Take a ride to the pumpkin patch

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com You could drive down the block to the local supermarket and pick out a pumpkin from a large bin, or you could board the train at Noblesville’s Forest Park and ride historic passenger cars through Hamilton County’s fall countryside, see farm animals and pick your own pumpkin from a local farm field.

The Indiana Transportation Museum’s “Pumpkin Train” is partnering with Beck’s Hybrids and the Hamilton Heights High School FFA chapter to create this unique experience.

ITM volunteer Ralph Bell said this is the fifth year the museum has partnered with the FFA for the event.

“We look for relationships anywhere we can find them,” he said.

In addition to selling pumpkins, the FFA students provide a small hay bale maze for the littlest children and games of skill for the older ones. Often a brief hayride travels around the patch and older farm equipment is on display.

Lunch items are available in the tent. Only your pumpkin and food items have costs – everything else is free. The FFA students can only accept cash at the pumpkin patch.

“People seem to be enjoying the activities up there,” Bell said.

Bell said travel time between the museum in Noblesville’s Forest Park and the pumpkin patch

O C TO B E R Hayride at the pumpkin patch (Photos provided by the Indiana Transportation Museum)

is approximately 20 minutes each way. Visitors will remain at the patch for about one hour before the return trip to Forest Park.

“Total length of the trip will be about 1 hour and 40 minutes,” Bell said.

The Pumpkin Train runs 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Saturday and 11:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m.

Sunday. Roundtrip cost is $12 for adults, $8 for children ages 2-12 and no charge for children under the age of 2 riding on the lap of a paying passenger.

Interested in riding the train? Bell advises the public to make a reservation by calling the ITM office Monday to Wednesday. Tickets can also be ordered online; however, a $2 surcharge is added according to Bell. Whatever open seats remain will be open to the public on the weekends.

Prevail receives funding for 2013 project editorial@youarecurrent.com

Prevail, Inc. of Noblesville has received funding through a grant from the Office for Victims of Crime, within the U.S. Department of Justice, to promote community awareness of crime victims’ rights and services during 2013 National Crime Victims’ Rights Week.

The week of April 21–27, 2013, is National Crime Victims’ Rights Week. This annual observance, first designated by President Ronald Reagan in 1981, seeks to increase general public awareness of, and knowledge about the wide range of rights and services available to people who have been victimized by crime. The theme for 2013 National Crime Victims’ Rights Week is “New Challenges. New Solutions.”

Prevail was one of the 77 projects recommended by the National Association of VOCA Assistance Administrators and selected for funding by OVC for 2013 from the 169 applications that were submitted nationwide.

OVC Acting Director Joye Frost said the community awareness project helps generate widespread public awareness of crime victims’ rights and needs and the importance of engaging all Americans in victim assistance efforts.

“Recent studies show that too many crime victims and survivors do not avail themselves of the many services in our communities that can help them through very devastating experiences,” she said.

Hamilton County’s community awareness project will be a Criminal Justice “Odyssey” Open House Learning Activity held on April 25, 2013. The open house will be a collaboration with Alternatives, Inc. (an emergency domestic violence shelter located in Madison County) and many other agencies in Hamilton County that assist victims of crime. The event will focus on taking community members through each step of the experiences a victim would encounter when affected by a crime.

For additional information about 2013 National Crime Victims’ Rights Week activities or about victims’ rights and services in Hamilton County, contact Natasha Robinson at 773-6942 or visit www.prevailinc.com. For information about national efforts to promote 2013 National Crime Victims’ Rights Week, visit www.ovc.gov.

Celebrate National Disability Employment Awareness Month with Janus – The U.S. Dept. of Labor has designated October as National Disability Employment Awareness Month. The 2012 theme is “A Strong Workforce is an Inclusive Workforce: What Can You Do?” This campaign hopes to raise awareness about disability employment issues and celebrate the many achievements of American workers living with disabilities. Janus Developmental Services provides individuals with disabilities the opportunity to participate and contribute within the community. The Janus Community Employment program provides assistance and job placement to employers to help them meet their work force needs. In addition, employers may be eligible for Work Opportunity Tax Credits. The new Doorways Job Explorers Club is always interested in having opportunities during the day to visit and tour local businesses so that they can learn more about our various community workplaces. Please contact Chris Sorensen at (317) 773-8781 ext. 120 for more information about the Janus programs or if you can spare just 20 minutes for a Job Explorers Club visit.

Family, community create memorial garden at Monon Trail Elementary School for Jacob McConahay

Jacob McConahay was a second-grade student at Monon Trail Elementary School when his life was cut tragically short at the age of 7 from cancer on Aug. 31, 2011.

“He was an unbelievable kid who was full of compassion and love for others,” said Monon Trail Principal Mike Hall.

While Jake is no longer inside the classroom, his spirit lives on at 19400 Tomlinson Rd., Westfield, as his family and community recently completed The Garden, a memorial for the inspirational boy at the school.

