Zionsville Resident Ewbanks Backs Reid – Susan Brooks and Chard Reid appear to be comparable candidates for the congressional seat in the Fifth District. A closer analysis of their platforms clearly reveals just how much Reid, the Libertarian candidate, outshines his Republican opponent. Whereas Brooks offers generalities and platitudes, Reid shares justification for his Ewbanks specific plans to defend the Constitution, to balance the budget, to reform entitlement programs and to call for an audit of the Federal Reserve.

Plain Talk
With butter cookies, it takes real talent Commentary By Ward Degler So, you think you’re hot stuff in an Oreo competition? Go ahead, tell us how quickly you can twist the cookie into two pieces, the speed with which you can lap off the icing with your tongue and the artistry and finesse with which you dunk the halves in milk and pop them into your mouth. But as far as I’m concerned, the Oreo business is strictly amateur stuff. Real talent shows up only when you tackle a butter cookie. Eating a butter cookie takes a level of concentration and professional nerve control usually found only in astronauts dodging a meteor storm. A butter cookie, of course, is shaped like a flower with a hole in the center. The competition begins when you set the box on the table. Each contestant takes out a cookie and carefully examines it for cracks that might cause it to crumble. Next, gently but firmly slip the cookie onto
your little finger. It’s got to be a solid fit, but apply too much pressure, and it’s all over. Next, start nibbling carefully in a circle, slowly reducing the size of the cookie. Most competitors start out with large bites to quickly cut the cookie down to size. Then delicately, with surgical precision, they nibble the cookie away until the slimmest ring remains on their finger. Either contestant can call the game when they think they’ve got the smallest ring. If they do, they win. Winners, of course, get free cookies. Think it’s easy? Try it. I used to beat my sister three out of five. Sadly as I grew older, my finger got too big and I was forced into retirement. But sometimes I still think about the good old days when I was the reigning butter cookie champion. Heady wine indeed. Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife and dog.

editorial@youarecurrent.com Salon 01 has hired four full-time people recently, and still has as many as 10 more partand full-time positions to fill. The hiring initiative is taking place mostly due to a recent expansion on the Monon level of the City Center Drive location to now include a spa and central Indiana’s first-ever “blow-dry bar.” Salon 01 Blow Out! is a new salon concept, popular in larger coastal cities, that specializes in the art of the blow-dry.

With the expansion, Salon 01 also began an aggressive hiring campaign to staff the
nail care, massage and skincare spaces. With state-of-the-art equipment, Salon 01 is a place anyone trained in nail, skin or massage services would want to call home. “We are thrilled to be able to grow our business in a difficult economic environment,” said Micki Stirsman, creative director and owner of Salon 01. “It’s exciting to be filling positions to satisfy a growing demand for these services.

Hoosier financial blogger releases new book By Derek Fisher • derek@youarecurrent.com Zionsville resident Tadas Viskanta, a prominent financial blogger, has released a new book – “Abnormal Returns: Winning Strategies from the Frontline of the Investment Blogosphere.” The book, published by McGraw-Hill earlier this month, is available in hardcover and e-book formats. In it, Viskanta offers a back-to-basics approach to investing while revealing simple truths about fixed-income investing, risk management, portfolio management, global investing, ETFs, active investing and more. “In a certain sense the book is six years in the making,” Viskanta said. “Although the book itself was written quickly, it is filled with concepts that stuck with me over the past six years.” This foray into print is hardly Viskanta’s first step into the limelight. He is a co-author of “Country Risk in Global Financial Management” and articles in publications such as the Financial Analysts Journal and Journal of Portfolio Management. His “Abnormal Returns”
blog is considered one of the most influential on the Web, and Barron’s recently named Viskanta one of its “20 Tweeps for Keeps.” Praise has already begun pouring in for the book, which Viskanta argues cuts through the market “noise” to provide readers with a userfriendly approach to smarter investing. “Tadas lives at the intersection between Wall Street and the Internet, on the bleeding edge of a new world of financial social leverage,” said Barry Ritholtz, author of “Bailout Nation.” “If you want to know what the traders and fund managers of the post-crisis 2020 boom think, read Tadas.” Viskanta adds, “Most investors claim that their time horizons are in the decades if not years, let alone months or weeks. If that is the case, why are they spending their time watching CNBC and trying to trade during the day?” Viskanta is a native Hoosier who did undergraduate work at Indiana University before receiving his MBA from the University of Chicago.

