Plain talk

My mother’s special sneeze Commentary by Ward Degler

I think about my mother a lot this time of year. She would have been 100 years old last month. She was 86 when she died. The reason I think about her this time of year is because of all the dust and pollen in the air. It makes me sneeze several times a day. My mother had a special sneeze. It started in the bottoms of her feet, I think, and gradually worked its way up through her body. When it erupted, it was more like an explosion, and you could hear it a block away. Seriously. The guy across the street stopped in the middle of mowing his lawn once when my mother sneezed. He cocked his head trying to figure out what he heard. Then he shrugged and continued mowing. We always knew when Mom was working on a sneeze because she would suddenly stop whatever she was doing and stand perfectly still.

Then she would narrow her eyes as though trying to focus on some forgotten memory. We would watch, transfixed as she drew in a deep breath, closed her eyes and opened her mouth. She only sneezed once. Then she would tidy up her nose with a Kleenex and continue with whatever she had been doing before. I once asked her how it felt to sneeze like that and why she kept her mouth open. She said it felt like she was being turned inside out. “And I don’t dare close my mouth,” she said. “I’m afraid if I did, my face would blow off.” My sneezes are pretty robust too. I don’t think they are the caliber of my mother’s, but I keep my mouth open, just in case. Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife and dog.

Loebel named Associate Director of Zionsville Chamber – The Board of Directors of the Zionsville Chamber of Commerce have named Ms. Dusky Loebel as Associate Director. “Dusky brings strong organizational and communication skills to her position as the associate director for the Zionsville Chamber,” said Chamber President Bryan Traylor. “She also has extensive experience with local events and knows the people and places in our community very well.” Loebel most recently served as interim Loebel director of the Zionsville Chamber. She is also the current president of the Art in Hand Gallery, a Zionsville art cooperative, and was one of the original organizers of the Chamber’s Autumn Artscape event. “I am honored to be appointed associate director,” said Loebel.

Group yoga can improve motor function and balance in stroke survivors, even if they don’t begin yoga until six months or more after the stroke, according to “Post-Stroke Balance Improves With Yoga: A Pilot Study,” published July 26 in the journal Stroke. Forty-seven older adults, three-quarters of whom were male, participated in the study. They were divided into three secSchmid tions: One section engaged in twice-weekly group yoga for eight weeks; the second section met twice weekly for group yoga and was provided with a relaxation audio recording to use at least three times weekly; and the third section received usual medical care that included no rehabilitation. The yoga classes, taught by a registered yoga therapist, included modified yoga postures, relaxation and meditation. Classes grew more challenging each week. “For patients, like those in our study, natural recovery and acute rehabilitation therapy typically ends after six or, less frequently, 12 months,” said Regenstrief Institute investigator Arlene Schmid, Ph.D., OTR, a rehabilitation research scientist with the Center of Excellence on Implementing Evidence-Based Practice at the Richard Roudebush VA Medical Center and assistant professor of occupational therapy at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, who led the study. “We found that yoga exercises significantly extended rehabilitation beyond the first year after stroke.”

Travel

In Petra: Tales of the crypts

Commentary by Don Knebel

One of the most anticipated “surprises” in traveling is at the end of the siq, the narrow sandstone split that leads to Petra. After walking more than a mile between walls so high that only a sliver of sky can be seen, the tall façade of the “Treasury of the Pharaoh” suddenly appears, hewn from the cliff face and glowing pink in the sun. Pockmarks in the stone urn above the classic portico reflect the unsuccessful efforts of local Bedouins to get the gold they say the Pharaoh stored there after chasing the Israelites all the way from Egypt. Other legends say the rock Moses struck to get water is along the siq and the grave of Aaron is somewhere nearby. Although Moses and Aaron may have been close, there was never any money in the Treasury and the Pharaoh of the Exodus missed Petra by almost a thousand years. Petra was founded about 400 B.C. by the Nebateans at the center of the caravan routes then crisscrossing the Middle East. The “Treasury” was actually the tomb for a Nebatean king. A second impressive façade called the “Monastery,” reached by climbing steps through steep mountains, was another tomb. Petra has so many elaborately carved tombs that some people have speculated it was a city of the dead, reserved for burials and religious ceremonies. However, Petra

probably was home to 30,000 people, protected from enemies by the siq and nurtured by a system that captured water from flash floods. Petra was recently named one of the new Seven Wonders of the World and is definitely worth the trip. But don’t expect to find the impressive rooms and statues behind the Treasury’s façade shown in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