“Jake was very close to all of the students in his Jake McConahay class,” said his mother, Tosha McConahay. “We hope this is used as part of their science labs or for reading – kids grow up with this.”

Hall said the family wanted to start a memorial garden on an open space behind the school where students could learn, play and hang out.

“He just enjoyed playing out there at recess.

He was a big fan of butterflies,” he said, adding the garden includes hummingbird feeders and butterfly bushes.

Last fall, the McConahays started the garden by installing a paver patio and large flower box.

The area was dedicated to Jake earlier this year.

“They were doing it all on their own time and money,” Hall said.

Hall and the McConahays worked together to secure donations from several local businesses including Wesley Landscaping, Brehob Nursery, Hittle Landscaping, Sodexo, Litchfield Landscaping and Salsbury Brothers Landscaping.

“That really got the ball rolling,” said Hall.

Opinion On plans, facts and a serious plea

Green Halloween It is our position that the ritual of trickor-treating on Halloween night is transforming. It seems evenings of canvassing the neighborhood for hours with the goal of filling pillowcases full of candy treasures is slowly coming to an end. These days, the First Lady’s Healthy Food Initiative coupled with a growing number of children with food allergies has jump-started a new healthy Halloween ritual known as Green Halloween. Organic agave sticks, dried veggie chips, grass chocolate and herbal tea bags are taking favor over milk chocolate, taffy, lollipops, and pixie sticks in the candy dishes of those who are concerned about healthy eating habits.

Once upon a time, the “toothbrush” house risked being the target of an old-fashioned toilet-papering or egg throwing. Now, the carrot house is considered the “cool” house. Somehow the vision of children spreading out their stashes of green goodies to trade a temporary tattoo for a granola bar doesn’t quite compare to the throw-back image of sugar-buzzed kids trading twenty pieces of bite-sized candy for a full-sized chocolate bar.

Whether the Green Halloween trend is a trick or a treat, one thing we can all agree on is the safety of our youngsters on Halloween night.

Terminal patience

Commentary by Terry Anker

Indianapolis needs its own airline. Certainly, the new airport is beautiful. It makes the travel experience better in almost every way.

But could we have spent the billion or so dollars needed to construct the new edifice to buy our own carrier replete with an abundance of direct flights? On a day when I didn’t need to leave the house before 4:30 a.m. to make an astonishingly early first leg of a flight to Boston, I might be more reasonable in my assessment of our local travel options. Certainly, those who are dedicated to such matters work hard to give us as much choice as possible and make Indy an attractive alternative to airlines both major and minor. Yet sitting in a filthy and over-used hub waiting for yet again another connection, one is justified in expressing frustration. With each point on the map, the chance of lost luggage, missed connection and weather delay increases. But, we can take stock that our mileage reward miles rack-up faster when our flight home from DC stops

off in Cleveland.

I might appreciate the found time to work on a column, clean-up e-mail or explore the newsstand; but in a crowded and odiferous terminal, one’s mind wanders. It might be noted that in the dizzying array of magazines for sale, two tout covers featuring the Obamas with none of the Romneys (incidentally, USA Today’s online version’s headline page uses the name 11 times versus two for his challenger).

It becomes apparent that food knows few boundaries regarding whether pizza, popcorn or Italian beef sandwiches are a good choice at 6 a.m. But mostly, I note the long lines of folks already in transit awaiting attention from the beleaguered barista. I am holding out for lobster in the Boston hub – if I ever get there!

"Pop music is the mass medium for conditioning the way people think" - Graham Nash

Current in Westfield

We caught up with one of our friends, one among the ink-stained set, from New York. He had, to us, an interesting take that you and we probably never will see in the liberal, mainstream media. Listen up: “President Barack Obama said (last Tuesday night) that former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney's five-point plan really is a ‘one-point plan,’ and that Romney's economic plan was ‘a sketchy deal’ that Americans should reject. That was actually quite brilliant of the president, because this is what people do: go on the attack, when they have no freaking plan themselves. The next time I hear about Obama's agenda for the next four years will be the first time. Criticize Romney's plan all you want, but at least he has a plan. It's very clear now that the president simply is hoping to ride the wave of loyal liberals, and his charisma, into an election victory Nov. 6 with no clear plan whatsoever.”

Some will dismiss this as a far-right rant. What’s your call? Tell us at info@youarecurrent.com. …

We believe the curtains will come down on the respective campaigns just as they should not – and that’s with each candidate blatantly pandering to groups he covets. We’re begging for pure facts and detail here, and we don’t believe we’re getting that from these candidates. … Let us state it once more with feeling: We need a serious, independent third party in the worst way. … We find it off-putting that Sen. Richard Lugar refuses to campaign for U.S. Senate candidate Richard Mourdock, given that Lugar was enriched professionally and financially during his long and – many would say – distinguished career. With the control of the Senate so important to the Republican party, how could Lugar turn his back on the party? It just reinforces that we did the right thing in voting against him in the primary.

