Carmel seeing increase in number of burglaries – The City of Carmel is continuing to see an increase in the number of burglaries reported in the area. Most of them have been during daylight hours. According to city officials, suspects initially knock on doors to see if homeowners are present, then force their way inside if no one is home. Once inside, they have been taking money, jewelry and other valuables that can be removed from the home quickly. If the homeowners do answer the door, the suspects say that they are selling magazines, looking for a lost pet or create other false stories to explain their presence. If you witness this type of suspicious behavior in your neighborhood, contact the police department immediately. Carmel Parks to host vehicle exploration event – Carmel Clay Parks & Recreation will host a vehicle exploration event on July 25 from 10 a.m. to noon at the Carmel High School Stadium parking lot. Trucks and companies participating in the event include the Carmel Fire Dept., Carmel Circle City Cab and IndyCar Series. Admission is $3 per child.

CarmelFest Parade draws thousands, despite heat By Jordan Fischer • jordan@youarecurrent.com

An estimated 25,000 spectators came out Wednesday to watch the St.Vincent Health Fourth of July Parade at CarmelFest despite near record-setting 102 degree temperatures. The parade, which traveled from the rear of the 116th Street Marsh store to Carmel High School, featured 111 entries this year with more than 2,000 participants. Though no serious injuries were reported, 16 members of various youth marching bands

participating in the parade fainted and were subsequently treated for heat exhaustion. As a precaution, the youth were taken to area hospitals for further evaluation. As of press time, Carmel officials said the youth were all believed to be in fine condition. With temperatures expected to remain high, CFD Fire Marshal Bruce Knott stressed the importance of not ignoring heat-related illnesses. “Heat related emergencies sometimes are not taken seriously; if you start to feel ill or light headed, get out of the heat and have a person

stay with you until you get back to normal,” Knott said. “If you do not start to improve after a short time, please seek medical attention.” For more pictures of CarmelFest and the parade, please go online at www.currentincarmel.com.

Commentary by Lindsay Labas

Carmel Clay Parks & Recreation’s Extended School Enrichment (ESE) program has the job for you! Not only will you work for one of the premier parks departments in Indiana, but you receive a free membership to the Monon Community Center, right here in Carmel. The facility features a Fitness Center, Waterpark, Indoor Aquatics, Gymnasium, access to the Monon Greenway, and hundreds of recreation programs. The department offers competitive pay and convenient morning and afternoon shifts that fit into your schedule. Extended School Enrichment is a before and after school program for kindergarten thru sixth grade students in Carmel located at each of the eleven elementary schools. Facilitators within the program work directly with kids every day, impacting and enriching their lives. “You really don’t realize the effect working with kids has on you until you jump in and do it. It changes your life,” said Kayla Phillips, Facilitator at Towne Meadow Elementary. ESE Facilitators support kids throughout the day by tapping into their creativity and imagination and developing new and exciting club ideas implemented throughout the school year. Programs include everything from sidewalk chalk to

painting and dodgeball to just about anything you can think of! “One of the most rewarding aspects about this job is taking my interests and turning them into clubs,” stated Andrea Rubio, Facilitator at Mohawk Trails Elementary. Working with kids not only changes yours and the kids’ lives, but it gives you the power to change the world. As Basel Maarouf, Facilitator at Prairie Trace Elementary said, “When I work with kids, I feel like I am making an impact on their lives. They are the future of our country and our world, and it makes me feel so good to help turn the future into what it should be.” ESE provides a service to kids from all backgrounds, abilities, and nationalities.