Cover story
Zak Brown uses his passion for racing to ignite his motorsports marketing firm By Ward Degler • editorial@youarecurrent.com When you are a boy growing up in the streets of Los Angeles, where cars are almost a religion, you just naturally want to become a race driver. At least that’s how Zak Brown, CEO and founder of Zionsville’s Just Marketing International got his start behind the wheel. “My dad was a race fan, and used to take me to the races,” Brown said. “It gets in your blood, and you’re always looking for your next ride.” For Brown, 40, his first ride on the racing circuit was go-karts. “When I was 13, I was a contestant on the kids edition of ‘Wheel of Fortune,’” he said. “I won two gold Cartier watches.” He said he kept the watches for a while but eventually sold them and bought his first kart. He admits that his mother was furious. “But, I had my first gokart,” he added with a grin. “Besides, what does a 15-year-old kid need with two gold watches?” While still in high school, he started racing karts with the nephew of famed off-road racing legend Mickey Thompson. “Like I said, it gets into your blood,” he added. During the next five years, Brown went on to win 22 kart races, catching the attention of the Formula road racing circuit in England. For the following few years, he won races and built a name and reputation for himself in European road racing. “Then I decided to move back to the states and try for the Indianapolis 500,” Brown said. He didn’t quite make it into the Greatest Spectacle in Racing, but he brought with him from Europe the germ of an idea that would one day become the largest motorsports marketing company in the world. “My sponsor in Europe was Trans World Airlines,” he said, “and while they were sorry to see me leave the country, they wondered if I could help them develop some marketing connections in the states.” It occurred to Brown that other corporations might also like some help navigating the complex world of motorsports. “My sponsor wanted to know what I would call my company,” he said. “I didn’t particularly want my name out there, so I told them it was just a marketing company – just marketing.” The name stuck and Just Marketing International was born in 1995. “I didn’t really have a business plan,” Brown said. “I just pursued marketing ideas that I thought corporations could use.” www.currentzionsville.com

The company has since developed an enviable client list that includes Subway, Smirnoff, Crown Royal, IBM, Unilever, Farmers Insurance, driver Jeff Gordon and fully a dozen others. Brown, a Carmel resident, also has opened offices in London and Singapore to accentuate the international motorsports reach of his business. Today the marketing and merchandising needs of JMI clients are handled by a staff of motorsports specialists and marketing professionals. The company employs 130 people. In 2006, JMI moved into its spacious new headquarters building on Bennett Parkway in Zionsville. The building is open and airy, and obviously motorsports-oriented. A Formula 1 racecar hangs on the wall in the lobby, along
with a display of racing helmets and driving suits. Another part of the building houses a dozen other cars including Brown’s prized Jaguar XK 140 and a vintage Austin Healey 3000. Brown said he owns a dozen or more racecars, most of them still racing in Europe. When Current caught up with Brown last week, he had just returned from Europe, where he drove in the annual Monaco Grand Prix. Afterward, just for kicks, he test drove the newest Lotus F-1 car on the fabled Paul Ricard track in France. “(It was) the biggest thrill of my life,” he said. All of which proves that even while manning the helm of the biggest motorsports marketing company on the planet, you still can’t keep a boy raised in L.A. out of the cockpit of a racecar.

Opinion Council’s bridge call right on the money
To the Class of 2012: Believe in yourself It is our position that good luck, good will and good fortune be bestowed upon the Class of 2012, for they are unique in their own way. They began their primary education at the turn of the century, riding the wave of the Y2K scare. A few years later, America experienced the deadliest attack on U.S. soil that forever changed our country. It’s a class whose normal view of the world is being at war. They are perhaps one of the most technologically well-versed classes to date. They’ve grown up in the spotlight by expressing themselves to the world through social media. The information-age, Google kids are now young adults armed with a diploma, ready to move on to the next phase in life – learning how to make a living in a weakened economy. The best advice may be found in the “How Communities Form” chapter of their social studies books from grade school. Be industrious. Be creative. Be entrepreneurial. Don’t be afraid of hard work. Take risks. In the words of author and psychologist Richard Carlson, “Don’t Sweat The Small Stuff.” Lyricist Johnny Mercer wrote quite simply, “Accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative.” Finally, believe in yourself. Congratulations.