Proposed sale deserves a closer look Commentary by Keith L. Beall

I recently attended the first public meeting hosted by Westfield Mayor Andy Cook and a Citizens Energy representative who spoke about the reasons and value arising from the recently announced sale of the Westfield Water and Sewer Utility to Citizens Energy. Cook openly and sincerely spoke about the many benefits from the tentative agreement to sell the city’s largest asset – for a lofty $91 million.

That certainly is an impressive sum, including a $16 million premium, for a growing city that has several worthy uses for those sale proceeds.

Though there have been interesting comparisons to the governor’s successful 2006 sale of the Indiana toll road, unlike toll road situation Westfield residents and businesses don’t have the option of choosing a “different route” to get their services.

I submit a more apt analogy: it is like selling your house (at a premium) to a landlord who promises not to raise your rent above your current mortgage payment for a few years. After that few years is up, the landlord will naturally review what rent he is receiving, the original price (including the premium) paid, along with any repairs and improvements that were required or will be required, and then adding in a new component – what a fair profit should be – and then reset the rent you have to pay.

What do you think will happen to your rent in

that scenario?

The mayor and Citizens point to the IURC and the Consumer Counselor’s Office as the buffer to protect Westfield ratepayers. Having been personally involved in or presiding over hundreds of IURC rate cases over my 20+ years of utility practice, I can assure you that the regulatory process does work because it is thorough – but it also can be expensive and overwhelming for individual customers. Also, it is worth noting that the rate proceeding and additional expense items like the increased property tax payments Citizens will be obliged to pay the city, as well as the reasonable return on its investment (i.e. profit) are all legitimate revenue requirements that go into the ratemaking formula that both the IURC and OUCC are duty bound to consider when setting just and reasonable new rates for the utility.

Delving further into the details now – before the deal is closed, is essential before the citizens of Westfield are potentially forced in to a position where the burden of taking up the issue becomes a complex or costly IURC regulatory fight or one that already may be lost because of the unique rate making rules, laws, or concepts involved.

Trouble with toddlers

Commentary by Danielle Wilson Just as I was wondering what to write about this week, Fate snickered and sent me a 2-year old. Now I’m trying to figure out how I can possibly cram all of this toddler fodder into one column. Here’s my best shot.

When my brother-in-law and his wife had their third baby during the weekend, my husband and I offered to watch their older girls while they were at the hospital. Their kindergartner I can handle, but the shorter one, hereafter referred to as the LydieMonster (LM), apparently not so much.

Our first evening together went quite well actually. The LM was so tired from being in a strange house with strange people that she fell asleep almost immediately. And because I don’t own bottles anymore (yay!) and the LM wouldn’t drink from a cup, she was too dehydrated to wet her diaper during the night and slept straight through (double yay!). Doo and I congratulated ourselves on our clearly still well-honed parenting skills and happily sent our nieces back to their father.

That afternoon brought another babysitting request. Doo had plans to hang with another brother, so it was just me with my precious little relatives. To kill time, I got crafty and broke out the paint. Sweet mercy, two seconds, two seconds I turned my back and suddenly the LM was covered in purple and brown water color.

No worries, I told myself, it’s washable, so I

cleaned her up and sent her off while I Cloroxed the previously white counter. Moments later a crash had me sprinting to the office, where I found the LM surrounded by trash and chewing something in utter delight. Kleenex? A discarded apple core? Nope, it was gum, hopefully Orbitz but quite possibly Nicorette. Just to be sure, I watched her like a hawk for the rest of the evening and fortunately observed no unusual agitation or bowel movements.

A third visit was equally exciting. After tracking the LM down in an upstairs bathroom where she had clambered onto the sink and chugged an ounce of Soft Soap, Doo decided coloring would be a safe bet. I concurred. Non-toxic crayons, paper, what could go wrong? But when I peered into the kitchen after an unusually quiet couple of minutes, I saw the LM drooling a tar-like substance.

Huh? She had bitten the tip off a stray marker and was drinking the black ink as it spilled forth in all its Crayola glory. Lovely, just lovely.

So we did what any self-respecting aunt or uncle would do. Snapped a photo, emailed it to the trusting parents, and called it a day.

Then we thanked baby Jesus that we don’t have 2-year-olds anymore. Peace out.

Doctoring my questionnaire Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

Whenever I visit my doctor’s office, I have to fill out one form or another. Most of the time, the staff simply wants to confirm that my insurance hasn’t changed, which I think is just medical jargon for “Has your coverage been dropped?” Before my last appointment, they asked me about my medications and about any side effects I am experiencing. I never have any side effects, but I usually write down headaches, nausea, vomiting, hallucinations, decreased libido and heightened impulsivity. That way they’ll think I’m really taking all my pills.

