Rule the Road coming to Boone County editorial@youarecurrent.com Your teen is finally in the driver’s seat! While getting a driver’s license is an important milestone, many parents are left wondering if their teen is really ready to take to the road. Research has shown motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for 15- to 20-year-olds. This year, nearly 4 million new teen drivers will be licensed in the U.S. Half of them will be involved in a crash before they turn 20. Safe driving skills are learned over time, and the more practice you get, the better driver you’ll become. Specifically targeted toward teens ages 15 to 18 who are about to, or have recently received their driver’s license, Rule the Road gives teens the unique opportunity to learn and practice skills they need to keep them safe behind the wheel.

New technology at Witham offers improved cancer diagnosis and treatment editorial@youarecurrent.com

Lyons

Witham Memorial Hospital will offer patients a powerful new diagnostic imaging system known as positron emission tomography/CT. This hybrid technology combines the strengths of two well-established imaging modalities in one imaging session to more accurately diagnose and locate cancers while increasing patient comfort. “Before PET/CT, physicians would overlay the results of a PET and CT scans performed separately to identify and locate tumors,” said Jason Scott, director of imaging/cardiac diagnostics/pulmonary/neurodiagnostics at Witham. “However, because a patient may not be positioned identically for both scans, the two images can be difficult to line up exactly, degrading the accuracy of the diagnostic information.” The combined PET/CT machine allows physicians to rapidly perform both scans in one session without having to move a patient, which means a physician can precisely overlay the metabolic data of the PET scan and the detailed anatomic data of the CT scan to pinpoint the location and stage of tumors. “Witham is proud to bring PET/CT technology to our community with the cooperation of Shared Medical Services. Together, we are now able to offer this advanced imaging technology locally, eliminating the need for patients to travel far distances to receive quality care,” said Dr. Raymond Ingham, CEO and president of Witham Health Services. Along with providing better imaging data, it notably increases patient comfort and convenience by reducing the number of scanning sessions a patient must undergo. It is also noninvasive, painless and takes only about 30 minutes. “The scanner is a one-two punch of technology that provides great sensitivity and can help us improve patient outcomes,” said Dr. Robert Liebross, radiation oncologist at the Cancer Institute at Witham. While PET/CT is primarily used in cancer treatment, it also

Plain talk

Definite difference in dogs Commentary By Ward Degler

There are dogs, and there are black labs. After babysitting our daughter’s dog, I’m convinced that beyond four legs and a tail, there are very few similarities. Cooper is a handsome young fellow, amiable and gets along well with our dog Brutie. Together, they quickly establish a routine of sniffing each other’s you know what, sizing each other up, launching an extended running jog around the backyard and then sleeping until it’s time to do the whole thing over again. The score was usually tied in that department. After that, however,

it was every dog for himself. Chasing sticks, for instance. Cooper will chase and bring back anything I throw for as long as I choose to throw it. And when I tire of the game, he plops down and eats the stick. I’m not kidding. Brutie, on the other hand, figures if I throw something away, I don’t want it back. While Brutie has a limited appetite, Cooper will eat anything. I threw out some dead plants. He thought they were delicious. Ditto a staggering assortment of plastic flower pots, plant trays, watering jugs and an aging Frisbee he found in the yard. He also eats dog food, of course, usually, in one huge gulp. And any unguarded people food likewise vanishes in a flash. That includes green beans and Danish pastry. Cooper has a bed, but he prefers the sofa. And when I am on it, he will sit and glare at me. Get up to visit the bathroom and he takes over. He considers it a constitutional right. Brutie has his own idiosyncrasies, of course, and we’ve long thought he probably came from Mars. Cooper, on the other hand, has just got to be from some other planet. Maybe Pluto.

Cover Story

Could a 3,000-seat hockey facility soon reside at U.S. 421 and 146th Street? By Derek Fisher • derek@youarecurrent.com There is increasing interest in the possibility of a hockey arena being constructed in Zionsville, and for now, the Town Council is open to learning more. On March 21, Boone County Economic Development Corp. Executive Director Dax Norton told the Council a feasibility study on such a project – and its $53,000 cost – needs to happen. “There’s a need for a hockey development facility,” Norton explained. “There’s a large hockey corridor in this area, and it’s one of the fastest-growing sports in the nation.” Norton Norton cited overcrowding and aging of two hockey facilities – the Carmel Ice Skadium and the Forum at Fishers – as reasons for a new venue. The Indiana State Fairgrounds’ Pepsi Coliseum, another youth hockey mecca, will close for two years this fall for renovations. At the close of Norton’s presentation, the Council approved a motion to table the issue until the May Council meeting. Private interests are behind the push for another rink, and while Norton did not elaborate in that regard, he did spell out the gist of the idea. “The plan was hatched in 2009 and has remained in an embryonic state,” he said. “Whitestown was initially the area of interest, in a $34 million plan, but it’s been scaled down. Noblesville, Carmel and Fishers are in the mix, and Lebanon is working on this right now.” Norton added the approximate estimate of such a project is

