likely I had a minor concussion. I have no memory of the earlier conversation with him or the EMT who responded.” Duhamel said he “feels fine, all things considered” and has resumed his exercises and bike riding – just not in extreme heat – as he rebuilds his stamina for 22 mile trips. “Just a few days ago I had my first bike ride – a short one, only 5.95 miles,” he said. “I was just absolutely beat.” If anyone knows who the Good Samaritan was who helped Duhamel that fateful day, please call him at 804-9055. “I would really like to thank him,” he said.
DIVORCE – WHAT TO EXPECT: Modification of Child Support In family law cases, there are times when one parent seeks a modification of the child support obligation. Either party may seek a modification of child support on one of two grounds: (1) showing a change in circumstances so substantial and continuing as to make the terms of the current child support order unreasonable; or (2) upon a showing that a party has been ordered to pay an amount in child support differs by more than twenty percent (20%) from the amount that would be ordered by applying the child support guidelines AND the order requested to be modified was issued at least twelve (12) months prior to the date the petition to modify was filed. A modification may be appropriate in a number of circumstances or contexts. This may include, but is not limited to, the following: (1) when one party loses his/her employment; (2) when one party receives a promotion or higher paying position; (3) when the parenting time schedule with the children changes; (4) when health insurance premiums for the children or work-related childcare expenses change; (5) when a child becomes emancipated as a matter of law for child support purposes; (6) when a party has a subsequent child(ren); or (7) a combination of any of the above. One would be wise to seek the assistance of counsel in determining how to proceed if you believe requesting a modification of child support is appropriate, as there can be changes which may impact child support, but which do not warrant a modification of child support. If you request a modification of child support, you may request that the modification be retroactive to the date upon which you file your Petition For

Current in Westfield
Modification Of Child Support. Specifically, the parent seeking the modification may request that a credit for any overpayments or underpayments in support be considered from the time the Petition is filed to the time the child support is modified by Court Order. Child support issues can become complex. Issues concerning imputing income to a parent who is allegedly under-employed is a commonly litigated issue. In addition, the treatment of bonus and/or overtime income can present challenges. Also, it is not unusual for a request to modify child support to be met with a request to modify parenting time by the other parent, as the number of overnights is a key part of the child support calculation. If one party’s circumstances change such that the parent is incapable of paying the Court-ordered child support obligation, it is imperative that he/she bring this to the Court’s attention as soon as possible so as to avoid becoming in arrears with the child support payments. At Hollingsworth & Zivitz, P.C., our team has the experience, the understanding, and the compassion to assist with your family law needs. If you have questions or concerns regarding divorce, mediation, collaborative law or any other family law concerns, please contact our firm at 317.DIVORCE or visit our website at www.hzlegal.com.

NEW HOPE FOR CHILDREN with Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADD and ADHD
Highly Trained Medical Staff • Advanced Individualized Treatment Options • Most Major Medical Insurance Plans Accepted Genetic Consultation • Review of Medical records • Laboratory testing
“While early intervention is critical, ASD Treatment Clinic taught us it is never too late with children on the Autism Spectrum. We have three teenage children on the spectrum with varying ranges of disabilities. With Genetic Consultants of Indiana, ASD Treatment Clinic we learned what was happening to our children from the inside out. I call it our roadmap. We found out what our children needed without guessing or trying experimental treatments. Plus we loved that our major medical insurance was accepted.” - Bob & Sharon Smith, IN
“A child sneaks out of the house, runs away, is hyper, has minimal focus and can’t socialize with friends for more than a minute. That used to be our son, Jack.
• SOCIALIZATION: Why is my child having difficulty making friends? • IMPULSIVENESS: Why doesn’t my child understand consequences of his/her actions? • FOCUSING: Why does my child have problems paying attention in school and at home? • HYPERACTIVITY: Why can’t my child sit still, and has trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep? • ANGER: Why does my child display such anger and gets out of control with his/her emotions? If you can relate to any of these questions there is help.
People think the answer to autism and ADHD are psychiatric medicines, but we knew that was only going to cover up his real symptoms. Despite this, we tried several mainstream treatments that produced little to no results. In the six months that Jack has been on the protocol through ASD Treatment Clinics, he has experienced much improvement with his focus, learning ability, behavior and overall wellbeing. Early intervention is very important for children on the autism spectrum and we thank God that we were led to the ASD Treatment Clinic. Jack now has a treatment that we can trust will improve not only his life but the lives of our entire family.” - Renee and Ted Zlotopolski, Arnold, MO