Here is another question I had to answer: What is your nickname? I’d never been asked about this before and I really don’t have a nickname, but they hate it when you leave a blank space so I wrote down “Sparky.” I knew if somehow that ended up on my vial of blood, it would cause a lot of chatter at the lipid lab.

Next, the form wanted me to list any new drugs I’m taking. And then it asked “What is the frequency?” I had my gout medicine with me, so I held it up to my ear, but I couldn’t hear a thing.

There were some questions about my family medical history, requesting info on relatives who had died and their causes of death, including all four of my grandparents. My maternal grandmother died suddenly at 94, her demise 14 | October 23, 2012

the result of large whiskey sours before breakfast and two packs of Camels a day. This should be a lesson to you. I’m just not sure what the lesson is.

The next line inquired about the deaths of my aunts and uncles. We were never a close-knit family, but I thought my brother who still lives in New York might remember some of the details. “Hello, Peter, it’s Dick.”

“Dick who?”

“Very funny. I have a question about Uncle Sid’s death.”

“Oh, how sad. I’m sorry to hear that. When did he die?”

“1985.”

This wasn’t getting me anywhere, so I simply scribbled in something to fill up the space—a cause of death that wouldn’t raise any red flags.

It was likely that no one ever looked at those answers, anyway. But apparently, I’m now quite the topic of conversation in the medical records department. I was told that of all the 2,000 patients in this internal medicine practice, I’m the only one whose aunts and uncles were all run over by a bus.

Carmel native returns home for her first trip to the basement

By Patricia Rettig • editorial@youarecurrent.com Cathedral High School graduate Hillary Smith has enjoyed many roles at Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre. She’s flown with Peter Pan, sang about her hard knock life with Annie and followed the white rabbit down the hole to Wonderland.

In the four years since she’s stepped onto its stage, she’s earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at Florida State University and moved to New York City.

“I can’t express how great it is to be back home in Indianapolis and back home at Beef & Boards,” said Smith. “Beef & Boards will always feel like a second home to me. I have learned so much from fellow actors, directors, crew members and staff members while performing here.”

Now she’s returned to Indiana, for what might be considered the unenviable task of stepping into an iconic series at Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre: Church Basement Ladies. On stage now through Nov. 25 is the third show in the musical comedy series about women who work in the basement of a Lutheran church in Minnesota: Away in the Basement.

Smith plays the youngest character: Beverly Signe Engelson, a 15-yearold preparing to be confirmed.

She is the only newcomer to the cast, which features the return of Karen Pappas as the hilarious Mavis Gilmerson, Licia Watson as the matriarch Vivian Snustad, Katherine Proctor as Beverly’s mother, Karin Engelson, and Eddie Curry as Pastor E.L. Gunderson.

“I was a little nervous coming into the process because Eddie, Karen, Katie and Licia have all been part of this show before and I was the only new member,” said Smith. “However they welcomed me with open arms, along with our director, Curt Wollan.”

“Playing Beverly is so much fun,” she added. “My mom and dad sat in on our final dress rehearsal and I could hear them laughing out loud in some of my character’s sassier moments. It must mean that Beverly and ’15-year-old’ Hillary aren’t as different as I might have thought! I love playing this character. She has so much to discover about herself and some of those ‘growing up’ discoveries or moments happen in the show for her.” www.currentinwestfield.com

Beverly Engelson (Hillary Smith), right, asks Vivian Snustad (Licia Watson) why she won’t attend a Christmas dinner while her mother, Karin (Katherine Proctor), center, looks on in Away in the Basement, A Church Basement Ladies Christmas.

As if nine performances a week weren’t enough, Hillary is also taking the lead role in Cinderella, the fall installment of Beef & Boards’ Pyramid Players’ Live Theatre for Kids series, now on stage Fridays and Saturdays through Nov. 17. The one-hour performances are designed to introduce young children to live theatre.

“The kid shows at Beef & Boards are such a cool experience,” said Smith. “There is nothing like performing to an audience of children and getting to see them and their big smiles afterward. They are living the story in the audience right along with us actors on stage.”

“I love when a parent tells me that the show they just saw was that child’s first,” she added. “I will be part of a memory they will have the rest of their life.”

For reservations to either show, call the Beef & Boards Box Office at 872-9664. Box office hours are 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday, and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays. For more information, including show schedule, visit www.beefandboards.com.

A Halloween theme Over the years I’ve been asked to judge tailgate contests at stadiums of huge BCS colleges all the way down in size to local prep schools.

Every single contest had a central theme thought up by its planners. People were judged, on a small part, as to their adherence to a central idea. It was fun to see all the different ways people followed the overall contest theme.

Halloween black/orange napkins and tablecloths are available from all sorts of outlets as are real pumpkins. These pumpkins can be carved with your team logo or Letter. Orange Jello-shots are easy to make from the recipe is on my website. Corn chips are available in orange and black colors and all your cream based dips can be dyed with orange or black food coloring. Decorate with a dummy of the opponent’s mascot hung by a noose and a witch’s hat and broom on display.

