It’s not the sort of movie that declares itself to you and shows you everything about itself.

Leaders discuss heroin By Devynn Barnes • news@currentzionsville.com

Last week, elected officials from across Hamilton and Boone Counties and the state gathered together at Noblesville City Hall to crime discuss a growing issue in the community. U.S. Rep. Susan Brooks (RInd.) and State Sen. Jim Merritt brought together those on the frontlines of the Indiana drug war, in order to discuss the state’s increased heroin epidemic. “If society doesn’t see this as a problem they’re in for a huge wakeup call very soon,” Hamilton Country Sheriff Mark Bowen said. Brooks began the discussion by telling the panel, “I want to learn from you all what you are seeing,” acknowledging that heroin is “not just a big city problem.” Brooks said abuse of different prescription medicines is often the beginning of heroin addiction. In a study done by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, 81 percent of heroin users started with prescriptions. The pharmacists on the panel noted that they have seen an increase in pharmacy thefts. The fear is that dealers are getting young people hooked on prescription drugs and then turning them to heroin when their prescription habit gets too expensive. Madison County Prosecutor Rodney Cummings said that prison sentence times, a maximum of six years for these dealers,

is too short to deter them from the drugs. “The answer from the state is ‘put less people in prison,’” Cummings said. “The federal government could help out significantly.” Indianapolis Police Chief Rick Hite, who said he has seen this problem grow, also said, “We have to look at the root causes.” Catching dealers and increasing their penalties as well as detoxing and rehabbing users is the first step, but it seems to be easier said than done, and it all takes money. Lack of federal funds in the different departments combatting this crisis was the biggest grievance. “We’re going to go back and see what we should be focusing on,” Brooks said in closing, hoping that the meeting would bring awareness in the community.

Spend five minutes with Bill Spencer and your feet start to itch. You get the feeling you should get up and do something. PLAIN TALK Something positive, something that will benefit others. The dynamic head of The Narrow Gate Foundation has that effect on people. I watched it happen a couple weeks ago at the Marc Adams Woodworking School outside of Franklin, Ind., where a special weeklong class was underway. There in those cavernous buildings filled with woodworking equipment and the smells of sawdust and wood glue, 15 young men from the foundation and several dozen other woodworkers from all over the country painstakingly cut and assembled an intricate wooden box. When finished, each box would hold a leather-bound Bible, which the young men had already hand-tooled. The class, sponsored by Marc Adams, focused on one of several disciplines instituted by The Narrow Gate Foundation to help young men find their way in the world, to learn who they are and to discover their purpose in life. “Our society is flooded with young men who have no idea what they should be doing,” Spencer said during a brief interview after class. “As a result, they do nothing or make bad decisions.” Many wind up living aimlessly from day to day, he added. Those who find their way to The Narrow
Gate take on a minimum six-month commitment that starts with 30 days of roughing it in the wilderness. “Camping, hiking, surviving, sleeping in tents regardless of the weather exposes a person’s inner strength,” Spencer said. Other disciplines include leathercraf, metalworking and woodworking. Spencer had no idea his own path would lead to such a ministry. Until 2002 his world was music, first as a member of a gospel group and later as a backup singer, guitar player, road manager and ultimately publishing director for country music star Loretta Lynn in Nashville, Tenn. It was in Nashville that Spencer and his wife Stacy began what would become the Narrow Gate Foundation. It started with two young men that needed help. A year later they were working with seven. Since the foundation began in 2004, an estimated 300 men between the ages of 18 and 25 have gone through the program. The foundation operates out of a 122-acre rustic estate outside of Nashville where the Spencers see a bright future for a growing number of young men.

Christmas in the Village marketing By Devynn Barnes • news@currentzionsville.com
The Zionsville Town Council met last week to discuss marketing plans for this year’s Christmas in the Village. In a quick, town hall unanimous meeting, the consideration of an additional appropriation resolution from the food and beverage fund, for an amount of $10,000, was approved. This money will help the Chamber of Commerce promote the December event. The decision was brought to public hearing by town council president Jeff Papa before being motioned into approval. After no comments during the public hearing from the meeting attendees, the resolution turned back to the council. Counselor Candace Ulmer expressed concerns
about marketing the Christmas in the Village celebration with radio stations that already broadcast Zionsville advertisements, such as WITT. President of the Zionsville Chamber Board, Lesley Hunt, then took the floor to explain how the board plans to find the right radio stations for their marketing strategy. “We just look at the ratings to see what type of audience they have,” Hunt said. “We simply go by the numbers.” Hunt also explained how the type of audience ideal for marketing the Christmas in the Village is in an age range of 25 to 44 years old. The resolution was motioned, seconded, and passed in a unanimous decision. The next Town Council meeting will be held at 7 p.m., Aug. 4, in the Bev Harves Room of Zionsville Town Hall.
he Dieckmeyers had built their dream house in the country, so their long-time family home in needed to be sold. The timing was not awesome, though, as the housing market was in full recession at the point they first put it on the market with Jennifer. Luck was on their side, however, and the house was sold on land contract to a great young couple, relocating into the area. For two years, they were the perfect occupants who never missed a payment and made many improvements to the house. But…another relocation loomed for them, and it was decided mutually by all parties that the contract would be voided and the house resold. Jennifer took care of the paperwork and then re-launched the house to the market. This time, it sold for an excellent sales price in just three weeks! The delayed gratification on this one turned out beautifully for all parties in the end!