Education
Meet your teachers: Cory Wenrick Grade/Subject at what school: Sixth grade math, Westfield Intermediate School Number of years teaching: 13 years Background/Schooling (college & high school): Jasper High School Jasper; B.S. elementary education, Indiana University; M.A. Educational Technology, IUPUI. Why did you become a teacher? Although I always viewed my elementary school teachers as role models, it was not until high school that I made the decision to become a teacher. While at Jasper High School, I was involved in an “All-Star” program where high school students would visit elementary classrooms and teach lessons about making good choices. I think spent more time planning those weekly lessons than I would on my own homework! What goals do you have for your students? I want my students to feel confident in their abilities. I want them to experience the satisfaction that results from pursing a challenge and ending with success. What do you encourage parents to do at home to help their children strengthen particular skills? I hope to focus on encouraging my students as often as I can this year. In the day to day tasks, I often forget that an encouraging note or comment could go further than a review lesson, extra practice, and so on. I have been reminded of this truth by watching my two year old son! His favorite phrase is “I did it!” Since my husband and I applaud every little new skill he tries, it is no wonder why he always exclaims “I did it!” My son thinks he can do anything because Mom and Dad are jumping up and down and celebrating his achievements. I would like to encourage parents to show genuine excitement in their child’s abilities, achievements, and growth. Surely it will not take long before you begin to hear, “I did it!” Name your favorite movie. I love the classic movies from the 80s like “The Breakfast Club,” “Footloose” and ‘The Goonies,” to name a few. I also enjoy watching Curious George. It is the only television show that my active two year old will be still through long enough to sit on my lap! Name your favorite musician or band. I just attended a Mumford and Sons concert this summer. If my husband and I were retired and had the time, we probably would follow them around the country on this tour! What’s something your students might not know about you? I have my childhood Curious George stuffed animal sitting on my dresser. I’ve had this stuffed animal since I was a year old! Fall Festival raises funds for YAP – Ameriana Bank will donate $5 to Westfield’s Youth Assistance Program on behalf of each person who attends its fourth annual Fall Festival from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Oct. 13, up to the first 400 people.

In addition, Westfield fire and police dept.’s will have a fire truck and police car on display. In 2011, more than 300 attendees raised more than $1,500 for YAP.

Cover Story
Garden at Heartland Growers opened in honor of mothers, love of flowers Katy Frantz • katy@youarecurrent.com Jim Gapinski can remember a small greenhouse in his hometown in Illinois. He can remember the perfume from the flowers and musty soil. His mother, an avid gardener, would always bring him on her frequent visits to that greenhouse. Now Gapinski is the owner of Heartland Growers, the 25-acre greenhouse operation in Westfield. The number of fall mums units Heartland After completing an associate’s degree in business manageproduces in various colors and sizes ment, Gapinski worked in a greenhouse. When he was told about wholesale flower business in Westfield, he took on the challenge of growing the business.

Gapinski bought the land and began developing the greenHeartland produces in various house and creating retention ponds as a water source. Holiday colors and sizes The Gapinski home is on the property of Heartland Gardens. As their nine children grew, the home and the business were interconnected. Gapinski said he would go to work early in the morning and return for a mid-morning coffee with his wife – an old-fashioned, Dutch tradition. The family had lunch together and even took the family Christmas picture in front of the poinsettias grown for the holiday-season sales. Gapinski said his children worked in the greenhouse. Three children and a daughter-in-law remain in the business while some have used their knowledge of flowers in other careers. Recently, Gapinski and his team of growers and gardeners created a blooming trial garden in memory of his mother, Clara Gapinski, and his wife’s mother, Cora VanWingerden. “Both of our mothers loved plants. So we said the least we could do was dedicate it to them. We call it the Gardens at Heartland named after Cora and Clara,” Gapinski said.