How about setting up a cardboard RIP, gray, tombstone for your opponents? The important thing is to change things up and have fun.

Roll the dough and trim it to fit. Brush with egg whites and place it into buttered 9/13 dish/pan and chill in the fridge until ready to bake. Mix the pumpkin, eggs brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg with a whisk until smooth. Gradually stir in evaporated milk until blended. Now pour the mixture over the crust in the baking pan and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and let it stand for at least 5 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the brown sugar and flour in a bowl. Now, add the butter and mix with a fork or your fingers until crumbly. Add the walnuts and stir to blend. Sprinkle this mixture over the pumpkin bars and return the bars to the oven for 15 more minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a rack before cutting into bars. This will make 24 small bars.

Wellness Determining your breast cancer risk HEALTH

Commentary by Patricia Kennedy, MD October means lots of pink ribbon sightings in observance of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. For all women, breast cancer risks increases with age. That’s why it’s important to schedule annual mammograms beginning at age 40 – earlier if you have a family history of the disease. Yearly mammograms are one of the best ways to identify breast cancer in the earliest stages when it’s most treatable and often curable.

Women frequently ask the difference between “screening” and “diagnostic” mammograms. A “screening” mammogram is scheduled when a woman is experiencing no problems or concerns with her breasts. “Diagnostic” mammograms are completed when a woman has noticed a lump or change in the breast. If you suspect a problem, contact your primary care doctor or gynecologist first before scheduling an appointment with a breast imaging center. Your doctor will contact the center to order a diagnostic mammogram. Radiologists evaluate diagnostic mammograms differently by focusing more specifically on the area of the breast in question.

Both screening and diagnostic mammograms are thorough exams – they are just evaluated in different ways.

Understanding your personal risk for breast cancer becomes increasingly important as you Germs – As a parent, you may be tempted to sanitize everything your child touches, but research shows this may not be the best solution. Exposing infants to some germs may prove helpful, offering greater protection from illnesses such as allergies and asthma later on in life.

Exactly what germs have not yet been determined. – webmd.com Small action, big impact – You know that sleep is important for your child's success, but adjusting bed time by just a half hour can produce dramatic effects, a study says. Just twenty-seven more minutes of rest resulted in less impulsive and less distracted children.

On the contrary, one hour less had opposite effects on behavior and mood. – children.webmd.com Get some sleep – You have heard it before - get a good night's rest, but a recent Canadian research study associates lack of quality sleep in adolescents with poor health. Those with poor sleep quality were much more likely to experience high cholesterol and blood pressure and be overweight.

get older. A new Breast Cancer Risk Screening program at Indiana University Health North Hospital helps women determine their breast cancer risks. The computer-based screening program is easy, takes less than five minutes and is available free of charge to any woman who has a screening mammogram at IU Health North Hospital. To complete the screening, women answer a few basic questions about their breasts and reproductive health, including family history, age at first menstrual period, whether they have delivered children (if so, at what age) and any history of breast procedures, such as breast biopsy.

Through this initial screening, women learn if they are at average risk or potentially increased risk of developing breast cancer. Those women found to be at increased risk will be contacted by a nurse practitioner to schedule a full risk assessment. Recommendations for women with increased risks may include genetic testing, a breast MRI or consultation with breast care specialists to determine the best course of action.

She is a guest columnist located at Breast Care at IU Health North Hospital, 11725 N. Illinois St., Ste. 545, in Carmel. She can be reached by calling the office at 317.688.5155.

Protecting your home when you are away Commentary by Jamie Ianigro Question from Bryan H. from Noblesville: My parents go to Florida after the Thanksgiving holiday and their house pretty much sits empty until spring when they come back. Is their house okay insurance wise?  Response from Jamie Ianigro: Congratulations to them and I hope you get a chance to go visit them to escape the Indiana winter. A couple of factors come in to play when we talk about unoccupied homes and insurance. Notice I didn’t say vacant homes. Let’s start with the difference between vacant and unoccupied.

Figuring out the difference between a vacant home and an unoccupied home is as easy as walking in the front door. Unoccupied homes might be a little chilly or a little warm, but people are obviously still living there. It will look like someone could have just left or might be home shortly. A vacant home is going to be pretty much empty and it will be obvious that people are not living there. The fridge will be empty, most of the furniture will be gone, etc.

Insurance carriers will not insure an unoccupied home and a vacant home at the same price or coverage levels. A vacant dwelling requires a special policy and is much more costly than The cost of education - Thanks to rising tuition and a tough job market, college seniors graduated with an average of nearly $27,000 in student loan debt last year. Two-thirds of the class of 2011 held student loans upon graduation, and the average borrower owed $26,600, according to a report from the Institute for College Access & Success' Project on Student Debt.