Cover story

ALL IN A DAY'S WORK Full-day kindergarten hits Zionsville, beginning the learning journey even earlier By Rebecca Hill • editorial@youarecurrent.com Full-day kindergarten has arrived in Zionsville, as 355 children are enrolled to attend the newly implemented program this month. Our town is not alone – similar increases in enrollment are also evident throughout the United States, where 74 percent of almost four million kindergarteners are enrolled in full-day kindergarten. The reason for the change? Researchers attribute it to the proliferation of single-parent families and two-working-parent families, plus the fact that increased emphasis on school accountability and rising state standards heightens the pressure to progress students academically. Eagle Elementary principal Christine Squier said she believes that Zionsville Community Schools’ move to full-day kindergarten is necessary, though she admits that in the past, a lack of overall uniformity in kindergarten meant that its curricula varied from school to school. Squier That is about to change, as kindergartens and other grades initiate compliance under new National Common Core standards. Those standards will unify curricula from state to state, but the key to developing a full-day kindergarten program, Squier says, is to remember that children learn at different rates. “Having the standards is good,” she said. “But standardizing the program is not necessarily good because you still need to make sure that you are meeting the child where they are developmentally and moving them forward. (At Eagle) we are still able to do that.”

What does full-day kindergarten entail? The full-day program expands school time from two and one-half hours to a five and one-half hour day. The typical school day will include lunch, recess and instructional time.

Union Elementary kindergarten teacher Ruth Ann Townsend said she is thrilled kindergarteners will spend more time in the classroom. A kindergarten teacher for six years, this will be her first year with the full-day variety. “Two years ago, Indiana decided each student needed a 90-minute literacy block and a 60-minute math block,” said ThompTownsend son. “But in half-day kindergarten, this was virtually impossible. Students had very little time to choose their own activities because their day was fully scheduled.” Now, Townsend says, there’s also time for self-selected activities along with art, music, science and physical education. She touts the model as adherent to the cognitive needs of kindergartenaged students, as well – children of kindergarten age generally have an attention span of 12 to 15 minutes. “We are excited we can bring this level of learning up for our students and do more activities and hands-on instruction,” she said. “Lessons are short and quick because they are kindergarteners; we will do at least three different activities in a time period.” Longer learning days have their benefits, as well. Research shows that students who attend full-day kindergarten have higher

reading and math assessment scores as well as higher fine motor skill assessments. Benefits aside, does full-day kindergarten rush students into school, pressuring them to succeed at an earlier level? Some critics concur, so the question becomes: Is greater academic focus in kindergarten the best means of preparing for first grade? Dr. Kyle Snow, co-author of School Readiness, Early Learning and the Transition to Kindergarten in the era of Accountability and the Director of the Center for Applied Research, National Association for the Education of Young Children says that full-day kindergarten definitely supports this bridge to first grade. Snow maintains that it is preparaSnow tion for the next year, just as all the years from birth through schooling play a role in a child’s progressive development. “Teaching children to read in kindergarten sounds very firstgrade-like,” he said. “But we know enough about how children learn to read that we can use kindergarten to foster ‘preliteracy’ or ‘early reading’ skills – things like recognizing letters and mapping speech sounds to letters.” At a base level, starting earlier simply means that students will have earlier interventions for existing learning problems. And for at-risk students, with added time comes added confidence from working in areas longer and participating in more activities that will enhance student learning, resulting, Townsend says, in “more success” in first grade and beyond.

How does it affect taxpayers? $80 million in grants for schools offering full-day kindergarten were approved in March, coupled with $310 million in previously undiscovered state funds. As of right now, "FDK" is fully funded, at no additional cost to the taxpayer.

“Teaching children to read in kindergarten sounds very first-grade like. But we know enough about how children learn to read that we can use kindergarten to foster ‘preliteracy’ or ‘early reading’ skills – things like recognizing letters and mapping speech sounds to letters.”