Back in the day Quilting bees were social events masquerading as work sessions popular from early settler times to the present times for women of Zionsville. Church groups or neighbors convened to piece and stitch quilts made from scraps of fabric saved by frugal housewives. Elaborate patterns with picturesque names were shared along with the latest community news. Modern versions of theses quilts will go on display at the SullivanMunce Cultural Center from July 11 to Sept. 27. The Calm and Collected Exhibit features quilts provided by The Charm Club and The Show Girls. (Submitted photo.)
“I wanted to be able to share a milkshake with my granddaughter again.” After my stroke, I had medical issues that made it impossible for me to go directly home. The people at the hospital told me about rehab and therapy available at Westminster Village North. My daughter visited the newly renovated health center and decided it was the place for me. My private Medicare suite was spacious and comfortable; and the staff really cared about my needs. My experience with rehabilitation therapy was superb. The equipment was brand new and the therapists were well-trained and helpful. I was eager to go home, but will always appreciate Westminster Village North. Now Sophie and I can enjoy that milkshake at my home again.

By Sophie Pappas • sophie@youarecurrent.com After more than 35 years in the executive retail world, and manning companies such as Hills Dept. Store, Toys R Us, COVER STORY and T.J. Maxx, Mike Heffner and his wife, Deanna, have settled in Zionsville. “We’ve lived all over the country,” Heffner said during one afternoon at the Lions Clubhouse. The clubhouse sits on Elm Street and overlooks Lions Park, a 22-acre public park owned and maintained by the Lions Club members of Zionsville. This is the club that Mike Heffner is now president of. “I’ve lived in 15 different places all over the country,” Heffner said. “But I knew I wanted to retire in Zionsville. And I knew this time I wanted to be a Lion.” For Heffner “this time” means his second retirement. Several years ago, Heffner, now 65, retired and settled in the village. But over time he realized retirement was too boring and that, in his words, he “retired too soon.” “Someone called me up and asked if I wanted to work, and I did,” Heffner said. “But this time I am really retired. Here we like the atmosphere of the small town. And my wife and I always liked Indianapolis over Chicago. Actually, my wife read an article about Christmas in Zionsville and that’s how we decided to come here.” Raised in the small town of Lima, Ohio, Heffner said he’s been transient his whole life, first because of his father’s work and then because of his work in retail.

“My work was very rewarding,” he said. “But I didn’t devote much time to community service. We never had children, so I was always able to be on the go. I worked and worked and worked.” Now that he and his wife are permanent residents in the Midwest, Heffner devotes his time to activities such as leading the Lions Club meetings and serving food at the Zionsville Food Pantry (every Friday, even if it means missing a Lions Club meeting.) “I never miss working at the pantry,” Heffner said. “It is my greatest joy.” Another one of Heffner’s favorite days of the
year is the VIP night of Fall Festival. “When I first heard about VIP night I thought it was for town leaders, from town council,” he said. “But it wasn’t about that at all.” VIP night is for the families of children with learning and physical disabilities. The festival and all of its rides and games are open and available free of charge for the families. “We partner with the Best Buddies club at the high school,” Heffner said. “And the looks on these kids’ faces is unbelievable. It’s a wonderful night and my favorite Lions event.”

FROM THE BACKSHOP Let’s not forget YAP for our town As summer marches on, we’re hopeful that the Zionsville Community Schools Board of Trustees will make a priority the investigation of whether to begin a youth-assistance program here. This is a subject about which one of our editors, Pete Smith, reported last month. The key elements appear to be: “Can we save kids? And can it be cost-effective?” We believe it is possible, having sponsored it and seen it work well in Westfield, where very few tax dollars are used to fund it. More than 400 kids’ lives have been reoriented in the right direction in the city to our northeast. It’s a beautiful thing when that happens. The program would include early intervention advocates that comb the town for ways to help children identified by our schools as at-risk. Symptoms, if you will, include: pronounced tardiness, absences, failure to submit homework and displaying passive-aggressive, and perhaps hostile, behavior. Since the program’s inception in Westfield, the graduation rate has soared to 98.4 percent. At the same time, there has been a decline of kids entering the juvenile-justice system. We’ve sat choked up while listening to kids who are in, or who have been through, the YAP program. Their stories of despair turned perseverance turned success is why the program exists. They are our future, and we believe it’s only proper to ensure that they carry a sense of worth and accomplishment into it. So at this point, the ball is in the schools’ collective court, if you will. What’s the move, folks? *** Major congratulations to the Zionsville Lions Club for organizing and staging another packed Fourth of July celebration! Nothing but positive comments have flowed our way in the aftermath, which underscores our decision for sponsorship of the event. The Lions have a great system going for this annual rite of summer, and we’re behind them all the way. Take a bow, folks!