$10 million to $15 million, and it would be largely financed by private interests, with public dollars playing a small role. The project would likely be a 2,500- to 3,000-seat, multipurpose facility. It would not be a remedy for the temporary lack of a home for the Coliseum’s Indiana Ice, but a host for youth hockey leagues and other events, such as proms. That versatility is a must, said Mike Berger, general manager and hockey director of the Forum at Fishers. “A hockey-alone format is a huge mistake,” he said. “Hockey has a long off-season, and even the winter months are not 100 percent busy. Local rinks aren’t yet bursting at the seams. This is a small sport and adding (ice) sheets is a huge risk.” Ice and United States Hockey League CEO Paul Skjodt, who declined to comment on the project, took a different view. “We will need six sheets of ice during the next five years to keep up with the demand,” he said, while adding the closing of the Coliseum and the redevelopment of downtown Skjodt Indianapolis’ Pan-Am rinks are concerns. U.S. 421, particularly a 37-acre area near 146th Street, is penciled in as a location of interest should Zionsville land the project. “A feasibility analysis is in order for (U.S.) 421, but we don’t know if that’s where the facility would go,” Norton said. “Residents there may not want the additional traffic, and we don’t know what could be done with the road. A facility like this could pull people from around the Midwest, so you’d need to look at hotels as well.” “(There are) plans to upgrade the intersection of U.S. 421 and

“We all might think it’s a great idea to have something like this, but if it doesn’t make sense, it doesn’t make sense.”

-Council President Tim Haak

Hockey is gaining popularity, with USA Hockey – an organization with more than 500,000 members whose mission is to provide support and development of grassroots hockey – having seen a 143-percent increase in membership between 1990 and 2010. Indiana experienced a 152-percent increase in USA Hockey members during the same span. Ind. 32 in about three years,” said INDOT’s Will Wingfield. “Developments are occasionally asked to build driveway entrances and turn lanes that can accommodate anticipated traffic volumes.” Norton is confident the $53,000 cost of the study the Council will decide on in May could be subsidized, and not pulled exclusively from Zionsville’s General Fund, as it Wingfield is earmarked to be. “I don’t think the town should fund the entire feasibility study,” he said. “There are a couple grants out there the town may be eligible for.” Council President Tim Haak is optimistic, if guarded, about the idea. “I support at least exploring the idea,” he said. “We all might think it’s a great idea to have something like this, but if it doesn’t make sense, it doesn’t make sense.” Norton was more assertive. “This facility is something missing in our Haak region.”

A 3,000-seat arena, when filled to capacity in a town of 22,000 people, is analogous to a city the size of Indianapolis filling a 112,000-seat venue – approximately twice the capacity of Lucas Oil Stadium.

Zionsville parks and trails It is our position Zionsville should be congratulated on being a part of the second healthiest county in Indiana. The annual County Health Rankings, released by the University of Wisconsin, takes into account the number of low weight births and the rate of people who die before age 75, has deemed Boone County second behind Hamilton County. We find it encouraging that Zionsville residents take the time to ensure they are healthy. We would like to challenge residents in Zionsville to come in first next year. We are privileged to live in an area rich with parks and trails designed to accommodate all sorts of outdoor activities. As the weather continues to warm up, we should try to take full advantage of these resources. We understand everyone has a busy schedule and it can be difficult to get out as much as we’d like and get some exercise. However, with a little preplanning and motivation, we can all get out and be active. We’ve already paid for all these parks and trails … we might as well take full advantage of them.

Wanna write us a letter? You can do it a couple ways. The easiest is to e-mail it to info@ currentzionsville.com.