It's Greek to me
Commentary by Terry Anker
While traveling with a group speaking in various cities in the Middle East and Eastern Europe on the Austrian School of Economics, I found myself in Greece at the very time that its government is up-for-grabs and its economy is on the verge of collapse. The 350 or more folks that packed an auditorium in Thessaloniki (the second largest city after Athens) were concerned about the future of the country and its participation in the European Union. That night at a late dinner, I found myself sitting next to an affable Greek man whose spouse had served on the local organizing committee for the day’s events. After discovering that his sister had attended IU, our conversation ultimately turned to economics. He asserted that the highest form of humanity thus far to inhabit our spinning rock were the ancient Greeks. He suggested that they spent their time in pursuit of enlightenment, not the avarice befalling (his words) the West today. He claimed that rampant materialism is the order
of the day. Hmm. Didn’t those ancient men all have slaves to serve their material needs freeing them for other interests? Well, he conceded that slavery wasn’t ideal, but defended the short workday and early retirement of many Greeks. Then, I asked, were modern Greeks, by failing to address their significant debt to the rest of the EU while continuing to demand financial support, simply resting on the toil of others, specifically the Germans? Had the Teutonic people become slaves to a fresh Greek leisure class? My companion smiled and responded, well maybe. Besides, he continued, the EU should never have allowed Greece to borrow from the beginning, so they deserved it. Yet, as I reflected on our own growing deficit, I wondered if our generation is enslaving the next. Somehow, it doesn’t feel right.

The Zionsville Town Council recently pulled the plug – correctly and seemingly temporarily – on funding for the 1940s-era, steel-truss bridge installation slated for Ford Road. Bickering and finger-pointing exercises between council members and those among the Boone County Commissioners reached a point where it was tabled. At issue is whether the town would be emblematic of good stewardship of county dollars. On the residents’ side, there are ecological and heavytraffic concerns. We don’t necessarily have a dog in the fight, and we’re all for repurposing, but a bridge from the ’40s? Even if it were free, it still makes us scratch our heads. It doesn’t seem to us to represent infrastructure for the future. ••• The long-awaited draft of an economic development strategic plan for the southeast portion of town is online at www.zionsville-in.gov. It’s a hefty 128MB file, so please be patient as it downloads – and be sure to read it if you have an interest in the economic future of the area.

Lesson learned Laughs by Danielle Wilson
I know I just wrote an amazing column on planning the ultimate Mother’s Day, but for some reason, I didn’t heed my own advice. Stupid! Here’s what went down. For starters, I had two unsanctioned events scheduled, so I knew enjoying the day would prove challenging. Our oldest had a soccer game at 1 (with the potential to play in the championship at 6) and a daughter had volleyball at 12:30. (I’m sorry, but who schedules youth sporting events on Mother’s Day? That’s my day, damn it!) So my “plan” for Mother’s Day went something like this: Maybe squeeze in DSW in the morning and then perhaps hit Castleton late afternoon, followed by Panera or possibly an evening flick. Or, bag all shopping and plant flowers. Note: At no time prior to Mother’s Day did I discuss any of this with Doo, nor outline my expectations for him and the kids, which is why it all went to hell fairly quickly. I woke up and came down to a pile of dishes. My children did wish me a happy Mother’s Day, but that was the extent of their “Be Nice to Mom” agenda. When I asked for my cards/gifts/ clay ashtrays, I got five blank stares. Then I casually announced that eggs and bacon sounded
good, but no one took the hint. Shortly thereafter I left for Clay Terrace, only to end up brooding in my mini-van because the stores didn’t open until eleven. I flew by the house at noon to grab my girls for volleyball, help Doo pack up the boys and confirm that the kitchen was still a pit. My daughter won, but unfortunately, so did my futbol star. Now I was really in a quandary. I could either skip his big match and wallow in guilt and buttered popcorn, or sacrifice the remainder of the day to support him. Regrettably, my motherly instincts prevailed. I did manage a Macy’s moment before the game, and was able to spend his warm-up eating soup with Doo, but we didn’t get home until 8:30, just in time to prep lunches. The last straw? Doo’s comment as I was sulking upstairs: “I think we’re just too busy for you to have Mother’s Day anymore.” Pause for effect. But, we live and learn, and things will go differently next year. Peace out.