Commentary by Danielle WIlson
Reunited and it feels so good Commentary by Terry Anker Growing up in rural Indiana, I was fortunate to attend the largest of the several high schools in the surrounding area. Still, it left my graduating class at about 180 kids or so. It seems kind of quaint today with increasing density and urbanization leading to annual matriculation numbers in the many hundreds. But many around the county found themselves part of considerably smaller groups. 75 or 80 per graduating class were not uncommon. Sometimes, the classes were even smaller. The debate in our fine state about the optimal size for a high school, or even a school corporation, may continue as it has uninterrupted for decades. Over the years, this column has addressed issues related to access to higher level coursework in countryside secondary schools and the costs associated with maintaining individual buildings, gymnasiums and transportation services for each discrete community. Yet like most of us, I remember my high school years with a
sense of some nostalgia. Sure, there were those moments of teen angst that left me imagining myself a character from “The Breakfast Club.” All in all, I look back on those times fondly and enjoy seeing my former classmates. This year commemorates a significant anniversary of our class’s completion. The plans were set and the invitations delivered. Unfortunately, news came this week that pathetic responses have reduced the scope of the event. It turns out that many folks have moved on, moved out and are not moved to come back. Many run from seeking a connection with old friends. Can we all walk the same path and yet end up in such different places? Can rose-colored glasses filter out the good memories for a few and the bad memories for others? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one.
–Elbert Hubbard
I have just had a small taste of the apocalypse, my friends, and I can say with some degree of confidence, the flavor humor leaves much to be desired. Months ago my husband Doo and I planned a vacation to his family’s lake house in northern Indiana. To help minimize the need for parental involvement, each of our four kids were allowed to invite one friend. Then Doo learned he had to work, so he was out, as was our oldest when his friend also needed to cancel. That left me with six children for four glorious days at a 100-year-old cottage with no competent boat driver. Good times! The first day went alright, though I may have, sort of, accidentally crashed the aforementioned boat into the pier before I realized it was just too choppy to be on the water. Oopsy. That night, however, all hell broke loose. I awoke around midnight to gale-force winds and tornado sirens, followed quickly by a power outage and the realization that my twins had just turned 13. Coincidence? I think not. Displaying unusual cool-headedness though, I herded short ones downstairs and away from the wall of lake-facing windows, found and distributed flashlights, and calmly wished my new teenagers a happy birthday. After an hour of Pop Tarts and Nintendo-DS playing, we all headed back to bed, confident we’d have electricity by morning. No dice. On my bike ride (the triathlon is looming!), I found tree branches and power lines down about a half-mile from the house in both directions, with nary a utility truck in sight. Ah well. Amish Day would just be arriving early this week. Only, Amish Day was soon pluralized, and the full extent of not having electricity began to take its toll. In addition to the obvious side effects of a power outage – no television for World Cup action, no way to charge cell phones and DS’s, no refrigeration for recently purchased high-quality frozen custard, and no high-octane coffee to assuage my caffeine addiction – we also had to contend with the unforeseen consequences, namely what happens when the water stops running. So here’s an LSAT question for you: If seven individuals must utilize only four toilets and each commode can only be flushed once until power is restored, how long before the noxious fumes and general nastiness force the occupants to cut their vacay short and head home? As it turns out, about 36 hours. That’s all we lasted, folks. Not even two days! In the event of the real apocalypse, it won’t be the zombies that do me in (I have teenagers, after all) but the lack of working and hygienic bathroom facilities. Peace out.