Worldwide misspeak Commentary by Terry Anker

In a world of instant messaging and the land of ubiquitous social media, an off-handed remark can be broadcast to thousands – perhaps millions – of people. Urged by the goal of expanding those who know and understand the importance of routine philanthropy in their lives, our community foundation, The Legacy Fund, has started a program to make full use of the array of these modern communication tools including Facebook, Twitter, blogs and LinkedIn. Mostly, Legacy Fund posts photos of local events and heroes along with the occasional notice of some piece designed to inspire giving. Yet, when reposting a story from The Wall Street Journal which innocuously enough supported corporate philanthropy, a far-away reader jumped into the fray with a stinging assessment of the purported generosity of the business leaders who give. Now, it seems one can, at the push of an all-too-easy button on the handy cell phone, post each fragment of thought. If a basic tenant of public discourse is to

“know one’s audience,” then the open nature of the Web is antithetical to this objective. Once posted, information is impossible to control and contain, yet entirely easy to contort. Recently, filmmaker Spike Lee tweeted online to millions the address of the shooter of the young boy in Florida. Unfortunately, Mr. Lee had an address for the wrong people. Thereafter, these folks have been receiving death threats and are in hiding for fear of their family’s safety. Should Mr. Lee be held to account for inciting vigilantism? Or, was his incident a simple misspeak amplified by the megaphone provided by social media? Regardless, it is clear these, like any powerful tools, are inherently dangerous and must be treated with special care. Likewise, their irresponsible use can carry great consequence to both user and bystander.

“Don’t worry about the world coming to an end today. It’s already tomorrow in Australia.”

We noticed a letter to the editor, published by the other newspaper in this town, which took to task our managing editor, Derek Fisher, over quotes he used in his cover story on the schools referendum (Current in Zionsville, March 27). The facts of the matter are, according to Derek (and we stand by him solidly): • He met Joan Lyons (the author of the letter in question) on Feb. 7 at SullivanMunce Cultural Center, after he stopped in to inquire about obtaining historical photographs for Current’s “Then & Now” feature. • He was introduced to Joan Lyons by Melissa Fanning, development coordinator for SullivanMunce. • While speaking with Derek about Current’s potential use of SullivanMunce’s photographs, Lyons also was very forthcoming in a brief chat with Derek about the upcoming school referendum vote. • Lyons’ views were offered up in an unsolicited manner, and no affirmation of anything being off the record was given. • This meeting was verified as having occurred in a March 22 e-mail reply from Fanning. Derek had e-mailed her for the distinct purpose of making sure he got Lyons’ name correct for the referendum story. • Lyons included some photographs from her personal collection in the group, from which Derek selected the “Then & Now” photos. She even made handwritten notes – with the intent to assist Derek – to go along with some of them, identifying dates and locations. As you can see, it was and shall continue to be all aboveboard as concerns Current in Zionsville. If you ever find anything to the contrary, please write us at info@youarecurrent.com.

Opinion

Current readers welcome at coffee shop Commentary by Derek Fisher I’m setting up shop in Zionsville. No, not that kind of shop; Current Publishing will still retain just one hub office in Carmel for all its platforms. What I mean to say is I’m setting up calling hours for you – and you, and you and you, too – to stop by and discuss all things Zionsville with me. So, mark it down: Wednesdays between 10 a.m. and noon at Eagle Creek Coffee Co., I’m all ears. I’m all ears for your story ideas. I’m all ears for your questions. I’m all ears for your comments, concerns and I’m all ears for your company, if you so desire. As good as the dialogue has been thus far between myself and our lovely town, it’s about to get better and more accessible. I envision this method – already employed by another Current editor in another location, to rave reviews – will be more ergonomic than traversing the usual technological channels of communication. Oh, you can still call or e-mail

or Morse code me if you like, but if you choose to simply drop by the café unannounced, that’s perfectly all right. Many of you, mostly outside the 46077 ZIP code, have also asked me about the method of acquiring copies, or additional copies, of Current in Zionsville. With our delivery model being what it is, my Eagle Creek hours are the perfect solution. I’ll bring a stack of CiZ with me, and any and all will be free to take one. See, at Current, we’re all about being local. And what better way to be local, outside of my eventually filling out a change of address form, than to be right here? Come bend my ear for a bit and tell me what you know, what you’ve heard, what you like and what you don’t. No appointment required.

Humor

Running with leaky pipes Laughs by Danielle Wilson Warning: The following may cause embarrassment and eye-rolling in people of the male persuasion. Read at your own risk. Also, if you are pregnant or plan to become so, you may want to skip on over to another column. As most of you know, I recently turned 40. My twin sister, in order to celebrate this milestone, decided to have a baby. A baby! I can’t top that, but her pregnancy did inspire me to seek out some sort of challenge to prove to myself getting older doesn’t have to mean dementia and osteoporosis. I chose a marathon. Not a full 26.2 miles of course − suffering through one of those puppies was the most miserable experience of my 20s − but a 13.1-mile (half ) marathon. It’s still impressive, but far less fatal. And Doo and I are planning a beach vacation with the kids during the summer, so a mini seemed like a great idea. I’ve been training for about six weeks now and am progressing on schedule, but am facing one major hurdle every time I jog. Uncontrollable urination. And not in a wayside port-a-let. Actually, mid-running. What the hoo-ha? I can deal with the sore knees, the racing heart, even the occasional light-headedness and nausea that come with overexerting myself on a record-high temperature day after 10 hours of work, but I must draw the line at soaking myself.