Opinion ‘Dragstars’ back for big fundraiser

A car is not a babysitter It is our position that children should never be left unattended in an automobile and the community must remain vigilant. The recent rash of incidents involving children being left alone in sweltering vehicles begs the question, “What was the parent thinking?” Ideally, parenting should be a selfless commitment. The reality is that parenting can be very inconvenient at times. Many parents shudder at the thought of chasing toddlers around the grocery store or dread the crying caused by waking a child out of a sound sleep to remove them from the car. Yet, we do it without a lot of hand-wringing because it’s part of being a responsible parent. An automobile should never be used as a babysitter. A locked car is not a safe-haven for children. Leaving a child in automobile is like putting them in an oven-like death trap. It does not even have to be hot outside for the temperature to rapidly escalate inside of a parked car. Is a peaceful shopping experience really worth risking the well-being of your child? The same holds true for pets. If you can’t take them with you, don’t leave them in the car - especially in this summer of record heat.

Buggy whips

Commentary by Terry Anker

It is amazing, really, how static we become as we age. Most of the folks from my generation still refer to “taping” something from television, even though the use of videotape has long been replaced by some digital recording device. Yet, why would we bother to learn the new vernacular? It is almost hard to imagine the number of words that are likely doomed to fade in the coming years. Will we still have car keys in two decades? Will pennies still jingle in our pockets? Will television even exist in any identifiable way, let alone the words used to describe trying to capture it for later review? But it is more than our unwillingness to accommodate modern, more accurate phraseology. So often, we fail to take steps to remain current in our thoughts and actions as we grow older. We cling to outdated and expensive cell phone contracts rather than considering a renegotiation. We refuse to bid our insurance or try a new restaurant for no reason,

other than “knowing” that an old plan is good enough. In a world where change is constant, can we survive without constant change? It is a struggle to stay current. Changing our computers, or cell phones, banks, doctors or service providers for business – they all take effort. They all take thought. And they all take time. So, how do we make it work? Like everything, isn’t it true that slow-and-steady wins the race? Every day, I try to read one article, meet with an expert, or learn about a new-and-better approach to something that I already do. If I’m lucky I can implement once a month, but the knowledge motivates and reduces resistance for whenever the time allows. Regardless, isn’t an open mind to opportunity better than closed?

Friday is an important day in the battle against Alzheimer’s disease. It marks the thirdannual Z’Sparkle Party Drag Race to End Alzheimer’s. The event, for which Amy Lacy and Leigh Ann Akard have done the heavy lifting, will take place from 7 to 10 p.m. on Main Street. Some of the community’s finest and bravest gentlemen, including town leaders, merchants, business owners and even a Firestone Indy Lights race driver will don dresses and high heels before parading and racing down Main Street. Instead of just speed, this race also tracks the amount of money collected by each “dragstar” and his pit crew. Participants collect donations and sponsors prior to the event, and continue collecting donations throughout the evening. This year’s race will include two groups: the “Flats,” who choose to wear running shoes, and the “Stilettos,” who will wobble their way to the finish line in high heels. At least one “dragstar” is expected to complete the race on two wheels. Other additions to this year’s event include live music provided by Henle and the Loops, an 11-piece band playing everything from Jimmy Buffett to James Brown. The group does not accept payment for its performance, and are instead donating its time and talents to the cause.

A successful ‘Plan B’

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

My husband and I recently renewed our wedding vows, and as weird as the whole experience turned out to be, I’m so glad we did. Here’s the skinny. To celebrate our fortieth birthdays, Doo wanted to vacation on the beach where we first met… with our four children and his parents. Yeah. Not exactly my idea of a romantic getaway. As any mom can testify, you can’t truly relax if you’re “on duty” the whole time. So, I tried to steer him towards a Belize rainforest package for two, but six airline tickets later, we were committed to “Family Va-cay 2012.” Disappointed, I quickly launched my Plan B: “We’re renewing our vows, babe, since you scheduled this trip over our anniversary. Make peace with it.” He reluctantly agreed. I tracked down a local gal on the internet to help me with the details, and then bought three linen shirts for the boys and two matching sundresses for the girls. That was the extent of my planning. Only, once we arrived, I got caught up in the swimming and snorkeling and quaintness of the small town with dodgy internet service, and fell in love with sharing this special place with my kids. (Doo had been right!) I didn’t contact my “wedding planner” until two days before the proposed event. Unfortunately, like in many tropically hot locations, logistics move at a much slower pace: She thought she had a minister lined up, she was