Call for an update Commentary by Dick Wolfsie According to a national research firm, most people over 75 do not own a cell phone. This is in contrast to the millennials who humor admit that the first thing they do in the morning and the last thing they do each night is check their mobile phone. It must be nice to have a strong bladder. To increase sales, cell phone companies are targeting the older demographic. Here’s a sales call that might take place between an account rep (AR) and somebody’s grandmother (SG): AR: Hello, I’m calling to see if we can interest you in a new mobile phone. How has your present phone been working out for you? SG: For 75 years, I’ve dialed and someone answered. If it rang, I answered it. Can you improve on that? AR: We’d like to introduce you to something different. It’s called a smart phone. SG: Are you there? You keep cutting out. What’s so smart about your phone? AR: You can carry it with you, at all times. SG: It must have a very long cord. What if I go shopping? AR: That’s the beauty of it – no cord. SG: No cord? You could lose a phone that way. AR: If you misplace it at home, you can call your cell phone with your other phone and you will hear it ring. SG: Wait a second, you want me to buy your
phone, but still keep my phone so I can use it to find your phone? This is not a great marketing plan. Where does the power come from to run the phone? AR: The phone has a battery and you have to plug it into the wall to recharge it. SG: Wait, I thought you didn’t need a cord. Hello, are you there? I keep losing you. AR: Sorry…the battery for the phone has to be charged or the device won’t work. SG: Okay. What else can it do? AR: You can just pick up the phone and say something like: “Siri, call my grandson.” SG: Well, my grandson has one of your phones. Haven’t heard from him in a week. AR: Don’t you see? You don’t have to dial. Just say the number or person you want to call. SG: Had one of those phones out in the country when I was a kid. ‘Elsie,’ I’d say, ‘get me 5555555.’ In a flash, my best friend was on the other end. Joe, I’m still not hearing you very well. SG: What brand is your phone? AR: We call it an iPhone. SG: What does the ‘i’ stand for? AR: Uh, I’m not sure. No one has ever asked me that before. I feel like an idiot.

Editor, I’m new to the area and have really enjoyed reading the Current in Zionsville publication. However, one thing that is getting old in my short time here is the “back shop too conservative” attacks from “moderates.” The first sign of someone who is most definitely not moderate is the way overplayed “Fox News” line. It’s liberalism 101 – disagree with someone who is not liberal, claim they spew Fox News agendas. I guess only liberals have original thoughts. But my real
point is this: 99 percent of any paper I’ve ever read is liberal-dominated. I read the publication and skip the opinion pieces if I find them “offensive” (which is rare since I consider all sides and views). So, Zionsville liberals- turn the channel! Just skip the Backshop and read the rest. It’s that simple. After all, it is THE VIEWS section. Respect a view that isn’t your own. And drop the Fox News bit. MSNBC anyone? Steve Carmichael, Zionsville

Editorials are fine
Editor, After reading another editorial from one of the readers about Current being a propaganda newspaper for “right wingers,” I couldn’t help but notice the choice of words in their editorials: right wing bias, misleading, misinformed, Fox News fueled, incredibly offensive, propaganda, thinly veiled racism, distortion of facts and out of control clown car. After reading it, I thought for sure it would be signed by Jay Carney or some other democratic “strategist.” It seems kind of ironic that someone would be implying Current is promoting “right wing” propaganda by reciting a bunch of “left wing” propaganda. It also has a feeling of telling people they disagree with to be quiet, which is also part of the liberal movement. Quite frankly, if you are offended by what has been in Current (1/4 of a page out of 40 pages?), then you were just looking for an excuse to be offended. In my opinion, they have been very easy on this administration. Considering that this is one of the most incompetent, arrogant and dishonest administrations of all
time, they deserve as much criticism as we can provide. It seems many people also have selective amnesia because they fail to remember the editorials that were critical of the Bush administration. They both deserve criticism, but we all know that the “mainstream media” only dishes it out to one side. Any media outlet that doesn’t fall in line with that philosophy is immediately considered “extreme” and condemned. Which brings me to the “Fox News” garbage we hear so much about. From morning until the talk shows begin in the evening, Fox News is the ONLY place on TV where you can get unbiased news. They hold both sides accountable as it should be. Every time I hear someone say Fox News lies, I ask for an example … any example, just one. I have yet to get one. And finally, I am not “pretending” to be unbiased when I am really a republican. I am an independent who has had enough of both sides. Bush was terrible and Obama is worse and people need to feel free to express their displeasure. Tom Gregg, Zionsville

Brooks’ concern for veterans just a soundbite Editor, I was wounded in Vietnam combat. I’ve used the VA’s services and found them to be as good as the private sector, which is a great compliment since U.S. Rep. Susan Brooks won’t adequately fund the VA. The VA was underfunded before “W” Bush slashed its budget while sending more people to war. The VA can’t keep good doctors and appointment times because Brooks and her colleagues pass meaningless bills and resolutions which only add to the VA’s financial
problems. If she cares about veterans, why did she vote against the jobs bill for veterans? Brooks sends out flyers at taxpayer expense bragging about how many times she voted against the Affordable Care Act – she considers that doing something? Brooks votes for every bill which sends more money to war and more money to spy on us here at home. Her interest in veterans will pass soon now that she’s had her sound bite. Michael Warner, 46033
Rep. Brooks’ stance on NSA spying is wrong Editor, On June 27 a coalition of 21 organizations from across the political spectrum launched StandAgainstSpying.org, an interactive website that grades members of Congress on what they have done – or, often, not done – to rein in the National Security Agency. Susan Brooks, Indiana’s 5th Congressional Representative, received a
grade of “F” from StandAgainstSpying.org because of her support to increase funding for the NSA. If you think that the NSA’s spying on you is no big deal, then, by all means, support Brooks this November. I, however, believe the NSA has greatly overstepped its authority and needs to be reined in. John Krom, 46060