That's up 5 percent from 2010 and is the highest level of debt in the seven years the report has been published.

a common homeowner’s policy. Your independent insurance agent can help you find a vacant home policy or elaborate further if you think your home might be vacant.

Each insurance carrier is different, but you can start to lose coverages if your home is unoccupied for a certain period of time. The big two that usually drop off would be coverage for vandalism and coverage for losses caused by a plumbing failure like freezing pipes. These claims can both be costly, so it is very important to know and understand your policy provisions if you’re a snow bird. Coming back from a winter vacation to a ruined house can be made a lot worse by finding out your insurance carrier is denying all or major parts of your claim.

The important takeaway here is to make sure you understand your insurance policy before you fly south for the winter. Your independent insurance agent will be glad to go over it with you and clear up any confusion you may have.

The power of family patterns Commentary by Kristen Boice Family patterns, both healthy and unhealthy, have a legacy and power for future generations. We are grateful for healthy patterns. The unhealthy patterns tend to be more difficult to confront. And, these can teach us the most when we are open to exploring them.

How often do we stop and examine what we might be passing down to our children or those around us? Often, we are just doing what we know. It’s important to explore why we think, feel and act the way we do. Sometimes we are on auto-pilot and not awake to our daily actions and how they show up.

Taking time to explore your unhealthy patterns will help stop the multi-generational transmission of issues. It is not about getting stuck or blaming our past. It’s about creating insight, becoming aware of what we want to do differently and then taking action to change it.

Below are a few key areas to begin your journey of making a lasting change.

1. Explore the role of guilt and shame.

Do you struggle with guilt or feeling bad?

Do you use guilt to “get” your children to do what you want them to do? Was guilt or shame used in your family system as a form of control or manipulation?

Write out how you use shame and guilt with others and yourself. Let go of the “should’s” and start accepting yourself for who you are. We are human beings who are imperfect. The key is to grow and learn from our choices so we are more joyful, happy and at peace.

2. Look at boundaries. What were the Facts on tap – Consider the fact that if a person’s body water drops by 2 percent headaches, fatigue and dizziness occur. In 2009, Americans doled out $10.6 billion on bottled water. Now, consider that when reaching for a bottle or for the tap. – miamiherald.com

boundaries in your family growing up?

Were they rigid or did you not have any rules? We teach other people how to treat us. Did you learn to set healthy boundaries with others? Do you set them with your children? Write out what your boundaries are and start communicating what you will and won’t tolerate in a relationship.

3. Understand your feelings. Were you able to express your feelings or did you have to hold them in? Are you uncomfortable when others express how they feel? Some people neglect their own feelings and needs by taking care of others, even when others aren’t asking for it. This may lead to feeling resentment and neglected. You are not responsible for fixing or changing your whole family. You are responsible for you, your choices and making changes This is some of the most powerful and transformative work you can do. Be patient with yourself. It takes courage and a willingness to be accountable. It takes one person to change the pattern. So, start with you!

Travel/Et Cetera

Steeple chase: Obelisks objects of the eternal Commentary by Don Knebel Among the many delights of a trip to Egypt are visits to its many well-preserved temples, including the one in Luxor typically seen at night. But no matter how well preserved, the temples are all missing at least one of the matched pair of obelisks, some more than 100 feet tall, which once flanked their entrances.

The missing obelisks were not lost – they are in Europe, some standing in front of famous churches. And while the obelisks are missing from Egypt, their spiritual descendants are in front of places of worship around the world.

For ancient Egyptians, the gently obelisks’ sloping sides and gold-plated crowning pyramids probably symbolized the paths of sun rays streaming toward earth, representing the connections between the sun god and the temple. To reflect the eternal nature of those connections, Egyptians carved their obelisks from a single piece of granite, weighing hundreds of tons.

The most suitable quarry was along the Nile River in Aswan. Aswan visitors can still see the famous “unfinished obelisk,” abandoned thousands of years ago when a crack was discovered in the granite, making it useless for its intended purpose.

When Romans conquered Egypt in the first century B.C., they were so enamored of the obelisks that they pulled them down from the temples and sent them to Rome on specially

Luxor Temple at night. (Photo by Don Knebel) designed ships. Today, there are more Egyptian obelisks in Rome than in Egypt. One is now in front of St. Peter’s Basilica, a cross now extending from its apex. The largest one is in front of St. John Lateran’s Basilica, the seat of the Pope.

Many of today’s churches, mosques and Hindu temples have tall, slender structures near their entrances, often topped with pyramids, pointing toward the heavens. These steeples,

minarets and towers continue to reflect the Egyptian idea of an eternal connection with the divine.