In the junk drawer
What are the chances? Laughs by Dick Wolfsie
Great news for people who drink coffee, especially if they drink lots of it. Apparently, it’s a healthy beverage option, even better than tea. But not as good as a vegetable smoothie with a raw egg and a lump of tofu in it. I started loving coffee when I was a toddler. My dad often poured a few drops from his morning cup into my glass of milk. My mother, always concerned about her children’s health and safety, took me to the pediatrician to ask if this small dose of caffeine was potentially harmful for a 6-year-old. Dr. Barnes said it wasn’t, so we got back in the car where I crawled around in the back seat as my mother drove 80 miles an hour while smoking half a pack of Camels. According to USA Today, pouring yourself several servings a day can reduce your chances of dying by 10 percent. I have read similar stats that sing the praises of walnuts, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, kiwi, dark cherries, wearing a bike helmet, 20 minutes of exercise a day and getting eight hours sleep. I’m a devotee of all those items on the list, so I now figure I have a 100-percent chance of not dying. Usually I scoff at data like this, but this is compelling stuff. Statistics don’t lie. By the way, I hope that “pouring” was the
operative word. Yesterday, for example, while working on this column, I poured myself six cups of coffee. But I didn’t drink six cups. There’s a mug still in the basement, a full serving on the back porch, two filled Styrofoam cups sitting on top of my car, and my “Best Dad” mug is three-quarters filled and parked in front of the bathroom mirror. Studies also show that drinking coffee increases short-term memory. But I guess you have to actually drink the stuff if you want to recall where you left your Folgers in the house. In one part of the research, the scientists caution you to remember that all the news about coffee is not good. For example, doctors still suspect there may be one ingredient in a cup of coffee that can raise your cholesterol. Yes, that would be the cream. You’re welcome. Breaking news! While fact checking, scientists found a flaw in the research. Apparently, most of the studies were done based on interviews at Starbucks. It is now believed that coffee has no effect on longevity, but people are apt to live longer if they can get free Wi-Fi.

Laughs by Mike Redmond I was digging through my desk the other day and found a receipt for gasoline from 1984. This was back in the days when the attendant came out to your car and asked, “Fill ‘er up?” which I apparently did. It was 11.3 gallons. Which, I should tell you, did not go very far back then, seeing as I was driving a Pontiac TransAm with the Extra Testosterone Package and the Ridiculous Performance Group. Anyway, the receipt tells me I paid the princely sum of $16 for those 11.3 gallons of gas. Sixteen United States of America dollars for gasoline priced at $1.40.9 per gallon, plus tax. Wow. How times have changed. I gave up TransAmnification years ago for the more sedate travel experience of the pickup truck. Not long ago, I drove to Northern Indiana to give a speech. On the way back, I had to fill up my truck. It took half my speaking fee. I am not kidding. I need to raise my rates. Anyway, that’s the world we live in today. Which makes me kind of glad I kept that gas receipt. Actually, I’ve kept a lot of stuff, now that I dig around a bit. You know how some people have junk drawers? I have a junk desk. Here’s a short inventory from the top drawer: • One French-English dictionary from the
seventh grade. • A letter opener that belonged to my grandfather. • Two buttons I snagged covering the 1980 Republican National Convention: “Dick Lugar for Vice President” and “Reagan/ Lugar.” • A McGovern button from 1972. (I don’t seem to be on much of a winning streak, political-button-wise.) • Pencils that may go back to the Jurassic Period, also known as elementary school. I’m going to have them carbon-dated. • A set of keys for that TransAm. Wow. This isn’t a desk. It’s a time capsule. I don’t know whether to donate it to the Smithsonian or bury it in the backyard. Or maybe I’ll keep it for the time when reality TV, with the shows about people bidding on storage spaces and lost luggage, finally gets around to producing “American Junk Drawer.” Who knows? By then, the stuff in my desk might be valuable enough for me to buy a tank of gas. Mike Redmond is an author, journalist, humorist and speaker. Write him at mike@ mikeredmondonline.com or P.O.