Carmel graduate leads festival for fellow film lovers By Jospeh Knoop • joseph@currentincarmel.com Carmel graduate Craig Mince is looking forward to another successful year for the Indianapolis International Film Festival, now in his fourth year directing the event. movies Mince has also directed the Indianapolis IMAX Theater since 2009, and he said growing up in Carmel served as one launching point for his love of film. The original Carmel Theatre, Mince closed and razed in 1984, was where Mince first saw films like "Raiders of the Lost Ark", helping to spark a fascination with the medium. “I remember going to that theater all the time,” Mince said. “That’s where the whole ‘film as an experience’ thing took off and kind of where my love for movies started.” With Carmel’s relatively recent move into hosting arts events and incubating arts businesses, it’s been interesting to see the parallel between Mince’s life and his city’s fascination with art, Mince said. Mince became involved in the Indianapolis International Film Festival after former member Brian Owens stepped down. He was initially looking to fill a programming role when he joined the all-volunteer organization, but he eventually took on the directorial role and his helped to shape its current vision. This festival will feature filmmakers from more than 50 countries. “This year’s entire lineup is absolutely amazing,” he said. “There are awe-inspiring documentaries that will shake you to the core and lighthearted romantic comedies. Because we don’t have a niche audience that we speak to, there’s a theme that organically comes from the movies being made. This year’s theme is ‘coming of age.’” Mince said that the one of the festival’s main draws is the ability to see rare films that won’t be publicly available for months or even years. “These are films that will never pass through Indy theatrically,” he said. “Arthouse films, with the dynamic of distribution, will fly under the radar. It’s a really neat way to see these movies with like-minded individuals, and a fun opportunity to interact with the filmmakers. A big chunk of the filmmakers that made these films come to Indy to see the audience’s reaction.” The Indy Film Fest recently achieved its Kickstarter fundraising goal of $8,000, which helps to create even more opportunities for fans and creators to rub elbows by funding hotel rooms for the filmmakers. The festival runs July 17 through 26. For more information, visit www.indyfilmfest.org.
Five must-see films at Indianapolis International Film Festival Commentary by Christopher Lloyd
“I, Origins” – The festival’s opening night film is a mind-tripping doozy from writer/director Mike Cahill, who made “Another Earth” a few years back. Michael Pitt plays a molecular biologist who thinks he’s found the answer to the mysteries of the cosmos in his lover’s eyes. Think “Inception” meets “The Tree of Life.” (July 17) “Life After Beth” – The end of the festival offers a stark contrast to the beginning: the closing night film is a zombie romantic comedy featuring rising stars Dane DeHaan (“Chronicle”) and Aubrey Plaza (“Parks and Recreation”). Teenage romance blooms until Beth dies tragically … but then, miraculously, she comes back! And this time not only is she hungry for love, but also human flesh. Co-starring John C. Reilly and Anna Kendrick. (July 26) “Bluebird” – This bleak, mournful drama set in frigid Maine features Amy Morton as a school bus driver who makes a terrible mistake that imperils the life of a small boy and the stability of her entire family. Reminiscent of “Winter’s Bone.” The powerhouse cast includes John Slattery (“Mad Men”), Margo Martindale (“August: Osage County”), Adam Driver (“Girls”), Louisa Krause and Emily Meade. (July 24 and 26) “Tu Seras un Homme (You’ll Be a Man)” – A tender coming-ofage dramedy, this French film examines the growing friendship between a shy 10-year-old boy and the troublemaker 20-year-old who walks into his life and nudges him out of his shell. Heartwarming, funny and off-beat. (July 20 and 25) “Point and Shoot” – This fascinating documentary follows the harrowing real-life adventures of filmmaker/journalist Matthew VanDyke, who decided to go on a post-grad school motorcycle jaunt through the Arab countries for “a crash course in manhood.” Instead, he found himself a front-lines combatant in the Libyan revolution of 2011. Eventually he is captured and held in solitary confinement for six months. (July 21 and 26)