still working on a cake, and wouldn’t the massage parlor/gazebo make the perfect spot? Feeling slightly better once I realized I could remove the “1-Hour Massages Given Here” sign, and trusting that it would all work out in the end, I successfully kept the panic at bay until T-minus three hours. Maybe I should shower. Why didn’t I bring my defrizz cream? This bra is showing! What the frick am I doing? My daughters calmed me down and found an old deodorant stick for the “something borrowed” bit. When I came downstairs, self-conscious about my hair and dress and tan lines and wondering why on earth I’d thought renewing my vows would be so awesome, Doo looked at me and said, “You look beautiful; maybe we could just take pictures and skip the ceremony?” He was nervous, too! But do it we did. And it was lovely. And affirming. And surprisingly emotional. I honestly think the words meant more to me this time then they did 16 years ago. In the presence of our kids, Doo’s parents, the governor (AKA, the lastminute officiant), the coordinator, and a tiki bar singer who performed “Rhinestone Cowboy,” we said “I do” again. Happy fortieth to us! Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may e-mail her at danielle@currentincarmel.com.

Dry optimism

Rugged individualism Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

Despite the high divorce rate in this country, I am confident my wife will never send me packing. That’s because the packing I’m doing now is driving her crazy. As we prepare for carpet installation, Mary Ellen continues her meticulous approach to the task, carefully wrapping each knick-knack in newspaper or bubble wrap. My routine is quite different. I’m pretty much just scooping stuff off shelves and shoving it in boxes. Breakables? Give me a break. The good news is: I’m done. Everything is packed. The bad news is: I’m done. Everything is packed. You see, the carpet won’t be here for almost a month. We can survive three weeks without the Dresden China Ballerina that my mother gave us, but I’m starting to get a little edgy about no bar soap or bed sheets. My wife isn’t happy. “The system you’re employing isn’t even user-friendly. Let’s see… You have a giant box that says ‘junk,’ one labeled ‘doo-dads,’ and one marked ‘stuff.’ And what’s the box with the huge letter ‘C’ on it?” “That’s another method I use. Everything in the box starts with the letter C. Cameras, cancelled checks, can openers…” “That explains why I haven’t seen the cat in two days.”

Mary Ellen went on to say that I was behaving in the characteristically neurotic way in which I approach everything in life. I defended myself, of course. “I don’t think I am that compulsive. It’s true, all my shirt hangers have to face in the same direction, but my closet runs east and west so I can’t possibly…” “I am begging you not to finish this explanation. You’re really scaring me. You also put the condiments in the fridge in alphabetical order; and the weirdest thing is the way you arrange books on your office shelves.” “Wait a second. Lots of people have a special way of doing that.” “…By the authors’ first names?” Despite my wife’s complaints, she realized that, once all the boxes had been neatly piled in the garage, there was a whole lot less disorder in the house – kind of a nice feeling, she said. “Dick, let’s just sit on the couch, cuddle up, watch TV and enjoy our clutter-free home while it lasts.” “Why don’t we go to the movies instead?” I asked. “You packed the remote, didn’t you?”

Commentary by Mike Redmond

I try to be optimistic – it does not always come naturally for me. I am descended from a long line of pessimists, people who live by the maxim that whatever can go wrong will, and if you just wait, things are bound to get worse. That sort of upbringing can be hard to overcome. Especially during a drought, which you may have noticed, we are in. You have to go back to 1988 to find conditions similar to the ones we’re suffering now. Next stop after that is the 1950s. Here we are in 2012 with hot days, no rain, water restrictions and at least one bad case of heat rash. Okay, maybe too much information on that last one. But the point is that we are up to our ears in a bad summer. But still I try to be optimistic. I don’t think I have much of a choice. Despite the warnings of my ancestors, I can’t see how things can get much worse. I figure I might as well start looking for some good in the bad. After all, when you reach bottom, the smart thing to do is push off so you can make your way back up to the top. So let’s look on the bright side, shall we? Because of this drought: • We are saving untold millions in wear and tear on our lawnmowers. • Dog poop dries out extra fast.