For more laughs, read Mike Redmond's column at currentzionsville.com And I’ve tried everything short of self-imposed dehydration. Nothing helps. So now I’m stuck wondering how I’ll manage a maxi pad or even a Depends on race day. Because it’s so freakin’ distracting, not to mention humiliating, when I’m only a mile in and the leaking begins. I ran one hour this morning, and the first thing I had to do once I stumbled into the house and let Doo know I’d survived, hop in the shower. Here I am trying to get in shape and show my kids how to set and reach goals, and a little thing like bladder control may derail me. What’s a gal to do? I do have a friend who opted for surgical treatment, but I’m just not sure I’m ready for that. Sewing up the nether region seems like something my mother or grandmother should be worrying about, not me. I just want to be able to run a few miles and mop up sweat, not urine, like normal people. Is that too much to ask? Peace out.

Closing costs paid by State Bank of Lizton (SBL) are limited to appraisal, credit report, flood determination, title search and recording fees. Property insurance is required. Borrower paid title insurance and appraisal fees are required when sum of all liens on property exceed $350,000. Subject to application, credit approval, acceptable appraisal and title search. Advertised APR is available on lines of $50,000 or greater, with loan-to-value ratio of 80% or less, and includes an additional .25% discount for optional automatic payment from a SBL personal checking account. Borrower must meet specific underwriting criteria and draw a minimum of $20,000 at time of closing to obtain the advertised rate and waiver of the $50 annual fee for the life of the loan. The APR is based on Prime plus or minus a margin. The margin is based on your home’s loan-to-value ratio, lien position, owner occupancy status, applicant’s credit history, and the amount of the credit line. The APR is variable and can change monthly, but will never be higher than 21.0%. “Prime” means “Bank Prime Loan’ rate published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in its statistical release H.15 (519) entitled “Selected Interest Rates.” Use of the word “Prime” does not mean that the rate is the best or lowest rate offered by any lender. Current Prime rate is 3.25% as of March 1, 2012, current rates are available from 2.25% APR to 9.25% APR. The highest possible rate does not reflect this discount. Other credit lines are available that require less equity for qualified borrowers. The amount of savings realized with debt consolidation varies by loan. Since a home equity line may have a longer term than some of the bills being consolidated, there may not be a savings over the entire time of the line if you make only the minimum payments.

Exilis to fix liposuction Commentary by Dr. Barry Eppley

Q: I had liposuction six months ago that has left me with some unevenness over the thigh areas. The skin has some dimpling and a few more obvious humps in the upper portion of outer thighs. My doctor told me to give it six months after surgery to see if they would smooth out, and they definitely haven’t. Would Exilis be able to fix or improve how this looks? A: Skin irregularities are the result of an uneven fat layer under the skin. They can become apparent after liposuction due to pre-existing cellulite, poor skin elasticity and an irregular layering of residual fat left behind. One has to look carefully at the lumps and bumps to determine if filling the indentations, decreasing the height of the lumps or some combination approach is best. Tough to quit – Women find it more difficult to quit smoking than men, a new study suggests. A woman’s brain reacts differently to nicotine, and has more nicotine receptors in critical parts of the brain than male counterparts. livescience.com

www.currentzionsville.com

Exilis is a radiofrequency device that does spot fat reduction and has some degree of a skin-tightening effect. I find it to be one of the best nonsurgical approaches to treat liposuction deformities available today. It will likely have some beneficial effects on the contour of the thigh skin by helping to reduce the thicker or raised fat areas. It usually requires three or four treatments done in the office every two weeks to see the best effect. But if the indentations are the main contour problems, those are best treated by fat injections. Dr. Eppley is an Indianapolis board-certified plastic surgeon.