The Nickel Plate Arts Weekend is bringing local art, food and culture outdoors this weekend By Christian Sorrell • christian@youarecurrent.com This weekend, artists and local artisans will take part in the Nickel Plate Arts Weekend. The weekend is composed of more than 30 separate events across Noblesville, Fishers, Tipton, Arcadia and Cicero. The planned events include fine art exhibits, interactive art locations, local food and train rides. “The Nickel Plate Arts Weekend emerged out of the Hamilton County Artist Association’s Plein Air Paint-Out. Many area artists knew that this is not an event to miss. We saw that as an opportunity for something that Nickel Plate Arts could adopt and spin off from,” said Betsy Jones, interim director of Nickel Plate Arts and director of tourism development for the Hamilton County Convention and Visitors Bureau. Nickel Plate Arts, the organization responsible for the weekend, is spinning off from the
Hamilton County Convention and Visitors Bureau into its own nonprofit organization that will act as a single hub from which a number of area artists, local galleries, festivals and other organizations can collaborate to further the arts throughout Hamilton County and central Indiana. This weekend is the first major step in that collaboration. “We commissioned 16 different local artists to paint large, outdoor umbrellas. Those umbrellas will be spread across the five communities (during the weekend) and will be accompanied by information, volunteers, artists and musicians,” said Jones. The public will have a chance to view all 16 umbrellas from 9 a.m. to noon this Friday at the Noblesville Square. While the HCAA’s fourth annual Plein Air Paint-Out is one of the weekend’s main events, other highlights include Noblesville’s Old Mill Festival, the Art Train from Noblesville to
Cicero, Arcadia and Tipton, Main Street’s Jazz Squared and the Nickel Plate Arts Campus Preview at the historic Judge Stone House. “We saw this weekend as our chance to enhance the Plein Air Paint-Out with more interactive elements and reasons to travel around the county. We aren’t looking to create something from nothing,” said Jones. “We are looking at what is bubbling up around us and what is already deeply embedded in our communities. We want to cultivate and enhance that.” In the future, Nickel Plate Arts is planning to host classes in a wide variety of areas such as visual art, music and poetry. “Our goal is to make art available and obvious. We want it to be accessible,” said Jones.

NIGHT & DAY Game Review Diablo III is a strong game wrapped in technical problems and utter inconvenience Commentary by Christian Sorrell It has been more than 12 years since its predecessor, but Diablo III is finally here. Following in the footsteps of other titles like Starcraft II, Blizzard, the game’s developer, has created something that is very much another Diablo game. For many, that will be a great thing. This time around, there are five different classes to pick from: the Witch Doctor, the Barbarian, the Wizard, the Monk and the Demon Hunter. Overall, the gameplay is the same as before, but the skill trees have been entirely reworked and simplified. For veteran players, it may feel like the game has been dumbed down with these changes, and I wouldn’t say that’s entirely inaccurate. In an attempt to fight online piracy, Blizzard requires Diablo III to be connected to the Internet at all times, even while playing single player and not utilizing any of the online functions in any way. This is, for the most part, unprecedented and honestly, it is the main reason for most of the game’s problems up to this point. This always-online connection requirement means that when Blizzard’s servers are down, players are completely unable to play the game. When they suffer any sort of connection issue on their end, the players will be pushed back to the game’s main menu instantly. When playing

alone, you will still experience lag from time to time, as if you were playing an online game. Ultimately, Diablo III is an easy game to recommend to fans of the series and newcomers alike … when it works, which so far has not been very often. Hopefully Blizzard will iron out the kinks, and we will all be demon slaying consistently for weeks to come. Diablo III is on sale now at local video game retailers and online at Diablo3.com.

Film “Coriolanus” • R, 123 minutes
Commentary by Chris Lloyd
Shakespeare has rarely translated well to film, and even when it does – “Shakespeare in Love,” “Romeo + Juliet” – it’s usually in a modernistic, revisionist way that steps outside the rigid confines of the Bard’s plays. And the reason is simple: with nigh on half a millennium separating our version of the English from his, it’s very difficult for anyone who’s not a Ph.D. in literature to comprehend just what the heck the characters are saying. “Coriolanus,” based on one of Shakespeare’s lesser-known works, lies somewhere in between. The dialogue is tweaked enough to make it so the layman can follow along, but the bones of the story are still there. Ralph Fiennes, who also makes his directing
debut, plays the title character, an over-proud general just returned triumphant to Rome. He thinks his honor has won him the right to become consul, but the common people do not love him, and scheming politicians maneuver to rob him of the title. Enraged, Coriolanus joins forces with his mortal enemy to wage war against the empire. It’s grandiose, bombastic stuff, and both Fiennes and Vanessa Redgrave were passed over for Academy Award nominations they probably deserved. Movie: B

In a large bowl, whisk together remaining 1 tablespoon oil, vinegar, teriyaki sauce and honey. Add chicken mixture, cherries, carrot, green onion and almonds; toss together. To serve: Spoon 1/12 of the chicken/cherry mixture onto the center of each lettuce leaf; roll up leaf around filling and serve - AllRecipes.com
Recommendation: Belle Glos Meiomi Pinot Noir 2010 ($20) Pinot Noir is one of the best wines to pair with cherries, mostly because the flavor itself is reminiscent of sweet red berries, plums and cherries. With this dish, the pinot noir will match and enhance the flavor of the Cherry Chicken. Available online and in specialty shops. www.currentzionsville.com