Tragic – Animals, such as chickens, are often used for therapy. A boy with autism in Florida, J.J. Hart, worked with four chickens and his parents say the animals helped him form sounds they couldn’t get him to make on their own. The chickens were found decapitated in their coop. While bite marks were found on the animals, the family suspects the work of a human. The family was also fighting with law enforcement officials over a fine related to the chickens. – pawnation.com

How to stop a dog fight Commentary by John Mikesell

A dog fight that goes beyond a brief scuffle and doesn’t resolve quickly is frightening to behold. In fact it’s one of the behavior scenarios most likely to result in significant injury to humans, not to mention the dogs. The first, most important thing to remember is stay safe. After that, here are a few things to do to try to end the conflict as quickly as possible, with minimal bloodshed.

Spray me a river. Blast the dogs with water from a nearby hose, assuming a nearby hose with a powerful enough spray. An easily portable aversive, such as lemon juice in a spray bottle, can be an effective alternative. In a pinch, even a fire extinguisher makes a handy and effective fight stopping tool.

Sound strategies. Depending on the intensity of the fight, a loud yell might put it to rest. Try dropping one or several metal pans on

the floor. A marine air horn can be effective at breaking up a fight. Warning, they are loud.

Keep your hands out of the danger zone by using a physical object to break up the fight. You have to plan in advance. This would be a good idea if you have two dogs that have shown a propensity to get into fights with each other. Attach two handles to a small piece of plywood. When the fight happens, lower the board between the sparring dogs. The board will push them apart.

I have been lucky and never had to break up a dog fight. I think that the biggest danger of a fight that most of us will encounter would be when walking our dogs. Carrying a hose just won’t work so a small air horn device, like the ones that some folks have a sporting events, is probably the best choice if one is worried about a fight.

John Mikesell, owner of Izzy’s Place, A dog Bakery in Carmel, can be reached at john.mikesell@att.net.

Ouch – It is a common situation for pet owners: An energetic and enthusiastic pet sees the dog across the street, or the mailman, and responds by jumping up on the couch in front of the window and scratching the curtains and wall. Place a clear plastic floor mat, bumpy side up, on the couch.

Once the pet realizes that he doesn't like the couch because it is now uncomfortable, he will then stop his destructive visits. goodhousekeeping. com

Love ‘em – We all love to eat, and this does not exclude our furry counterparts. Sometimes, however, one notices that his dog or cat has been eating excessively and has a seemingly insatiable appetite. Overeating is sometimes caused by boredom or low-grade stress. With lots of running, jumping and cuddling, your pet should be back on track and perfectly healthy. -goodhousekeeping.com Alzheimer’s in man’s best friend – It is possible for your pooch to be afflicted by a disorder similar to Alzheimer’s disease, called canine cognitive dysfunction. Once a dog hits about sevenyears-old, histolic brain lesions can form, impacting the pup’s orientation, sleep and house-training skills.

Cats clawing curtains – Cats love to climb about and may even defy logic by avoiding special furniture made just for that and go straight for the curtains. If your cat won’t stay away from the curtains, take them down, temporarily install a cat window seat and then remove it after a couple weeks, saving your curtains from claws. –miamiherald.com Walking the cat – Some feline owners fancy taking their pet out for a neighborhood walk. To get a cat to put up with an outdoor walk, cajoling with treats and patience from the owner are necessary for success. –miamiherald.com

Design

The interior style epicenter Commentary by Vicky Earley Greetings from High Point, N.C., home of the largest home furnishings market in the world.

For six days, this town hosts more than 80,000 as they preview the trends for the next six months of the home interior industry. We have more than 2,000 exhibitors to visit and 10.5 million square feet to cover in 180 buildings, so comfortable shoes are critical!

I would love to report a specific color trend to look forward to but that is just too simple.

Color, itself, appears to be the trend! Cleaner and more vibrant, the hues combined in room settings rival a 64 color box of crayons.

Red paired with teal, plum and gray, tangerine and citron, goldenrod and mink, and persimmon and sapphire are some of the most repeated combinations. Leather in saturated colors is the punctuation to room vignettes.

Large scale patterns are paired with smaller geometrics on chairs. Chevron patterns are still dizzyingly popular.

Sofas are solid colors complete with a mélange of pillow patterns to tie the colors back to the accents in the chair.

Details make formerly average pieces stand out with distinct personality. Linens are trimmed with velvet, nail heads are used in waves, boxes and diamonds are used to dress the furnishings.

Linen is still a contender as a fabric choice, but the color choices far exceed the natural ones of last year.

Quality, in spite of pricing, outshines the cheaper stepsister pieces. When lined up with

precision, you know that the craftsmen is versed in how to do it right.

Mirrored furniture has taken a back seat to consoles and cabinets upholstered in textiles.

Accent pieces eschew the tradition of wood stain in favor of vibrant paint colors. Distressed pieces remain popular as do high gloss furnishings.

Stain resistant outdoor fabrics used as indoor upholstery textile are a growing trend in response to a demand for livability. Yes, Virginia, it is now possible to have a white sofa and not worry about stains.

With two days of Mart down, and two more to go, we will most certainly see more creative ideas to share next week.