CCP presents ‘I Married an Angel’
By Jessica Fox • jessica@currentincarmel.com
The lesser-known musical “I Married an Angel” is coming to Carmel thanks to the Carmel Community Players, who hope to theatre wow audiences with their unique performance. The play’s producer Vince Accetturo said he believes it’s a hidden gem of musical theatre. “It’s an old musical that’s not done very often. It’s a very witty, fun show,” Accetturo said. Accetturo will be playing the part of Peter Mueller, the quirky sidekick of the lead male character Willie Perrin. Peter is often known for wearing bad toupees. The play begins with main character Willie breaking off an affair he has been having and swearing that he will not marry anyone unless she is an angel. He is surprised when at that moment an actual angel appears. Willie, who marries the angel, often becomes embarrassed by her abnormal ways including her inability to fib. Once the angel meets tavern owner Valarie Vincent she is introduced to how the real world works. Characters will be dressed in late 1930s era costumes and classic formal wear. In this performance tap, soft shoe and clas-
sic musical theatre dance will accompany the acting. The little angels of the cast are Ava Benvenutti, 11, Piper Williams, 12, Rachel Smith, 14, and Emma Hedrick, 14. The director said the personalities of their characters range from sweet to troublemaking – and one angel is even a little quirky. The young actresses are all from Carmel and surrounding cities like Fishers and Zionsville. As far as the performance itself, the angels agree it’s going really well and they believe it will be a hit. “We’ve all had really good character development and we can bond on and off stage. It’s really coming together as a whole show,” said Addy Monger, who plays the Angel Nanny, Lucinda. Lucinda is the nanny of the other angels. She keeps them on track and helps them to earn their bigger wings. “I Married an Angel” • Presented by Carmel Community Players • July 18 through Aug. 3 • Friday and Saturday shows start at 7:30 p.m.; Sunday shows will start at 2:30 p.m. • Carmel Community Playhouse in Clay Terrace Mall • Tickets are $17 • For more information call 815-9387

Divorce can cloud financial future Commentary by Joel Harris
Divorce is undoubtedly one of the most challenging and difficult experiences a person can face in their lifetime. finance With divorce comes an array of emotions, new responsibilities and a realization that you need to pick yourself up by the bootstraps and tackle the world alone. With so many questions still up in the air, one aspect of your life that you should make sure you’re in control of is your finances. Here’s a checklist of things to think about to help you pick up the pieces after a divorce: Estate planning One of the most overlooked aspects after a divorce is estate planning. People often forget to update the beneficiaries of their retirement accounts and life insurance policies. If your beneficiary forms are not changed, your ex-spouse may inherit a large portion of your assets in the event of your passing. Furthermore, seriously consider executing a new will or trust to prevent your former spouse from controlling the assets you want to leave to your children, grandchildren or a charity. Retirement planning With a divorce comes along a lot of unanswered questions about retirement planning. While you were married, your ex-spouse may have controlled the household budget, investments, life insurance policies and liabilities. Now all these responsibilities have been placed on your shoulders and it can be quite daunting to figure out where to start. Take your time to itemize your assets and liabilities after a divorce is finalized. Secondly, create a working budget around your new household income to make sure you get a handle of what’s coming in versus what’s going out. This may take some time and effort, but it will help you sleep better at night in the long run. If you’re inheriting an interest from your exspouse as part of a divorce, it is really important the transfer is done properly to avoid unnecessary taxes and penalties. Make sure you work with a competent financial professional to ensure the titling and transfer of assets is done in accordance with IRS regulations. Insurance planning
You should re-examine your life insurance, long term care and health insurance policies to make sure they meet your needs moving forward. Long term care insurance is especially important to review for women because they typically live longer than men and usually require more care in their latter years of life. Additionally, if your former spouse carried the health insurance, you may need to look at the private market for new coverage for you and any dependents. College planning for your children If your divorce decree requires you to contribute funds to pay for your children’s college education, look into accounts like 529 college savings plans to help you get started. Start with a systematic deposit program to set aside specific funds to help pay future education costs. Joint liabilities It is imperative to understand the potential joint credit and liabilities you may have with your spouse before the marriage ends. Attaining your credit report early on in the divorce process will help you identify what joint liabilities you have with your soon to be ex-spouse. Not only is this important to help sort out the divorce proceedings, but most importantly, it helps you have greater control of your credit score to make sure it isn’t compromised during the negotiations. Once the divorce is finalized, be sure you check your credit report again to ensure you are not financially attached to your former spouse. Social Security Planning If your marriage lasted more than 10 years and you never remarried, you may be eligible for up to 50 percent of your ex-spouse’s social security benefit at full retirement age. Furthermore, should he or she pass away, you may be eligible for their entire social security benefit under the survivor’s benefit provision. It is important to understand the nuances of social security before you elect your benefits, such as the income limits that could potentially reduce your benefits if you elect to take your social security early.