Caring for Alzheimer’s Home Instead Senior Care hopes free workshop will educate, help individuals caring for loved ones with Alzheimer’s disease By Jordan Fischer • jordan@youarecurrent.com Caring for someone with Alzheimer’s disease can be a challenging experience, and many in that position suffer from a lack of know-how, according to Jeff Sewell. “The public, individuals caring for people who need assistance are desperate for information,” said Sewell, owner of the North Indianapolis Home Instead Senior Care office. To help individuals caring for loved ones with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, Sewell’s office will hold its first, free family education workshop Thursday. The workshop will provide attendees with information and techniques used by professional caregivers for Alzheimer’s and dementia patients. “Once a person’s been diagnosed, a lot of people think it’s an immediate sentence that they’ll have to leave home and live in a facility,” Sewell said. “We’re trying to tell people that you can care for them at home in surroundings that will be familiar.” The free program is part of a shift at Home Instead Senior Care in how its caregivers serve Alzheimer’s and dementia patients. The new model is dubbed Changing Aging through Research and Education, or CARE for short. A big part of the model is the Life Journal, which is a collection of information and personal history about the patient that caregivers can use to engage patients. “A lot of times Alzheimer’s patients love to live in the
By the numbers • There are an estimated 5.4 million people with Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia in the U.S. today – a figure that’s projected to increase to more than 13 million by 2025. • In 2000, there were an estimated 100,000 dementia patients in Indiana alone. Today, there are more than 120,000, and will be a projected 130,000 by 2025 – a 30 percent increase over a 25-year period. • It’s estimated that one out of every seven individuals with dementia lives alone, and as much as 41 percent of them may remain undiagnosed. past,” Sewell sad. “Many of them can tell you their rank and serial number when they served in the military, but struggle with more recent memories.” The journal allows caregivers to tap into these memories to connect with their patients, an experience similar to one Sewell said he had with his own grandmother. “My grandma, as she aged, had trouble communicating,” he said. “Ironically, she kept her own journal, so when I visited I could read it and have something to talk to her about.” Sewell said he hopes the workshop will provide caregivers some universal tools to deal with their individual situations. “There’s no one situation like the other,” he said. “Every individual is going to progress at a different rate and experience different symptoms.” The free, family education workshop is Thursday from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Home Instead Senior Care Nora location, 941 E. 86th St., Suite 250, Indianapolis. More information is available by calling 252-472, or visiting www.homeinstead.com/141. An RSVP is requested for the event.

Medicare myths revealed Finance by Adam Cmejla
It’s time to lift the hood and examine Medicare, more specifically some common myths and misunderstandings that we see in our conversations with clients. A recent study found that 27 percent of pre-retiree respondents didn’t know how their health care expenses would change in retirement once enrolled in Medicare, and 65 percent of newly retired individuals (ages 65 to 75) say they pay the same or more for health care in retirement. Let’s examine four myths and facts about Medicare. Myth #1: Medicare is mandatory. Medicare is not mandatory. If you are an employee or the spouse of a covered employee and the current company has more than 20 employees, you are able to continue coverage under that group’s plan. Everyone else must enroll at age 65 or face a penalty. Myth #2: I’m automatically enrolled in Medicare. Medicare is not automatic, except if you are already receiving Social Security benefits. If you are not receiving Social Security benefits, you must enroll during open enrollment. Open enrollment is the three-month window leading up to your 65th birthday, the month of your birthday and the three months after. If you are covered under a group plan, you have up to seven months after group coverage ends to en-
roll without penalty. Myth #3: All medical costs are covered under Medicare. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, (non-medically driven) dental and eye exams, hearing aids, cosmetic surgery, billed services over Medicare-approved amounts and amounts not covered by deductibles and coinsurance (20 percent) are all the responsibility of the insured, not Medicare. This is why supplemental insurance is a key planning discussion (otherwise referred to as “medigap” policies). Myth #4: Medical expenses aren’t that much higher in retirement. Medicare premiums start at $99.90 per person and increase as one’s income increases. Add to that outof-pocket costs, prescription drug coverage, copayments, coinsurance, deductibles and supplemental premiums, and it’s easy to see how medical care must be a major planning piece in everyone’s retirement planning situation. If you haven’t already, make sure you sit down with a qualified professional to discuss these and many other scenarios that are likely to impact your retirement plan.