Politics Tea Parties grow in Hamilton County COMMUNITY

Commentary by John Acceturro

Five years ago there were no Tea Party groups in Hamilton County; today there are three: the Constitutional Patriots, the Hamilton County Patriots, and the Tea Party of Hamilton County. The question is what has caused the Tea Party menu to grow in our county? In the last presidential election 38.5 percent of the voters in Hamilton County voted for Barrack Obama. This seems hard to believe since there are no Democrats in elected office in the Hamilton County, and Republicans rarely have any Democrat opposition in local elections. Dwight Lile, leader of the Constitutional Patriots, believes that Hamilton County has elected officials that call themselves Republican but govern as neo-conservatives with liberal social, economic and fiscal agendas. For example, Hamilton County is the richest county in Indiana but local government continues to look for more revenue and debt financing to feed spending. Many political leaders in local government also support Agenda 21 with its economic development program which mandates even what the outside and the inside of new developments must look like. Despite their actions, most incumbent politicians running for local offices call themselves conservatives. Ed Sides of the Hamilton County Patriots

believes that local Tea Party growth is related to the bad economy, excessive spending and constitutional infringements in Washington. It also seems that our local politicians running on a conservative agenda and governing as neo-conservatives has begun to worry many residents, especially as their net worth has been reduced to 1992 levels. Don’t expect to see these Tea Party groups go away, but rather for them to be working hard to get real conservative candidates elected to local government positions. These groups will also continue to run programs to educate voters about what is happening in local government and about the candidates that are running for office. Look for Tea Party groups and their leaders at local community events throughout the year. They will have their work cut out for them, especially with the entrenched politicians that continue to win reelection throughout our county. However the Tea Party and the conservative movement are here to stay in Hamilton County. John Acceturro is a Carmel resident and former member of the City of Carmel Common Council.

Bill and Mickey Atkins: A fond farewell. Mickey’s is very tiring,” said Mickey who has been an obstetric technician at Community Hospital North for four years. Throughout Mickey’s final weekend of live music which Bill dubbed their “farewell weekend,” a number of customers, regulars or otherwise, came into Mickey’s to pay their respects to this local institution. One such person, according to Bill, was a woman who had celebrated her 22nd birthday at Mickey’s and had such a great time that she just had to come back this year to celebrate her 40th. “I truly don’t think you could meet nicer people than our customers,” said Bill. “This last farewell weekend is something that Mick and I will always remember.”

Opinion Obama lacks grip on economics

Precious Indiana summers It is our position that we shouldn’t allow record heat and drought conditions to shrivel up summer fun. Indiana summers are far too beautiful and precious to watch them slip away from the confines of our homes because we dread venturing out into the heat. Who can be hot and bothered when there is fresh Indiana corn and cantaloupe to be eaten, garden tomatoes to be sliced, berries to be picked and fireflies to be chased? Hamilton and Boone counties are fortunate to have wonderful aquatic centers and free splash parks – a great way to keep the kids active and cool at the same time. What better excuse is there to visit your town square and indulge in a dish of ice cream, custard or frozen yogurt while listening to music or browsing art galleries? Those over 21 years of age can cool off on the shaded patios of one of many Indiana-based craft breweries, such as Flat 12 Bierwerks. We must brave the heat for churches, school programs and community services that depend on money raised from outdoor festivals and fairs to fund their programs for the entire year. Grab a hat, slather on some sunscreen, venture out and enjoy summer in Indiana!

Change and hope Commentary by Terry Anker Perhaps it is simple human nature. We dislike and disparage those who disagree with our take on a particular issue and tend to admire and regard those who seem to take our side in an argument. So, it has been particularly entertaining to watch as pundits and just-plain-old opinionated folk have reacted to the surprising outcome of the recent Supreme Court deliberation on the constitutionality of some provisions of the largely yet-to-be-implemented heath care reform act widely known as Obamacare. Chief Justice John Roberts sided with the liberal justices in supporting Obamacare, holding that it is a tax allowed under the Constitution. If we can net out the noise, Roberts seems to be the kind of judge who is singularly focused on the task at hand. He is rarely swayed by protestors seeking the “right” outcome and operates with regard to the Constitutional context and rule of existing law. I’d guess that Roberts is simply convinced that Congress maintains the power to tax the American peo-

ple as it sees fit and does not ascribe a belief that he is secretly making a ruling based on the desire to impose his view of social justice. His less predictable approach to decision making should lead to a generation of important, if volatile, moves by the high court. With the change made, we can only hope that Americans most in need are elevated by taxpayers’ additional contribution to the common good. And, we hope that any risk of program dependency and reduction in freedom and self-reliance is ameliorated by empowering citizens served by our national largess to break free of these bonds and become more productive and contributing members of the collective good using the money saved, and contributed by others, to pursue education and focus on opportunity for themselves and their progeny.