Meet Jim Gapinski
◆ Residence: Westfield (on the Heartland Growers property) ◆ Hometown: Peru, Ill. ◆ Education: Associate’s degree in business management ◆ Hobbies: Family events, golfing and fishing ◆ Community efforts: He is on the Midwest Food Bank Board of Directors. He also started Abundant Harvest Farms, rubber farms in Liberia. The trees were planted seven years ago, and will be ready to harvest this year. His goal is for the farms to be a sustainable part of the community. ◆ Personal quote: “My faith is strong; I get to work with God’s created things, and it’s a blessing.” ◆ Favorite Flower: Rose (that is also his wife’s name)
Heartland Growers was one of many gardens across the United States that grew flower gardens and wrote reports on flower varieties for the nonprofit organization, All-America Selections. “They compile all the information and publish it. They’ll determine whether something makes the list to meet all the standards of All-America Selections,” Gapinski said. Doug Antle, one of the growers at Heartland Growers, was placed in the role as caretaker of the garden this past summer. He just recently finished the garden report. “Drought was the biggest challenge,” said Antle, adding the severe heat took a toll on some of the plants, but enough water was provided from Heartland Growers’ retention ponds. “It’s a good project, but it’s still new to us. It’s going to get better as the years on.” Those who visit the garden and wish to buy some of the flowers can visit Lowe’s or other independent garden centers. They would be tagged as Heartland Growers’ product. “We have a lot of space,” Gapinski said waving his hand across the open lawn beside the garden. “It’s still in its beginning state. We see this thing really growing and getting really, really beautiful.”

Opinion Mitt’s misstep? Chance for clarity
Hamilton County Rocks It is our position that Hamilton County is a great place to live, and now we have confirmation of that! Last month Money Magazine named Carmel as the best small town, topping a list of ninety-nine other towns across the country. The article applauds Carmel’s growth from sleepy Indianapolis bedroom community to a vibrant town in its own right. Among the reasons cited for living in Carmel are low unemployment, top schools, diversity of housing, a recreation center and of course the awe-inspiring Center for the Performing Arts. As the magazine article pointed out, as recently as five years ago, Main Street was mostly second hand shops housed in run-down storefronts, with a few die-hard businesses such as a barber shop and music center staying the course, and certainly not a place many people would want to spend leisure time. Today, there are vibrant restaurants, art museums, trendy shops, desserts to suit any taste, and easy access to The Monon Trail should one choose to walk or bicycle there rather than drive and park. It is also worth mentioning that Fishers was named number twelve in the same list. Spread the word: Hamilton County is a fine place to live!

Was Marley right?
Commentary by Terry Anker
Delusions of altruism aside, most humans are fundamentally self-interested. That doesn’t mean that we are all some form of Dickensonian Scrooge awaiting a visit from the three apparitions to put us on the path to righteousness. Instead, the statement simply acknowledges that we mostly tend to do what makes us feel good. Some of us like to run companies. Some of us like to run governments. Some of us like to teach. Others of us like to create. Whatever the proclivity, our natures will find a way to lead us there. Clearly, one’s motivation is rarely neatly segregated – it would be most accurate to understand that there are a plethora of reasons instigating our actions all-the-while recognizing that overarching themes drive us to make important life choices. This election is being framed, by those who chose to proclaim these kinds of things, as a voter’s decision between competing forms of government. The first, one would imagine, continues to grow and feed the administrative
state. The second, implied by reference, would attempt to shrink it by starvation. But as debates like this often become, the discourse has had very little to do with this issue. Instead, lines are drawn and the opposing sides square off talking more about whether entrepreneurs can own their successes and whether welfare recipients are being victimized by government largess. Does anyone really want to see folks suffer? I have to believe, absent a few sadists, that most of us want good for others. So is it possible that those across the political spectrum are really talking about the exact same thing from very different perspectives? And, if so, how do we come to conclusions about what the best mix might be? And, is it even possible to force an alignment of our individual interests to those of the state?