‘Elder plastic surgery’ becoming more common Commentary by Dr. Barry Eppley Q: I have lost weight and now have more neck skin than ever. I am 76 years young and still have a lot of living to do. I am very healthy, dance regularly and just feel like I should look better. Am I too old for a neck lift? A: Your age of 76 is certainly not a limiting factor in having face-lift or neck-lift surgery. As long as you are healthy and your doctor clears you for surgery, there is no reason not to enjoy the outcome of having your neck wattle removed. It would be fair to say that the result obtained will last you for much of your remaining years. The concept of “elder plastic surgery” is becoming more common as people are living longer and in better health than ever before. There is no age limit in feeling and looking good. Some surgical judgment, however, has to be exercised as to how extensive these procedures should be. It is obviously better to have some improvement done safely than a perfect result that has medical complications. Q: While having sex with my husband he leaned on my breast and it caused some immediate pain. For the past few days now, I have had lingering pain, although it has gotten better. That breast also feels a little harder now. Could I have a breast implant rupture? I had silicone implants placed three years ago.
A: Your question is actually a common one, and let me provide an overall explanation. The shell or bag of a breast implant is made of a very flexible but strong silicone elastomer material. It is designed knowing full well that it will regularly be exposed to a compressive crushing force … known as a mammogram. Any woman who has ever had a mammogram can testify to the fact that their breast is really squashed between two paddles during the procedure. Millions of breast implants are exposed to mammograms every year in the U.S. and around the world, and there is no evidence that they induce rupture unless the implant shell has already been weakened. So it is highly unlikely that rupture of breast implants can occur as a result of sexual activity. It takes a high energy force to rupture a breast implant such as might occur from an automobile accident or other traumatic injury. What you are likely feeling is a mild bruise around the implant capsule, which should go away in a few weeks. If in doubt, an MRI or a high-definition ultrasound will be needed to answer the breast implant rupture question conclusively. Dr. Eppley is an Indianapolis board-certified plastic surgeon.

Move the needle – simplify Commentary by CJ McClanahan
As I write this message, Facebook has just completed its first day of trading on the NASDAQ and closed $.23 above its opening price of $38. Already there are dozens of “Was Facebook Overhyped” stories flying all over the Internet. Last night, I had a long drive from a client and I listened to more than two hours of sports talk radio. In this time span, I heard at least five different explanations about why Steve Blake, and not Kobe Bryant, took the last shot in the Lakers game. It’s not enough to simply look at each of these issues and say – “Facebook opened on the NASDAQ” or “the Lakers lost.” Unfortunately, with a 24-hour news cycle and hundreds of outlets all competing for attention, the media make everything complex. This applies to all areas of our lives. Simple is no longer acceptable. As a result, when sales begin to slow in business, we assume it’s time for new products, services and marketing strategies. The next thing you know, we’ve added 10 menu items and signed up for a corporate Pinterest account. If these newest additions don’t immediately move the needle, we’ll add some more. It never seems to end. But in business, less is often more. The best example of this philosophy is the Down the middle – Greed gobbles up both the high and the low of the market; middle men like Black Rock (BLK) and Travelers (TRV). smartmoney.com
most profitable and valuable company on the planet – Apple. While their competitors continue to add products by the bushel, Apple has chosen to keep it simple. They have five main products (iPad, iPod, iPhone, Mac and iTunes) – that is it. Steve Jobs’ autobiographer, Walter Isaacson, pointed out that Jobs was obsessed with simplicity and believed that, “Deciding what not to do is as important as deciding what to do.” We can learn a lot from Jobs’ philosophy. Start by listing and ranking your products and services. Which is the most profitable? Which one generates the most sales? Which one are you the best at delivering? Which one is easiest to sell? Next, ask yourself where you spend the most time. Is it with the products/services that are easy to sell and generate the most profit, or those that barely break even and have a long sales cycle? I’ve done this a handful of times since starting my company nine years ago. Each time, I ended up completely eliminating one of my offerings, which quickly led to less stress and more profit. As with most things in life, the solution is simple. All you need to do is execute.