DISPATCHES Survey: Field of study more important than which university you attend – What you study – math and science are a plus – seems to matter more than whether your alma mater is public or private when it comes to finding a high-paying job after college. The survey of the class of 2008, by the National Center for Education Statistics, provides an interesting snapshot of the nation’s educated elite following a crushing economic recession: Overall, college grads reported lower unemployment rates compared with the national average, although black and Asian college graduates were twice as likely to be out of work than their white classmates. College grads from private four-year schools earned about the same as those from public four-year schools, about $50,000 a year. But while a paltry 16 percent of students took home degrees in science, technology, engineering or math, or STEM disciplines, those who did were paid significantly better – averaging $65,000 a year compared with $49,500 of graduates of other degrees. More than 95 percent of grads who studied computer and information sciences, for example, were employed full-time at the time of the survey and earned $72,600 on average. Engineering students reported similar job and salary prospects. That’s compared with a humanities graduate who was more likely to report working multiple jobs and earn a full-time salary averaging only $43,100. SOURCE: The Associated Press

In 2006, defensive lineman Brandon Noble almost lost a leg because of an infection from methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which can spread wellness through locker room contact. Locker rooms are one of the most overlooked health risks for high school, college and even professional athletes, not to mention fitness enthusiasts who use public or private gyms. Good locker room habits lower the risk of infections that pass from one person to the next, according to Tavio Henson, a strength and conditioning coach at IU Health Sports Performance. Henson has been convinced of that since his college microbiology class. “We cultured things like barbells, dumbbells and other training equipment,” he says. “It was pretty gross to learn all the things that popped up in that petri dish.” Henson offers tips to prevent the spread of infectious diseases with safe practices at the gym. Shower and wash your hands. Ideally, everyone should shower immediately after working out. When that’s not possible, Henson says you should thoroughly wash your face and hands all the way up to the elbows until you can get to a shower. Use your own soap and never share. He also encourages clients to wear gloves when working out with weights — and wash the
gloves immediately after they are used. Sanitize equipment before and after you use it. “Clean up after yourself, especially on cardio machines,” Henson says. If necessary, take your own towels and/or anti-bacterial solution or wipes. Don’t leave dirty laundry lying around. “When I was playing college football, we were encouraged to take our laundry home and wash it as soon as possible,” Henson says. Athletes who use equipment (think football) should clean it at least once a week. Wear flip-flops in locker and shower areas. Buy throw-aways or wash and sanitize them after each use. Locker room floors and showers are loaded with fungi looking for a foot where they can hitch a ride. Hold teammates accountable. “In college, we called each other down when someone didn’t throw dirty towels where they needed to be,” says Henson. “Accountability helps everyone do the right thing.” Expect schools, gyms and clubs to follow good sanitation practices. “Any facility where people train needs to be committed to excellence in this area,” says Henson. When a janitorial staff thinks they’ve done enough, sometimes they’re only getting started. How much is enough? Locker rooms should be cleaned and sanitized before, during and after use.

Top 10 must-haves for fall Commentary by Siro Derrer-Brooks, as told to Sophie Pappas Here are the top items that every European fashionista will be sporting this fall. Some of these items are classics, while others will encourage you to think outside of the norm. Fashion 1. A structured tote bag: Carrying multiple shoppers in different colors and sizes. 2. A single statement earring: Look for a drop that’s dripping in charms. 3. A sixties-inspired A-line dress: A shift shape that bells out from the body is key. 4. A tailored suit: This instantly pulled together outfit is long, lose fitting jacket also wear it with jeans. 5. A knit pant: If you’re brave buy the matching top and wear the full look head to toe. 6. A fur coat: Shearling, colored or leopard printed – real or faux – a fur coat or jacket is a must. We’ve seen this a lot on the runways prepping people for fall wardrobes. 7. A chunky soled boot: Clunky soles were the perfect foil for long, loose pants. 8. A pointed flat: The ultimate day to night shoe, wear a lace-less oxford version of a pointed flat. 9. A special sneaker: Look for special details like crazy colors, studs, metallics and unexpected. This isn’t what you would expect for fall, but every model is strutting bright sneakers with dresses and even crop tops. 10. Something glitter Choose a coat, a dress, a top or a shoe. The more sparkle and shine, the better.

COMING JULY 28 Empowering news and information or older adults (and their loved ones) in Hamilton and Boone counties. Eighteenth-century Bullring in Ronda, Spain (Photo by Don Knebel)
Ronda’s wings and rings
Commentary by Don Knebel
Ronda, a picturesque city in southern Spain, was once famous as the home of the first person to attempt to fly. Ronda is famous today as the home of the family that Travel invented modern bullfighting. Ronda, founded by Romans in the third century B.C., sits on a plateau split by a nearly 400 feet deep canyon carved by the Guadalevin River. When Muslims from North Africa conquered southern Spain in 711 A.D., Ronda became an important center of Islamic culture and learning. Abbas Ibn Firnas, one of the great polymaths of Islam’s Golden Age, was born in Ronda in 810. Among his inventions were corrective lenses, a method for cutting rock crystal, a water clock and a metronome to time his music. At age 65, he strapped feather-covered wings on his back and flew from a Cordoba mountain to a jarring, but otherwise safe, landing below. Protected by its strategic location, Ronda was not captured by Christian forces of the Reconquista until 1485. Its illustrious Islamic past was then forgotten as Muslims were driven from Spain. Modern Ronda visitors are not told about Abbas Ibn Firnas, but instead learn of Pedro
Romero, a Ronda bullfighter who popularized his grandfather’s novel idea of fighting bulls on foot using a gracefully maneuvered cape to conceal a sword for dispatching the bulls. Bullfighters previously killed from horseback, reflecting the hunting games from which bullfighting was apparently derived. Every September, the rich and famous come to Ronda for a week-long festival honoring Pedro Romero, who killed 5,600 bulls, and Francisco de la Goya, who painted bullfighters and designed Romero’s colorful outfits. Ronda’s 18th-century bullring, flanked by a statue of a bull poised to charge, now includes a museum of bullfighting. Nearby restaurants feature bull’s tail, an acquired taste. For his bullfighting exploits, Pedro Romero is honored by a statue in a Ronda park. For his frequent visits to Ronda’s bullfights, Orson Welles is honored in a Ronda street name. For being the first man to fly, Abbas Ibn Firnas, forgotten in Ronda, is honored with his name on a crater on the moon. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP.