The ultimate inspiration is the deadline. - Nolan Bushnell Current in Westfield
We're sure you're aware of the latest controversy surrounding the presidential campaign. Republican challenger Mitt Romney has taken some heat for saying Americans “dependent” on government assistance “believe they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you name it. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.” We're glad he said it. The camera never blinks. This, we believe, is the fundamental issue in the presidential election to be decided Nov. 6 if not, effectively, beforehand. We need to decide what kind of nation we want to have. Do we want individual responsibility, to keep more of what we earn, to stop runaway regulation and to help only the truly needy? Or, do we want a nation based on collectivism, where the notion of individual is forsaken, thus creating a never-ending cycle of dependency? We’re unequivocally for the former. We hope Romney refuses to back away from his statements. We hope he takes the argument directly to voters. We're no fans of the former Massachusetts governor, who we see as a weak candidate at best. Still, his hopes very well could hinge on his ability to make a silk purse out of this sow’s ear. In the aftermath of his comments, he actually has presented himself an extraordinary opportunity to clarify that message and his policy stances - and to make crystal clear the contrasts between himself and incumbent President Barack Obama are as stark as we believe they are. That, we suppose, will be up to his team of advisors, and given that team’s performance (or lack of it) thus far, it makes for a scary proposition.

Prison is tough, but so is parenting Commentary by Danielle Wilson Prison is tough, for inmates at least. My husband and I are rather enjoying our term as wardens. We grounded our teenage son, see, and he’s struggling to adjust to a life behind bars. Attica! Make no mistake, Inmate 7 (as we’ve come to call him) is guilty. We warned him at the beginning of the school year about keeping up his grades, and thanks to the Internet, we can view them whenever we want. I couldn’t sleep the other night so I did a cursory background check on the suspect. Turns out our little juvie hasn’t exactly been toeing the academic line. The next morning, Doo and I subpoenaed the accused and heard his side. Then we read him his heavily amended Miranda rights and promptly threw him in the can. No trial, no jury, no phone call. (Chez Wilson is more like North Korea when it comes to civil liberties.) His first day of incarceration wasn’t too bad. He got work-release for school, and the football game he could no longer attend was cancelled as a results of inclement weather. But then the weekend arrived, and his confinement took on a whole new meaning. Fresh fish! Fresh fish! The complaining, whining, and general depression soon morphed into desperate requests for shock probation. Denied. Twice. He did the crime, he’s doing the time. Then it got really interesting. Apparently word of his confinement spread quickly among his
peeps, and we soon saw various attempts to jailbreak him. While he was mowing the back lawn, for example, two would-be accomplices tried to jump our storm-swollen creek and pass him food. Another “friend” boldly rang our doorbell with a mediocre cover story of having left his bike here and needing our perp to ride it back for him. Lame. How naïve do they think we are? And it’s not like he’s in solitary. We let him keep his cell phone, for Pete’s sake, which basically keeps him in touch with his entire posse. But he’d argue abuse is rampant. Physical labor, lack of junk food, and restrictions on electronics make him think he’s being water-boarded or something. Like Geneva even applies here. (North Korea, remember?) Sorry, Inmate 7. You’ll get your three hots and a cot and you’ll like it. Or not. We don’t really care. In fact, it’s almost entertaining to watch him grapple with the knowledge that he did this to himself. Hopefully, he’ll learn from his experience and make smarter choices next time. If not, we have no problem Shawshank-ing his behind again. Some kids just take longer to figure out how to make parole. Yes, prison is tough. But so is parenting. Deal with it. Peace out.

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie I have never been much of a handyman, which is why our last fix-it guy charged me $30.00 an hour—unless I helped him. Then it was $50.00 an hour. Now that I’m semi-retired, I have decided to try a few projects that I would never have attempted even a few years ago. My first goal was to do some repair work in the guest bathroom. I told my wife about my plans. “Mary Ellen, I have some exciting news about the toilet.” “Don’t tell me. You’re going to start putting the seat down?” I promised I would, but first I needed to find a replacement for the old one, so I headed out. “I’m looking for a toilet seat.” “Back of the store, in the center, behind the appliance section. FYI, there’s no lock on the door.” “No, I don’t want to use one. I want to buy a new seat.” “Sorry, Sir. What kind are you looking for— round or oblong?” I tried to picture our guests, but they come in so many shapes and sizes, I wasn’t sure what to do. Plus, just thinking about it was making me feel a little creepy. I took a guess and bought an oblong seat, unpacked it as soon as I got home and got to work. I was struggling with getting the bolts tightened, so I called my buddy, John, who knows about stuff like this. (Last year he repaired