It should come as no surprise that we were bitterly disappointed with the Supreme Court’s recent decision on ObamaCare. We suspect many of you were, too. As our sour feelings abated – albeit in a very minor way – along came last Monday’s Wall Street Journal, and in it an opinion piece by Michael J. Boskin. He’s an economics professor at Stanford University and a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, and he also chaired the Council of Economic Advisers under former President George H.W. Bush (don’t hold that against him, please). Boskin wrote exactly what we’ve been thinking. In short: Pursuit of profits is critical to a robust economy; the recession’s end was more than three years ago, but recovery has been anemic; the majority of Americans are opposed to President Barack Obama’s economic policies; Obama claims that when he took office no one knew how dire the recession would be, which is untrue, because all the leading economists did; and the president’s record on jobs is lacking. As Boskin points out, “Perhaps we should not have expected more from the eloquent apostle of hope and change.” Obama’s autobiography, Boskin points out, states that during his brief time in business, he felt “like a spy behind enemy lines.” That. Just. Makes. Us. Shudder. We, like most, believe there will be a short battle royale in Congress over ObamaCare, but for those that oppose it we suspect it will be for naught. Change? America voted for it, and now America has it. We’re not quite sure this is what our founding fathers had in mind back at the signing party in Independence Hall. We hope and pray common sense prevails in the general election and the worst president in the nation’s history is shown the door.

Don't judge a book by its cover Commentary by Danielle Wilson Let’s do this, ladies. I speak of course of finally reading "Fifty Shades of Grey" by E.L. James. Summer’s here, the kids don’t need us, and what relationship couldn’t benefit from a heaping dose of Cholula? Here’s my proposal: If you haven’t read the book yet, read it with me. I’m taking the next two weeks to swim in the erotic fiction that my dad calls “filth.” (Sad but true. My 70-year-old father beat me to it.) Then I’ll write an article with my reactions and thoughts and include your comments as well. If you’ve already experienced the mania, feel free to email me your take. Think of me as Oprah with red hair. And if by some chance you’ve managed to avoid all media references to the Shades of Grey phenomena and haven’t a clue as to what I am referring, allow me to first encourage you to crawl out of whatever dark hole you’ve been hiding in for the past three months. Secondly, let me bring you up to speed. To my understanding, the "Shades of Grey" trilogy (yes, there are two more books should we crave more.) is the explicit S&M version of the Twilight series aimed at all the soccer moms who secretly took sides in the Edward versus Jacob rivalry (Team Edward, baby.). I guess Ms. James thinks that American suburbanites lead boring, predictable, conservative

lives, and are too Stepford to spice things up on our own. (Clearly she has never been to a Saturday morning yard sale with infant carriers on the line.) But I’ll play her game. If for no other reason than to see what all the hoopla is about. At least then I can form an opinion based on actual knowledge of the book, unlike some people I know who trash it without having even perused one page. You can’t judge a book by its cover or its coverage, my friends. That’s called ignorance. Bottom line for me: I like romance novels (Nora Roberts kills.), I like sexy movies (Mr. and Mrs. Smith stands as one of my all-time favorites, but I just saw This Means War and it was hot), and I like feeling that spark for my husband after twenty years of being together (without drugs or counseling, thank you very much). If "Shades of Grey" is an enjoyable read that ups the love ante, I’ll be a happy camper and gladly recommend it to my peeps. But it will be so much more fun if I have a group of ladies (and/or gentlemen; no gender bias here) with whom I can share. So hit your favorite book store, library or e-book dealer and let’s do this. Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may e-mail her at danielle@currentincarmel.com.