Take advantage of beautiful fall colors Commentary by Randy Sorrell

Understandably, most of us love the impressive endless summer hydrangea for its strong continual flower statement. Yet, the unobtrusive glowing embers hydrangea is my go-to variety because of its warm plum / red tones that begin showing themselves in mid-summer on its large leaf structure. Flowering is almost a bonus for this performer. Same goes with the oak leaf hydrangea.

Autumn is a second spring, where every leaf is flower. Could your outdoor living space use an inspiring dose of color?

Fall – Want to keep those flowers alive in frost season but don’t trust the weatherman? Consider daytime temperature (likely no frost if over 75 degrees), wind (a light breeze overnight usually prevents frost) and garden situation (plots on slopes or high ground are more immune, as cold air pools in low areas). - www.almanac.com

The popularity of “hardscapes” has prompted many in our industry to marginalize the value of stunning landscapes. Unfortunately, most consumers have been happy to follow that fixation on patios, decks, fire features and everything else that is not soft … like landscapes. That’s too bad. Expect a return of enthusiastic landscaping as we wake up.

Think about it, a beautiful deck or patio stands little chance of being a compelling place to hang out with your loved ones or a personal respite without smartly designed plantings to bring it to life and soften the edges. Anything flowering, that motions with a breeze, has compelling fragrance or a distinct texture has the power to impact our mood and direct how an evening of entertaining unfolds.

Fall favorites Well planned landscapes are especially showy in the fall when leaves are popping with color, almost like a final hurrah before winter sets in, screaming “Look at me!” And look we do. Fall color is often a forgotten function in landscape design, but its value is stunning.

Some of the most brilliant fall colors are housed on the ornamental serviceberry tree.

Perhaps that’s why there are five in my back yard on fire with the brilliance of fall. Green leafed Japanese maples are impressive too with a tinge of bright orange showing through.

Huh? – Looking for something, um, unique to hang on your walls? New Yorkers are getting a taste for taxidermy, with dealers seeing a surge in demand for stuffed animals and many people taking taxidermy classes. Some experts say taxidermy brings a "bubble of nature" into people's homes, offering relief from computers, mobile gadgets and other trappings of modernity. "People have really strong reactions to it – it really creeps some people out. But others are fascinated," antiques dealer Mike Zohn says. - TheAtlantic.com

Hardwood flooring

IntroducingThe All-New 2013

Commentary by David Decker

For a versatile and natural look that never goes out of style, many homeowners choose to install hardwood flooring. Unlike other flooring trends that come and go, hardwood flooring has remained in style for over 200 years with no signs that tastes will change anytime soon. Today, homeowners have more hardwood options to choose from than ever before. With designs ranging from rustic to retro to contemporary, there is a style of hardwood floor to fit any home.

The number of designs available on the market can overwhelm some shoppers. If you are looking for new hardwood flooring, keep the following trends and developments in mind next time you are out browsing.

Wide Wood Flooring: Many homeowners are choosing flooring designed with wider planks.

The width of the plank used to be related to the age and maturity of the tree it was crafted from.

Many years ago, mature lumber was much easier to come by. But as the lumber supply ran out or became protected, wide planks gradually became rare. This is why modern hardwood has always been made from narrow planks. But thanks to new manufacturing techniques, wide plank flooring has been made available once again. Wider boards give the illusion that the room is larger, which is why many homeowners select the style. And they can give a room a hint of traditional elegance that echoes antique hardwood floor.

Distressed Wood Flooring: Since the late 1990’s, there’s been a surge in popularity of distressed wood flooring. Planks featuring scrapes, nail holes or stains can create an artsy, edgy look that many niche markets love.

Exotic Wood Flooring: Homebuyers are no longer limited to domestic species of wood. Today, you can find hardwood floors made from

SMALL BUSINESS

SATURDAY NOV 24, 2012

®

LEXUS ES SErIES trees from all over the world. Most exotic woods are crafted from wood harvested from tropical forests. For this reason, some homeowners choose to purchase sustainable woods that have been engineered and designed to mimic exotic woods.

Sustainability: Green options for flooring are being developed with greater frequency than ever before. Styles crafted from bamboo or cork cut down the flooring’s impact on the environment.

Color: Hardwood floor is available in a spectrum of colors (and not just various shades of brown).

Consider installing black, white, red or even grey flooring. Or you can also purchase unfinished wood that can be stained with any color, opening up all sorts of design possibilities.

An excellent new line to consider is DuChateau Floors. Developed in Holland, these vintage hardwood floors are designed to reflect Old World styles using modern technologies. If you’re looking to add an antique feel to a room, consider one of DuChateau’s designs.

Before attempting to select a style of hardwood floor, it’s important to first decide on how you’d like the room to look and feel. The right hardwood style can subtly tie all the other elements of your room décor together. Select carefully; a great hardwood floor can last a lifetime and beyond.