our microwave oven in 30 seconds; the plug had come out of the wall.) I told John that when I sat down there was more jiggling than there used to be. He reminded me how old I was, so I can’t blame the jiggling on the toilet seat anymore. When Mary Ellen got home, I bragged about the bathroom renovation and told her that this week I was going to write my column on the new toilet seat. “Don’t you think you’d be more comfortable sitting at the computer desk?” she asked. I called my friend Bob and asked him to stop by so he would have a chance to see my handiwork. When he arrived, I offered him an ice cold beer. But he wasn’t biting…or drinking. “I’m way ahead of you, Dick. I ran into Mary Ellen at the drug store yesterday and she told me you’d probably want me to come over to admire your accomplishment. Your aim is just to get me to use your new facilities, right?” “Bob, just get in there and worry about your own aim.” Then Bob—just to drive me crazy—finished his beer and quickly left to go home. I don’t know when anyone else is going to stop by our place. I guess I have to be patient…and will try to sit tight.

Potter’s Bridge prepares for 13th fall festival By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com The Hamilton County Parks & Recreation Dept. will transform the usual tranquil Potter's Bridge Park, 19401 N Allisonville Rd., Noblesville, into a lively festival from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Oct. 6. Guests of the Potter's Bridge Fall Festival can listen to live music, visit the art and craft booths, take your little ones to the kid’s area, and enjoy the natural scenery of Noblesville's most scenic park on the White River Greenway Trail. Oct. 6 marks the 13th year of the free, annual festival. “It’s been a popular event for that long,” said Resource Development Specialist Don Nicholls of the HHCPR dept. Nicholls said the festival will include 70 vendors with a wide variety of products, entertainment and food. “It all takes place in the park setting. Local residents know it is a very peaceful and scenic park and the addition of the historic covered bridge is special,” he said. “Vendors have been coming for a long time and the first spot they ask for is on the covered bridge.” A 10x10 foot booth space is only $30 and Nicholls said the low price provides in home businesses or entrepreneurial individuals an opportunity to showcase their goods. “This is the least expensive way to sell arts and crafts for that kind of traffic and exposure,” said Nicholls. “The great variety adds to the popularity.” In addition to vendors, the festival will include a kid’s zone with the popular bounce house. Nicholls said parks staff will man an arts and crafts table and the park includes a large children’s playground. Entertainment will be provided by the Poison River Boys, a bluegrass band. “We’ll have a hay bale stage but asked they www.currentinwestfield.com

unplug and circulate among the festival so someone with a banjo may walk up to you and start strumming,” Nicholls said. Kara Joray has been a vendor at the Potter’s Bridge Fall Festival for the past three years. The Noblesville resident said she enjoys how it’s close to home, especially since she attends festivals all over Indiana. “I always ask for the bridge, it’s more fun that way,” she said. “I see a lot more local people around the neighborhood who come.” Joray’s business, Alpha Pics, sells photos of everyday objects the look like letters. She then frames or mount letters into words and names. Joray and her sister take all of the photos, which has become popular. “There’s a lot more competition than I had
four years ago when I started,” she joked. Wendy Blaylock of Corner Cottage is also preparing for her fourth fall festival. Blaylock, a resident of Muncie, said she enjoys the sight of the leaves changing colors and variety of vendors. “There are unique vendors there – a little more upscale, with nice quality handcrafted items. You find some interesting things there,” she said. “It’s scenic to walk around. Even if you don’t find anything, you don’t feel like you’ve wasted your time.” If you’re looking for fall flowers, check out Blaylock’s booth, which sells 50 different varieties of mums for $5 and 20 kinds of sunflowers.