Where ‘routine’ = ‘weird’ Commentary by Mike Redmond

Next time you think about having gall bladder surgery, consider some advice from one who has recently done that: Be prepared for one of the weirder experiences of your life. Maybe it was just me. I was told repeatedly it’s a routine procedure; in my world, the word “routine” translates as “weird.” The day started out alright, if your version of alright includes arriving at the hospital at 5:30 a.m. “Gall bladder? You’ll be home on your sofa by noon,” said the optimist who checked me in. There are two responses. One: “Isn’t it marvelous we live in an age where surgery can be thought of as no big deal?” Two: “What the h-e-double-hockey-sticks are you talking about? Since when is removing an internal organ considered easy?” I went with the latter. My surgery went smoothly, as far as I know. All I remember is lying on the table with a breathing mask on my face and hearing, “Got a lot of belly here.” I was just about to say “I BEG your pardon,” when the lights went out and took my dignity with them. Dignity: there is no such thing when you are a patient. You’re dressed in thigh-high support hose and a gown that leaves your butt in the breeze. A simple act like going to the bathroom

is made into a nightmare by all the wires and tubes leading from a variety of body openings to a cluster of machines. With all that going on, it becomes obvious that dignity is for people who aren’t in the hospital. It helps to realize that you are in a building full of people whose butts are also in the breeze. Outside you may be King of Digadigadoo, but inside you are just another schmo with your saggy ol’ behind hanging out. The saving graces are nurses. Having seen countless saggy ol’ behinds, they couldn’t care less. This is comforting. Especially when you are drifting around at low altitude from painkillers. My nurses were wonderful. I’ve heard horror stories, but I’m going on my experience, which was made as good as possible by Margie, Leslie and Jess. At least, I think those were their names. Painkillers, remember. Now I am home with a bunch of incisions in my lot of belly, trying to return to my routine. And now it’s noon. Think I’ll go find the sofa. In truth, the surgery was easy, like the lady said. But that doesn’t mean I can’t milk it for a few naps.

CarmelFest – A Community Celebration

Right after the Declaration of Independence was approved by Congress in 1776, John Adams wrote to his wife that America's independence "ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more." … And, in Carmel, we have taken his words to heart. On July 3th & 4th, the colors of the day were red-whiteblue as over 50,000 attendees celebrated Independence Day in style at CarmelFest!

brought to you by

Celebrating our Freedom Keeping with our CarmelFest tradition, we celebrated Independence Day with a two-day festival, incredible music, entertaining performances, fun-filled rides & games, a grand parade, scrumptious foods, spectacular fireworks and more. It was (and is) always wonderful to celebrate as a community with family and friends. And it’s important to remember that we enjoy the liberty we have today because of all the brave souls who came before us, especially those who risked their lives and many who paid with their lives to ensure that we enjoy enduring freedom.

Dedicated Volunteers Shine at CarmelFest by Cindy Roberts-Greiner

Over 250 Area residents demonstrated their “Hoosier” hospitality and community pride by volunteering at CarmelFest. Despite the heat, cheerful volunteers were helpful to all festivalgoers. An extra special “Thanks” goes to Boy Scout Troop 112, under the leadership of Scott Hamachek. These hard-working scouts hauled ice to vendors throughout the festival. “They definitely made sure we all ‘kept our cool’.” In addition to all of the folks who worked during the Festival, there were plenty of people involved in the six-month planning process putting the event together. Under the leadership of Chairman, Jeff Worrell (with the help of his supportive spouse, Shari), the CarmelFest Committee – with the guidance of the Carmel Rotary Club - organized all the details to make the Festival a success. The CarmelFest Committee was lucky to have the talents of dedicated community leaders including Parade Co-Chairs – Peggy Powell & Bec Hunter and their incredible team of Parade Marshals; Public Relations & Sponsor Supporters – Joe Kempler, Jason Randlet, Robin Luehrmann & me (Cindy Roberts-Greiner); KidZone Chair – Peter Primason; Entertainment Planners – Sue Westermeier, Brian Carriger & Bryan Ferry; “CarmelFest Has Talent” Manager – Marnie Glanner aided by Susan, Mangus, Tatyana Komarova & Kim Gaskill; Operations & Facilities Folks – Gary Sexton, Jim Burrell, Kay Brunson, Mark Gabinet, Mike Jeter & Nick Kestner; Volunteer Chairs – Sally Bauer & Leanne Whitter; Carmel Rotary Club Leaders – Judy Hagan (President), Gary Frey (Board Member) & Cherie Piebes; Market Place Arrangers – Doug & Kay Thompson; Food Vendor Director - Jon Olson assisted by Robby Smith & Jay Kim; Admin Team – Paula Lord, Wendy Phillips; and Liasion between CarmelFest and Carmel’s 175th Celebration – Gayle Van Sessen.