Largest Greek island creates Crete expectations
Can’t play golf outside? Raining cats and dogs? Just too darn hot?
Commentary by Don Knebel The inhabitants of Crete, the largest Greek island, have long suffered a strange libel. The biblical letter to Titus says, “Cretans are always liars, evil brutes, lazy gluttons.” Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel scene of the Last Judgment shows the Cretan King Minos with a serpent wrapped around him, judging the damned as they fall into Hell. But Cretans (not to be confused with cretins) got the last laugh in 1900 when English archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans uncovered on Crete the heart of an advanced civilization existing hundreds of years before civilization came to the Greek mainland. This once-forgotten civilization, now labeled “Minoan” in honor of King Minos, is literally the stuff of legend. Modern travelers to Crete can visit the restored Minoan palace of Knossos, near the modern city of Heraklion. That large complex, built between 1700 and 1400 B.C., eventually contained more than 1,300 interlocking rooms on multiple levels. It is the likely source of the ancient myth of the labyrinth, where King Minos is said to have kept the half-bull, half-man Minotaur. The Minoans were the first sea-farers, with ships carrying both goods and culture around the Mediterranean. Exported Minoan pottery has been found as far east as the Mediterranean coast of modern Israel. In fact, some people

think that the Philistines who settled along that coast were actually Minoans who fled Crete when a volcanic eruption destroyed their cities, perhaps giving rise to the legend of Atlantis. Cretans and King Minos have regained their good reputations. But be warned that the Greek islands were not created equal. If you long to see where European civilization really began, where the Minotaur was kept and where the legend of Atlantis may have started, a trip to Crete would
be a great choice. But if you imagine a Greek island with gleaming white villages on a hilltop above bright blue waters, you should probably stick with Santorini.

Sharp blades, sharp lawn Commentary by Chris Arney Mower blades will dull over time, which can have a negative impact on lawns and lawn mowers. Dull blades require more energy to cut and increase the wear and tear on your lawn mower. Over time, using less-than-sharp blades will begin to impact your lawn as well. Examine the tips of the grass after you cut the lawn. If the ends appear to be jagged or shredded, it’s time to sharpen the blades. A poor cut will cause the plant to recover more slowly, requiring more time, nutrients and water to repair itself. It also gives the end of the leaf a brown appearance and can detract from the overall appearance of the lawn. But remember: safety first! Disconnect the spark plug before working on the blades. Next, using the proper size wrench, loosen the bolt that secures the blade to the deck. Most mowers only have one bolt per blade. You might need
a block of wood to wedge against the blades so that it does not spin. After you have removed the blade, inspect it for damage; blades that are bent or have large divots need to be replaced. If it comes to replacement, I recommend taking the old blade with you to the store to match up the length and size of the bolt hole. Secure the blade in a vise before sharpening. Files and grinders will make short work of a dull edge. Carefully work the edge of the blade. You do not want to actually change the angle of the cutting edge, only make it sharper. Butter-knife sharp is all it takes to make a clean cut. Reinstall the blade and get back to cutting grass. Sharp blades will increase the life of your mower and improve the look of your lawn.
For the birds – Have a feeder but are only attracting run-of-the-mill birds? A feeder stocked with fresh fruit will tempt colorful birds like tanagers, orioles, bluebirds and waxwings. - almanac.com

New outdoor appreciation Commentary by Larry Greene
Original back patio: This home, located in the Claybridge subdivision on the west side of Carmel, was built in the early 1990s, and the current homeowners are the original owners. They commented, “We had an ugly blue stone patio that had become very dirty. We really never used the back patio and we felt the great views of the water were going to waste. We thought a great deal about the design we wanted, and the designers were very helpful with ideas too.” New gazebo: The new gazebo includes an outdoor TV and motorized retractable screens that raise and lower with a remote control. “Our favorite part of the space is the gazebo. We never realized what we had been missing by not spending any time in our backyard until we had the gazebo built. We have comfortable furniture out there, where we sit and play games together on our iPads. We also had large patio heaters installed so we can use it during the colder weather. It feels like we have added a whole other room to our home.” Deck and patio details: The project included new Timbertech composite decking, custom black aluminum railing, a fire pit and a concrete paver patio with seat walls and a built-in grill. “When we have people over, we sit by the fire 28 | May 29, 2012

pit, which is very enjoyable. I have even had friends over during the cooler days and we enjoy sitting out there.”

Final results: The homeowners noted, “We are very happy to be able to spend time at the back of the house now. We have a very nice backyard, as (we) spend a lot of time with the flowers and landscaping, and we live on a lake. We feel like we can appreciate that area much more now. It is a delight to be out there. We joke that we feel like we are out in the country when we are out there.” Larry Greene is the president of Case Design/Remodeling, a full-service design/build firm serving Hamilton County.