A MUSICAL FABLE
SEPTEMBER 7-30, 2012 Tailgating treats to make before the game
Bars are a cross between a cake, pie, candy and cookie. They are prepared in a baking pan/ dish and then cut into hand size squares. They allow improvisation by the cook to add many tasty items not on a precise recipe. Bars can be served into a tailgater’s hand, on a napkin or a paper plate. They are eaten by hand and do not require a spoon or fork. They are served cold so they do not require heating at the tailgate site. Here’s one of my favorites. CARROT CAKE BARS
Ingredients: 1 cup flour, 1/2 cup whole wheat flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup chopped pecans, 3/4 cup canola oil, 1 cup packed light brown sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 cups carrots cut into 1/2 inch pieces Frosting: 6 ounces softened cream cheese, 1 cup confectioners sugar sifted, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 Tablespoon finely chopped pecans Prepare: Preheat oven to 350. Lightly butter a 13x9 baking dish. Combine flours, cinnamon, baking powder, nutmeg and salt in a large bowl; add the pecans; stir to blend. Place the oil, brown sugar, www.currentinwestfield.com
eggs and vanilla in the bowl of your food processor. Process until blended then gradually add the carrots through the feed tube while the motor is running. Process this until the carrots are finely chopped. Pour the carrot mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until well blended. Spread the batter into the prepared dish and bake for 35 minutes, or until the edges pull away from the sides and you can place a tooth pick into the middle and it comes out dry. Cool on a wire rack. To make the frosting beat the cream cheese and confectioners sugar until smooth. Add the lemon juice, nutmeg and vanilla. On game day, spread the frosting over the cooled bars and then sprinkle with chopped pecans. Cut into bars. Decorate each with an icing orange carrot with green leaves. Or decorate each with a team “letter” symbol, like a B for Bears or horseshoe for Colts, etc.

Cutting tobacco use for October could earn you $2,500 editorial@youarecurrent.com The Hamilton County Council on Alcohol and Other Drugs is encouraging residents to start training to win and sign up for the Quit Now Indiana contest. Reducing tobacco use saves lives, but pairing those efforts with healthy diet and exercise choices can make quitting tobacco for good that much easier. The 2012 Quit Now Indiana will once again challenge Hoosier smokers to quit tobacco for the month of October. According to the CDC, positive lifestyle changes increase the success rates of people trying to quit smoking. Good nutrition, increased consumption of water and exercise help with quitting tobacco. "Quitting tobacco often takes planning and preparation," said State Health Commissioner Gregory Larkin, M.D. “Make a ‘training’ plan for the first few months to help you form new habits during those times when you would be using tobacco. By incorporating more exercise into your day, making healthier eating choices, and drinking plenty of water, you’ll stay occupied, while at the same time, creating a healthier overall lifestyle and mindset. We have plenty of Quit Coaches at the Indiana Tobacco Quitline,
1-800-QUIT-NOW, who can provide training tips that meet your needs.” The statewide contest is designed to encourage Hoosiers using tobacco products to make an attempt to quit now by offering them a chance to win cash prizes up to $2,500 for remaining tobacco-free for 31 days. The promotional contest is part of a larger statewide campaign known as Quit Now Indiana, linking tobacco users to cessation resources. To be eligible to win, contestants must be 18 years or older, a legal resident of Indiana, a current tobacco user and stay tobacco free from Oct. 1-31. The registration period is open until Sept. 30. Contest winners will be drawn at random and will be tested to make sure they are tobacco-free to be eligible to claim a prize(s). The 2012 contest is supported by St. Vincent Health and MDWise Hoosier Alliance. Last year’s contest received more than 4,500 entries representing every county in Indiana. Eligible Hoosiers can register locally at the Noblesville Public Library, 1 Library Plaza. Online registration is available at www.QuitNowIndiana.com and www.INShapeIndiana.org. For contest rules and more resources, visit www. QuitNowIndiana.com.