This stunning pergola was the result of the retired homeowners determined quest for dappled shade coupled with enhanced outdoors privacy on their south-facing patio. If you own a home under similar circumstances, you appreciate the lack of livability as the summer sun relentlessly pounds the patio and bounces off the back walls of your home. Enjoying these blazing spaces is often not possible from noon on, without well thought shade solutions. SCALE Elegant brick and mortar columns to match the home with commanding 10’x10’ posts growing out of them into the 4”x12” oversized beams were necessary for this luxury home on Sagamore Golf Course. Obtaining the correct scale is always critical but especially so with large open spaces overlooking a fairway. As a bonus, the beefy lumber fueled more shade than normal and the overhead unit placement was maximized as well. Even the columns and posts contribute to the shade. The picture illustrates how a properly planned pergola can offer relief from the sun. Take a moment to study the shade produced on the patio and realize that the scorching feeling is considerably minimized and temperature more tolerable. The custom cedar lattice detail on the end will house a retractable shade that hides behind the overhead members. That, coupled with a climb-

ing clematis vine, will completely block the sun as it shifts below the site line of the pergola. It’s especially appreciated around dinnertime when its time to retreat from the day with a favorite beverage. Creating protection from the sun is one of our most frequent conversations we have with clients. Custom shade strategies vary for each project but have a similar feel. Pergolas, shade trees,
heavy drapes or blinds, custom lattice, shade sails, porch roofs (lanais) and other creative thoughts all have an important role in our quest.

Redesign a kitchen or bathroom on a budget Commentary by David Decker Planning a home remodel can sometimes be an overwhelming process. With all of the potential upgrades to consider, it’s no indoors wonder that the costs can seem like they add up quickly. But it’s important to remember that a redesign project can be as extensive as you make it. With careful planning, you can transform your kitchen or bathroom, even if you are following a strict budget. For the savvy shopper who is determined to upgrade your kitchen or bathroom space on a budget, here are a few tips that can help you make a change without breaking the bank. Appliances and fixtures: Old appliances can really date the look of your kitchen. Despite the popular myth, all of your appliances don’t have to necessarily match. You can update one appliance at a time, provided that you find a model that coordinates somehow with the others. Often matching the handles is the easiest way to add continuity between different appliances. If stainless steel is out of your price range, you can often find black or white colored appliances for much cheaper. Additionally, new sink fixtures can make a world of difference. Update your faucets or sink basins for a high impact update in either the kitchen or the bathroom. Resurface the cabinetry: Cabinetry endures quite a bit of wear and tear over the years, especially in the kitchen or bathroom. The fluctuating

temperatures, moisture and leftover messes can cause damage that washing and resurfacing the cabinets could easily repair. You could try to cut costs by resurfacing the cabinets yourself, or consult a professional to help you complete the work. You could also try swapping out your existing hardware and drawer pulls for new ones. Lighting: Lighting is an essential decorative element, especially in the home. Proper lighting
makes color more vibrant, while drastically affecting the energy of the room. Softer lighting will create a more elegant feel while bright lighting will make the room cheerful and inviting. Replace your old sconces or hanging fixtures with new ones that feature a different style. Make sure all of the lighting fixtures fit together cohesively to tie everything together into a complete look. New décor: Start with the basics, such as a new table or chairs set in the kitchen, or a different towel rack set in the bathroom. Decide whether your curtains, blinds and window decorations could benefit from an update. If you are redesigning on a tight budget, focus on the small details. Try changing out little touches such as display dishes, framed pictures or potted plants to make a big difference in the overall look of the room. The good news is about redesigning a space is that a few simple changes can completely reinvent the look of the room. If you’re on a tight budget, survey the room and prioritize the areas that really need the most work. See for yourself that a tight budget doesn’t have to keep you from creating a vibrant and user-friendly kitchen or bathroom space.