The winning 2012 Spark Button number for the $500 prize was 12 529. To claim your prize, please contact Jeff Worrell at (317) 696-0162.

This list of supporters, committee members and volunteers is not complete – as there are too many people to name in one short article. To all helpers – please know that your hard work and dedication are appreciated by all of us.

“Ice Age: Continental Drift” – In theaters Friday, the Ice Age franchise returns with its fourth film. Manny, Diego and Sid start off a new adventure as their continent is set adrift and they are forced to use an iceberg as a ship.

(Left) Comedian Dave Attell performed at Morty’s last year and will be returning later this year. (Above) Pictures like this one of legendary comic George Carlin line the windows of the club.

How Morty’s Comedy Joint is redefining Northside comedy scene By Christian Sorrell • christian@youarecurrent.com In January 2010, Morty’s Comedy Joint, on Keystone Avenue along Carmel’s southern border, closed its doors. Several months later, a number of comedians and investors purchased the business and re-launched the club. During the past two years, Morty’s has gone from a formerly failing business to a burgeoning comedy club that not only brings national talent through its doors, but has also created a vibrant local community of growing comedians. Steve Hofstetter, co-owner of Morty’s and a comedian himself, credits a majority of the club’s newfound success to the formula of its four owners, which includes three working comedians, as well as the supHofstetter port of the local community. “I think it was a combination of everything really. The experience of a comedy club is so much more than just what’s on stage,” said Hofstetter. “From the moment they get out of their car, people need to be having a great time.”

Keeping this in mind, the exterior, interior and entire food and drink selection of the club have been revamped to be more immediately inviting and enjoyable. The exterior of the building features a number of America’s greatest comedians, while the interior is lined with classic vinyl comedy albums. There is more to the Morty’s makeover than simple appearance. Building a local community of unique comedy talent is also at the core of Morty’s new strategy. “We have a local talent night once a week, sometimes three nights a week, as well as a residency program,” said Hofstetter. “It doesn’t matter how good someone is. Without stage time, it doesn’t really matter, so we are sure to give (local Gardner comedians) that time.” According to Hofstetter, Mike Gardner is one such comedian. Not only has Morty’s embraced Gardner, a Carmel resident, as a headliner, they have also worked with him to include other local comedians in tours he has

planned himself. “If you don’t have good local talent, a comedy club is not sustainable,” said Hofstetter. Supporting Morty’s with this local talent, Hofstetter and his fellow co-owners have created something unique within Indianapolis’ relatively small comedy scene. Formerly dominated by Crackers, a comedy club founded locally in 1980, Hofstetter views the scene as something that can be developed greatly in the years to come. “With some of the country’s best comedy clubs within driving distance and our location, there is no reason that Indianapolis is not the hotbed of comedy in the Midwest, if not the entire country,” said Hofstetter. Hopefully with the right combination of talent, community and cooperation, it will be.