Indiana Heart Hospital gets new moniker, continues serving Hamilton County By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com On Oct. 1, the Indiana Heart Hospital is going to begin transitioning into the Community Heart and Vascular Hospital. The hospital, which has been part of the Community Health Network for nearly 10 years, is going through the name change to eliminate confusion and build a stronger connection to the network, Tom Malasto, president of Community Heart and Vascular Hospital and chief operating officer for Community Hospitals of Indiana, said in a phone interview with Current. Malastro “The Indiana Heart Hospital, a long-standing anchor on the Community North campus, is changing its name, not only to bring it more closely into the Community Health Network family by name, but also to reflect the comprehensive range of state-of-the-art services and procedures available,” he stated previosuly in a press release. Many of the services, as well as staff and sup-
port, will not change. Some services will see expansion, according to Malasto. Traditional practices, like vascular surgical services, valve repair and care of congestive heart failure are in place. “We continue to evolve our services,” Malasto told Current. He said the hospital’s cardiovascular genetic counseling center is a point of pride, as well as electrophysiology. Clinicians from the Community Physician Network employ training in cardiovascular and medical genetics, helping patients understand “their risk of inherited heart disease and take steps to prevent or proactively manage the condition,” according to the press release. A combination of each patient’s personal experience and clinical outcomes set Community Heart and Vascular Hospital sets it apart, according to Malasto. Employees will started showing off the new facility name on team T-shirts at the American Heart Association Heart Walk on Sept. 15. The soon-to-be-named Community Heart and Vascular Hospital is connected to Community Hospitals East, North, South and Anderson via heart and vascular physicians in the Community Physical Network.

Insurance
Be covered while working from home Commentary by Jamie Ianigro
Question from Juliet M. from Westfield: I work from home once or twice a week. Are there any insurance issues I need to worry about? Response from Jamie Ianigro: If you have an ongoing arrangement that allows you to work at home in any capacity, you will be considered a telecommuter. The special privilege of reduced commuting also brings some special insurance considerations in play. Bringing your work home with you can have some unintended consequences. The main reason is because most homeowners policies severely restrict or exclude coverage for business property. This is further complicated by the fact that business property is usually pretty valuable. Business property could include anything your employer provides for you to work at home including computers, printers, phone equipment, valuable paperwork, etc. Liability issues can also arise when you’re working from home. A typical homeowners policy will completely exclude business related losses. A social guest slipping and falling is a simple, and common, claim that your homeowners policy will cover. Switch it around and make that guest a business guest and you can have liability issues for you and for your employer. Liability claims are never fun, but they’re a lot less fun when your homeowners policy excludes them.
Using your personal vehicle for job-related activities, like making deliveries or client calls, can also cause some issues. Most personal auto policies exclude job-related use. Driving to and from work would not fall under job-related use. Some examples of job-related use would be: picking up a client at the airport, running to the store to restock the office vending machine, driving to and from client appointments, etc. Now that you have a better idea of what you should be worried about, you should take a minute to document what you do so your employer and your independent insurance agent can make sure you’re covered properly. Make note of the following: • What routine job duties do you perform in your home? • Are any tasks hazardous? • Who visits your home because of your job? • Is a certain part of your home dedicated as a work area/office? • What equipment is used in your job? Who owns each piece of equipment? The answers to these questions will be a great start for you and your independent insurance agent to make sure you are adequately protected. Jamie Ianigro is with Shepherd Insurance & Finanacial Services. Have an insurance question you need answered? Send it to asktheadvisor@shepherdins.com.

My opinion: Oak Manor is one of the few custom home neighborhoods in Westfield at this price point. The home is located on a great waterfront lot with a walk out basement. This neighborhood is located close to great schools as well as nearby shopping. Address: 2670 Old Vines Dr. Year built: 2006 Style: Tradition American. Four bedrooms, 3.5 baths with modern kitchen including granite, stainless steel appliances and hardwood kitchen
floor, office on main level and finished basement. Strengths: Nice pond view lot, walk out finished basement. Good size deck off the rear of the home, side load garage. Brick on all four sides. Negatives: This home lacks polished fit and finish. Hardwoods are only in two areas and they are the older style of narrow plank. The appliances are average quality. The basement has no extra features you may expect at this price point. You can build new in this subdivision starting in the $400,000s.