DOUGH

Insurance

Protection for pool owners Commentary by Andy Warren Question from Charles S. of Carmel: We’re going to open our pool up for the summer in the next month or so and are slightly concerned we don’t have all of our bases covered when it comes to protecting ourselves. What are the big issues? Response from Andy Warren: Issues The most important thing to remember as a pool owner is you make sure your insurance agent knows you have a pool. Failure to notify your agent can result in denied claims and the liability risk falling completely on you. This is very important to remember if you add a pool to your existing property. Not having the pool on your policy can expose you to some serious unwanted risks. Carriers have varying requirements and pricing schemes when it comes to pools. Independent insurance agencies have access to many carriers and will be able to find the best combination of price and coverages for your needs. Coverage recommendations We recommend at least $1 million in liability coverage for all of our clients with a homeowners policy. I would also advise adding an additional $1 million of coverage by adding an

umbrella liability policy to protect you and your family against catastrophic claims. Claim prevention Having adequate insurance in place protects your assets if an incident occurs, but it does nothing to prevent something from happening. Liability almost always falls on the pool owner and staying on top of your responsibility to keep your pool safe and secure is just as important as having the proper insurance in place. A safety pool cover protected by lock and key is probably the best place to start. A quality cover completely seals the pool and prevents accidental access to the water by unwanted visitors, children and pets. Making sure your pool is protected by a fence is also a good idea, but no fence is unconquerable. It’s also important to remember claims can happen no matter what you do to prevent them. You buy insurance to protect yourself and your family. Facing a liability claim without an insurance company standing by your side can make an already unpleasant situation much worse. Andy Warren is with Shepherd Insurance & Finanacial Services. Have an insurance question you need answered? Send it to asktheadvisor@shepherdins.com.

INSIDE & OUT

Outdoors

Retrofit, repurpose to the rescue Commentary by Randy Sorrell The art and appreciation of retrofit continues to grow. Initially, its popularity was economically driven. Happy homeowners wanted to improve their outdoor living space, but tight wallets didn’t allow for draining the bank account or tapping home equity lines. Fashionable Now, after gobs of successful redone projects where original patios remained and added to, and society became comfortable with working with what we have, retrofits just seem both smart and fashionable. Lending credibility to the process is the burning trend of rescue/reuse/ recycle where forgotten chandeliers in the attic are repurposed as cool hanging light effects infused with candles, and once ugly peeling iron fence sections become historic features for climbing vines (done them both). Sure, our industry thrives on ripping out everything, designing bright and shiny ultimate backyard retreats and installing them as a blank slate. But, not everyone or every home needs that. There is something very satisfying about “solutioneering” the old to something completely new and livable. Landscape The featured picture is a perfect retrofit example. Mature spruce trees and stately boxwood

will remain in the landscape, but the tired creeping junipers and crimson pygmy barberries will be replaced, likely with something a little more refined for this elegant Carmel residence. I can imagine a stately bed of pachysandra with a variegated hosta border for the shady area. A trio of pink hydrangea would offer prolonged flowering and nice fall color if we select the glowing embers variety. Landscape retrofits are not always appropriate and can be more challenging than working with existing concrete patios, walks, porches, stone columns and other hardscape elements. Scale

is a major issue. With mature trees and shrubs remaining, newly planted items often don’t look visually appealing and seem out of place, even after years of growth. The art of retrofit is similar to the art of luxurious outdoor living. It takes consideration, moderation and imagination to be successful.

Indoors Tile: Sure-footed shower floor luxury INSIDE & OUT

Remodeling by David Decker

Certain home construction materials in certain applications just naturally provide a secure, confident, luxurious feel, and it’s hard to explain exactly why. I’d put stone tile shower flooring right at the top of that list. Beautiful and spa-like, wet stone feels great underfoot. Specially cut and contoured, tile is the top choice when it comes to putting down a new shower floor. What’s especially dramatic is the difference between standing on a new tile floor, and the old experience of standing in a fiberglass tub bottom or on the hard-painted finish of a traditional cast iron bathtub. The first never feels quite solid, and the second can be dangerously slick. And let’s mention the “up and over” step into a tub can be perilous, not to mention overly athletic, in the drowsy first moments of the day. Customers routinely tell us it is the easy entry, solid feeling, no-slip excursion into an updated and redesigned shower that is the piece de resistance, the sensual highlight, of a custom bathroom improvement project. It’s no wonder shower/tub combinations are disappearing from master bathrooms in favor of larger, glass-enclosed or even European-style (no shower walls) units that make the bathroom a special, relaxing

and cozy sanctuary. Tile shower flooring can be composed of ceramic, porcelain, glass or other materials beside stone. While standard flooring tiles can be slick when wet, shower flooring is typically contoured or treated to enhance traction. It also tends to be installed in smaller pieces to accommodate shaping for slope and drainage, and the smaller pieces mean more grout joints, which provide even more traction. Professional installation is nearly a must because water is difficult to contain and persistently goes unwanted places creating mold, mildew and leak issues. Installed improperly, a tile shower floor is a permanent headache. Installed properly, a tile shower floor is a permanent luxury and a sure-footed good vibe.