NIGHT & DAY Event Preview Civic kicks off 2012 young adult summer program Commentary by Cheri Dick Most area residents know how many talented high school athletes hail from Hamilton County. Do the names Josh McRoberts, Kevin Plawecki and Gary Harris ring a bell? But if you’ve ever attended one of the thrilling theatre performances presented by our area high schools, then you know that our community is rich in stage talent as well. And it’s about to get even better. That’s because Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre has launched one of the most diverse and inspiring young adult summer programs in the United States. It’s an in-depth, three-week theatre workshop for students ages 14 to 18 consisting of intensive rehearsals and specialized programs that culminate in a fully supported and professionally staffed production on the state-of-theart Tarkington stage. What teenager, who desires a moment in the spotlight, could ask for more? I want to call special attention to four components of Civic’s 2012 young adult summer program that might be of special interest to aspiring performers of all ages in your family: • “From Here to Broadway” will feature Lawrence North High School alum, Ben Davis, as he talks with workshop participants about his path from the northeast side of Indianapolis to the stages of Broadway. His message? If I can successfully make that journey, so can you! • Bill Jenkins, Chair of Ball State’s Department of Theatre and Dance, will tell students “How to Nail Your College Audition.” • “Resume Boot Camp” is a unique opportunity for the teens in your family to get help from industry professionals in preparing their performing arts resumes for college applications. And you don’t want to miss Civic Theatre’s young adult production of “Broadway Palooza – An Evening of Great Moments in Musical Theatre!” at 7:30 p.m. on July 27 and 28, starring many of the most talented teens in the region. You can find out more about dates, times and nominal charges (when applicable) for all of these young adult summer programs at www.

Standard weight loss over liposuction Commentary by Dr. Barry Eppley Q: I am a man that currently weighs around 320 lbs, am 6’2, and was wondering how much weight I could take safely off via liposuction. I am trying to lose weight and change my life around and I feel like this would give me a big mental boost and push me towards a healthier lifestyle. A: While I do not have the advantage of seeing what your body looks like, one important general concept about liposuction is that it is not a weight reduction method. Liposuction is for body contouring of select areas for people who are at or close to a reasonable weight for their height. Patients should have a relatively normal BMI (body mass index) or at the least a non-obese BMI which is anything under 30. With your BMI of 41, you need to consider standard weight reduction methods through medical approaches of diet, exercise and even supplemental medications. As a man you

should also realize that much of your abdominal weight is visceral or intraperitoneal, an area in which liposuction can not treat even if it were attempted. This is why the large stomach in many men feels hard like a watermelon. That is the fat pushing out the abdominal muscles from underneath, leaving a surprising limited of fat that could be removed between the skin and the muscles which is what liposuction can access. In addition, you are looking at your weight problem in reverse. You first need to get a healthier lifestyle, lose some weight, and then consider liposuction to clean up any persistent fat areas. This is a strategy that will have longer term benefits and is also more likely to keep the weight off. Dr. Eppley is an Indianapolis board-certified plastic surgeon.

Wellness Diabetes and you: Know the facts HEALTH

Commenatary by Dr. Sunil Juthani, MD Diabetes is a serious condition affecting 26 million Americans. Another 79 million people have pre-diabetes and are at risk for developing the disease. Diabetes occurs when there is a shortage of insulin in the body or when the body loses its ability to use insulin or both. Insulin lowers blood sugar and converts glucose (sugar) to energy. Too much sugar in the blood causes damage to organs. People with diabetes have a higher incidence of heart attack, stroke, kidney failure and a higher risk for amputation. Diabetes testing can be done at your doctor’s office. All adults should have basic diabetes testing at age 40. Earlier testing is recommended for: • Adults who are overweight/obese. • Those with one or more risk factors. Primary risk factors for diabetes are family history, pregnancy and ethnicity. African Americans and Hispanic Americans are two ethnic groups at higher risk. • Anyone with a history of smoking, high blood pressure or high cholesterol. Fasting blood sugar and hemoglobin A1C are two criteria used to diagnose pre-diabetes and diabetes. Normal fasting blood sugar should be less than 100 mg/dl. Readings of 100 to 125 mg/dl indicate pre-diabetes, and