Before stepping into the mall, however, it is smart to do some research and get a game plan together. It is easy to be fashionable and trendy without breaking the bank by incorporating just a few new pieces this season. Start with your feet and work up. Ankle boots and knee-high slouch boots in leather or suede, with buckles or other hardware accessories, lead the trend in footwear this season, and will automatically add sophistication to any outfit. There are several trends to keep your eye out for in clothing too. Long sleeve dresses, funnel neck sweaters and bright coats are just to name a few. Ruffles are hot this season for clothing and accessories. They will add a feminine touch to any look. Just remember, however, that ruffles add volume, so make sure they are strategically placed so they flatter your figure.

LEXUS ES SErIES Starts conversations. And then leaves you speechless.
Fall in love again
Commentary by David Decker
It’s a warm autumn day. The busy days of summer are over, the kids are back in school and a new routine is in place. You are happily adjusting back into the swing of things and then suddenly it happens. You peer over your coffee mug and take a long look around the kitchen. You find yourself daydreaming of what it would be like to change out that older faucet … and how easy would a large farmhouse style sink be when cleaning big pots and pans? What about that new shade of grey for the walls and a sprinkle of color on a new backsplash? It finally hits you - a case of fall fever. Much like when spring hits and we have the urge to purge, clean closets and plant flowers - this is the time of year visions of the nesting period that looms ahead can be all consuming. So how do you accomplish a little refresh instead of an entire “redo” when it comes to the kitchen or bath? Sink or Swim Replacing the existing kitchen sink is a fairly simple undertaking and with some of the newer models on the market it does not require much extra time or effort. Switching from a self-rimming or under counter model to an apron front or farmhouse style will give the space a new look and demand attention. Many top selling lines allow for the apron sink to fit directly on top of the existing cabinetry (while taking into account the removal of the false drawer if you have one). The result is a spacious basin that serves both function and fashion. Staying a ‘door’ able If keeping a lid on the budget is of utmost importance but the itch for new cabinetry is one you cannot shake then perhaps refreshing the doors and drawers with a fresh coat of paint or finish might do the trick. Swapping out dated hardware for more modern pulls and knobs adds to the “quick fix” appeal. The end result is rewarding not only because it is cost effective but it also achieves the new-look goal with minimal effort. A new trend that is also gaining popularity www.currentinwestfield.com
is that of re-facing the actual cabinets themselves through a professional kitchen and bath remodeling specialist. This is appealing to those homeowners who are in the process of exploring an upcoming remodel project anyway but who may be faced with escalating costs and hopes of saving the existing materials. David Decker is president of the Affordable Companies, which include Affordable Kitchens and Bathrooms and now Affordable Custom Flooring.

INSIDE & OUT
Indoors
Building the finest outdoor oasis Commentary by Randy Sorrell
Phased projects continue to drive the home improvement market and are a smart way to gradually improve your active lifestyle and surroundings. This very cool grill station is daring, custom and fits appropriately into the new screened porch. The generous living space blends seamlessly into the Moffitt Farms custom home. The desire for modern lines and a clean, maintenance free, abbreviated footprint led us to Azek decking as the non-traditional face of the grill station. Azek offers a “plug” system that hides ordinary screw heads and prompts a very finished look. Tile matching the home’s interior was sourced for the counter with tight joints to ease in cleaning. GRILL. FRIDGE. TRASH. Mr. Homeowner did a considerable amount of online research before selecting the perfect stainless steel components. The grill has enough BTU’s to sear a steak in seconds or fuel NASA’s next excursion to Mars. Stainless steel is very compelling in grill stations and drives an expected level of excitement to entertaining. The 36” wide doors offer a bit of storage and access to the interior grill elements. Remember the desperate dorm refrigerator of years ago? Updated, cost friendly versions are cleverly finished, easy to remove for winter

storage and house a boatload of goodies. Any volume of entertaining produces a fair amount of recyclables that needs disposed of. The trash receptacle insert handles this issue nicely and is an appreciated addition. Angie’s southwest decorating flair was a huge success and the entire project benefited from a diverse range of influences that married well together. The Carmel east-siders are thrilled with the porch / deck / grill station and have com-
missioned phase 2 of the project featuring an arched clay paver patio, shade producing pergola, natural boulder fire pit and tasteful landscape. Installing now. Outdoor living at it’s finest!