• Nobody is complaining about the humidity. • TV weathermen have something new to panic about along with tornadoes and blizzards. • We can justify drinking copious amounts of, um, root beer in order to save water. • You get really interesting calls from friends asking you to bail them out because they got busted for watering the grass. I have ego issues but they don’t concern my lawn. I’ve never seen the sense in pouring all that work into something you can’t eat. Farmers irrigating? No problem with that at all. In fact, in my other life I’m an agri-businessman, so believe me, I am all for giving farmers every break they can get right now. So where does this leave us? Maybe we can learn important lessons about hardship and perspective. Yes, it’s a difficult time, but come on … It’s not like we’re in Ethiopia. We’ll get through this. In the meantime, I’ll meet you at the drug store. If I’m gonna stay optimistic, I’ll need some Gold Bond powder. And some root beer. Mike Redmond is an author, journalist, humorist and speaker.

HEALTH Wellness Younger adults seeking new answers for joint pain Commentary by R. Michael Meneghini Hip and knee replacement surgery has traditionally been associated with older adults – those beyond age 65. Today, however, people in their 40s and 50s are considering joint replacement surgery to relieve pain in order to stay active, continue their favorite activities, and maintain their quality of life. To serve this emerging younger population, extensive ongoing research designs cuttingedge orthopedic implants that are durable, have improved bearing services, and that will minimize risks and side effects. On the surgical side, techniques such as navigation technology, which monitors the position and alignment of the implant in relation to the patient’s anatomy, achieve improved mobility and range of motion for patients. Today, some 90 percent of knee replacements are expected to last 20 years or more. And, although hip and knee replacements are arguably two of the most successful surgeries in medicine, they are still invasive procedures accompanied by risks. For people of all ages, the best way to prevent degenerative joint disease and the need for joint replacement surgery is to stay physically fit and to maintain a healthy weight. Excessive weight puts

Senior living community holds caregiver relief contest editorial@youarecurrent.com Clare Bridge of Carmel, a Brookdale Senior Living retirement community, is holding an essay contest for caregivers as part of their Caregivers Relief Program.

undue pressure on the joints, causing degeneration. However, if joint pain and discomfort are already an issue, seek out a reputable orthopedic surgeon and schedule a consultation. (I discourage patients from using the internet as a resource, as it contains a lot of inaccurate and misleading information. Consult with a qualified and experienced orthopedic specialist instead.) After taking a complete medical history, the surgeon will perform an exam and order x-rays of the affected joints for evaluation. The x-rays will show the extent of cartilage loss and help determine whether joint replacement surgery is an immediate remedy or an option that should be considered down the road. The surgeon will also discuss how the joint pain impacts quality of life. In nearly all cases, orthopedic specialists will try non-operative treatments first, such as medication, injections and/or physical therapy. When warranted, hip and knee replacement surgery helps patients return to the activities and lifestyle they enjoy. R. Michael Meneghini, MD, specializes in orthopedic surgery.

Unfortunately this style of footwear offers little to no arch, heel, or lateral support and has recently been identified as a leading cause of foot pain.

Let the Luck begin

Commentary by David Cain

Andrew Luck, as the new kid in town, has the daunting task of filling the shoes of a legendary quarterback and simultaneously recreating the Indianapolis Colts as a winning franchise. Heralded as a champion before even taking the field, Luck is guaranteed a certain degree of success and failure. With Luck, journalists not only have a fresh story, but they will have hundreds of clichĂŠs, puns and adages using the words â&#x20AC;&#x153;luckâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;luckyâ&#x20AC;? at their disposal. From this point on, every story associated with the Colts will have an element of â&#x20AC;&#x153;luckâ&#x20AC;? to it. Of course, very little of Luckâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success will depend on actual â&#x20AC;&#x153;luck.â&#x20AC;? Almost his entire life, Luck has been relentlessly training and preparing to take the stage in ways that fans do not and cannot fathom. His success will occur, if at all, because of years of physical and mental preparation, one step and one day at a time. When he takes the field, Luck will succeed only as well as he has prepared. Successful companies follow a similar pattern as Andrew Luck. Business success is built and maintained through years of planning and