readings of more than 125 mg/dl are consistent with diabetes. The hemoglobin A1C test, measuring the average amount of sugar in the blood over 60-90 days, is also used to diagnose diabetes. Hemoglobin A1C results of more than 6.5 percent indicate diabetes, while someone without diabetes will register an A1C of between 4 and 5.6 percent. People with pre-diabetes are generally encouraged by their doctors to lose between 5 and 7 percent of their body weight and exercise for at least 30 minutes five days a week. This may prevent the condition from progressing to diabetes. Today, doctors take a more patientcentered approach to treating those with diabetes that considers individual needs, preferences and tolerances. In addition to diet and lifestyle modifications, treatment options include oral diabetes medications, insulin injections and sometimes incretin mimetics – medications that signal the body to release insulin after eating. When doctors and patients work together, diabetes can be successfully managed and quality of life maintained. Sunil Juthani, MD, specializes in internal medicine. He is a guest columnist located at IU Health Physicians, Indiana University Health Saxony Hospital, 13100 136th St., in Fishers. He can be reached by calling the office at 317.678.3800.

Stay fresh – In summer, sweating is next to inevitable. Staying away from cotton undershirts, which trap moisture, and choosing aluminumfree deodorant are two steps to stay dry. - howto.menshealth.com Consider this – There are many ways to cope with stress, but one of the simplest is by following a stress-reducing diet. Carbohydrates – especially whole grains – increase levels of serotonin, a tranquilizing brain chemical. Foods high in Vitamin C, magnesium or Omega 3's also control stress hormones. - www.webmd.com Another reason – Veggies are an essential part of the diet, and a new study highlights yet another benefit of the food group: a lower risk of acute pancreatitis, a potentially life-threatening disease in which the pancreas's digestive enzymes cause the organ to eat itself. The researchers noted that those who ate more than four servings of vegetables a day were 44 percent less likely to develop the disease. - news.health.com

Insurance

Most homeowners’ policies cover dog bites Commentary by Andy Warren I’ve got a big friendly dog, but I’ve always worried about what would happen if she bit someone. Am I protected if something like this happens? – Billy S., Noblesville We all love our pets. They make great family members, playmates and protectors, but they are always causing problems for insurance companies. Almost two million people are bitten by dogs each year with around 800,000 of those folks requiring professional medical treatment. Each of these incidents is a potential lawsuit. A key factor that contributes to these incidents is the failure of dog owners to supervise and train their pets. Another problem is that many people, especially children, do not know how to behave around dogs. When you own a pet, you have a responsibility to raise and handle your pet in a manner that reduces the chances of an incident. Steps to take include researching your breed and general principles of ownership and care. You should always make certain that family members, neighbors, guests and strangers are protected from your pet. You should check out the resources available to help, such as tips from animal shelters, dog ownership clubs, and the AKA. Many insurers are choosing not to give dogs

or their owners a fair chance. It is becoming more common for companies to refuse to write coverage for people who own certain breeds of dogs. The breeds commonly excluded include chows, pit bulls, Akitas, Rottweilers and sharpeis. Therefore, you must fight this trend by not taking pet ownership lightly. The good news is, you’re probably already protected if you have a homeowner’s insurance policy. Just make sure you have adequate limits to protect you from financial damage if you have an incident like this. I recommend that everyone have a minimum liability limit of $1 million. Adding an extra million in coverage with an umbrella policy is also a good idea, and doesn’t cost as much as you might imagine. Your liability limit is not just for pet attacks, either. It protects you from many unfortunate incidents, like when a guest slips and falls in your driveway or when your kid accidently drives the lawn mower into the neighbor’s new Mercedes. Make sure you read your policy or go over it with your independent insurance agent to see what is excluded. Andy Warren is with Shepherd Insurance & Finanacial Services.

Just hang up on scams Commentary by Ken Colburn Had a phone call this morning (caller id was 510-943-3040) telling me that there are problems with my computer and asking me to turn it on and hook up to the internet. When I asked for proper authentication, he stated that he was a Certified Microsoft Technician. I told him I had extensive experience with computers & the line went dead. What’s up? - Roman This very clever scam is designed to allow cybercriminals to gain access to your computer for malicious purposes and has been in play for many years. If you fall for it, they convince you to allow them to remote into your computer to ‘fix the problems that they have detected’ with a heavy emphasis on ‘they’ being Microsoft. Often times they will try to convince you that a lot of your personal information has been exposed on the Internet (which is why they supposedly know you have been compromised) and they can remote in to protect you. If you allow this to happen, they can do just about anything they want to make you a vulnerable target or in some cases they pretend to have fixed the problem and ask you for your credit card number. This scam became popular about the same time that remote service became a popular option from legitimate service companies as a convenient way to solve problems. In general, getting help from someone you trust via the Internet is perfectly safe and secure, but the key is who called who. Microsoft has never, nor will it ever randomly call users out of the blue to offer assistance (they are way too busy helping the millions of people that call them every day). The only time that you will ever get a call from Microsoft is if you called them first and generated a case with them (they always give you a case number so you can always know it’s