preparation, one step and one day at a time. The consuming public is unaware of the cost and effort that lead to success. Like Colts fans on game day, consumers expect an outstanding performance and a winning product or service every time, regardless of what it takes. Luck would admit that his preparation and ultimate success depends on selecting and trusting excellent trainers and coaches to teach fundamentals and to develop winning techniques and strategies. Similarly, successful businesses choose and utilize a close group of professional, trusted advisors that contribute to making and delivering the ultimate product or service. Like Luck on game day, businesses will face difficult challenges, but the planning and preparation will cause them to avert or mitigate any adverse consequences and to achieve a higher degree of success. The success may seem like â&#x20AC;&#x153;luck,â&#x20AC;? but it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.

Pizzology offers unique, delicious gourmet pizza By Rachel Ferry • editorial@youarecurrent.com There doesn’t seem to be a shortage of Italianinspired restaurants in and around town. I’ve had the pleasure of reviewing several and did NOT want to do an Italian review next. However, after eating at Pizzology, it definitely deserves a spotlight. I just can’t get enough of the Pizzology Chop Salad. This crisp, romaine lettuce salad with fire-oven roasted tomatoes, prosciutto, shallots and gorgonzola has the most delicious, fresh citronette dressing ever. The dressing is made with a smooth olive oil and the juice of a lemon that has been put in the 500 degree fire oven for just a few minutes to bring out the natural sugars. I have had the joy of dining at Pizzology four times this month and have sampled a few different appetizers and entrees. The fresh breadsticks are accompanied with two rich and flavorful sauces, the white being my favorite. When not in the mood for pizza, my entree was Italian Mussels which are perfectly steamed in white wine, salumi, olive oil and garlic. The signature pizzas are baked in a fire oven, leaving a wonderfully charred crust. My favorite is the Sausage Pizza with homemade sausage complimented by freshly shaved fennel, onion and peppadew peppers. The Old Kentucky Rome, a white sauce pizza with roasted figs, arugula, Kentucky-cured prosciutto and taleggio cheese, while different, is delicious. The pasta

Pizzology is located at 13190 Hazel Dell Parkway in Carmel. Entrees range in price from $10 to $30. For more information, call 844-2550 or visit pizzologyindy.com. (Submitted photo)

dishes are loaded with flavorful ingredients. The Spicy Shrimp Cappellini is indeed spicy, and the Spinach, Sausage & Pomodoro Cavatappi’s lighter flavor features sausage from the Smoking Goose. Keep in mind, each of the dishes are freshly prepared and are all worth the wait you may have for a table and the time for your dish to be served.

Eliminating tub for enlarged door-less shower Commentary by Larry Greene ORIGINAL MASTER BATH: This home is located in the Kings Mill subdivision on the west side of Carmel. The home was built in 1994 and the current owners have lived in the home for 13 years. REMOVING A TUB: The homeowner wanted to update the master in line with their lifestyle. “We wanted a bathroom that was compatible with our lifestyle. Easier to maintain - the less maintenance, the happier I am. I love stone/granite and wanted to have that in the bathroom.” The design focused on eliminating the large garden tub and making room for a larger shower. According to the owner, “We’ve had a Jacuzzi tub in every house we have owned and have never used them. We don’t miss the tub at all. We are on the go all the time and it takes too long to fill up. Also, the jets get moldy because we rarely use them. On top of that, everything in the bathroom was dated, ugly, and impractical. And, we could never get it to look clean.” SHOWER DETAILS: The walk-in and door less shower is the owner’s favorite part. “The shower is terrific - we wanted a great shower. The towel warmer and the heated floors are great, and my wife really likes having a ceiling fan. The heated floors are on a timer so they can be ready for me in the morning.” CABINET DETAILS: The homeowner decided to salvage part of the vanity area. “We kept the cabinets as they were only 6 years old, and had them painted. We also kept our mirrors, light fixtures, and toilet.” FINISH DETAILS: The homeowner loved the final results. “We

Before have placed photos of this project on our website, Houzz and Facebook so far. I talk about bringing luxury into your own home, and how the granite bench is like a piece of art. The larger rectangular tiles are a popular trend that we really enjoy also.”