them, if they call back). In the early days, these scam calls came from blocked numbers, but that always creates an immediate red flag, so they got more creative. They figured out that if a phone number comes up on your caller ID, you are more likely to believe they are from Microsoft. But, since law enforcement can trace the phone number if you give it to them, they scammers use a combination of caller ID spoofing, pay phones, disposable cell phones or stolen cell numbers to make the call. If you or anyone you know ever falls for this scam, it is essential that they take some immediate steps to mitigate any possible damage that can be done. The first thing to do is disconnect the computer from the Internet so that any hidden tracking/key logging programs can’t send out the information that it has gathered. The next thing to do is to go to a known clean computer and change the passcodes for all of your online accounts in case they were able to scrap your login information. You will also want to closely watch the activity of any credit card that you may have given them over the phone as ‘payment for their services’ or call your bank to have the card reissued. The final step is to have an experienced technical person do a complete examination of your computer to uncover any hidden malicious programs that may have been installed during the remote session. If you get this call in the future, just hang up on them or have fun with them since you know they are scammers . Start telling them the story of your life from when you were born and just keep talking until they hang up…it’s much more satisfying when you get them to hang up on you!

The Rocket, the Republic, and Romans 13 Commentary by Bob Walters There sure has been a lot of high-impact national legal news recently, what with the rulings on Obamacare, Arizona’s immigration issues, child punishment limits, and all. But prior to the Supreme Court launching its multi-headed, end-of-session jurisprudential howitzers and accompanying confusion into the national conversation late last month, an earlier story already had me thinking critically about truth, justice, and the American way: the federal “not guilty” verdict for legendary baseball pitcher Roger Clemens, aka, “the Rocket.” My initial reaction had and has nothing to do with baseball, Clemens’ celebrity, his accomplishments, whether he used performance enhancing drugs (PEDs), whether he lied to Congress, or whether he should be in baseball’s Hall of Fame. What caught my attention was how many media outlets bundled the Clemens “not guilty” verdict with similar PED verdicts for baseball’s Barry Bonds and cyclist Lance Armstrong, and reported those successful defenses as “losses” for the United States government. That gave me pause. First, because I question how a legal finding that exonerates a citizen is a “loss” for the republic. And second, because I think that God, not the government, is the only, proper, and final arbiter of truth and justice. Our secular government courts – whether by judge or jury – do the best they can to assess legal

vs. illegal, but nobody should assume that every American judicial decision is on a par with God’s righteousness. Secular justice is in the eye of the beholder; look at the O.J. trial, for heaven’s sake. Romans 13 tells us that God ordains governments, and that “the one in authority is God’s servant” (verse 4). I see plain and persistent evidence that the government and media are perpetually confused about who is the servant and who is God. Only God is God, and justice is His alone. When the media – however indirectly, absentmindedly, or irreverently – implies that government is the ultimate arbiter of justice, that’s a red flag. It’s a sign the media has succumbed to thinking that justice is Caesar’s (i.e., the government’s) rather than God’s. The overarching yet oh-so sublime problem is this: Government has no God, only people do. In Romans 13, Paul reminds us that we have to adjust to life and “justice” in this world, but not by forgetting God. Then in Philippians 3:20 Paul declares that for Christians our true citizenship is in heaven. That’s important to remember. As citizens, this life matters most when we understand that justice is God’s alone.

The Temples at Abu Simbel. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Monumental undertakings Commentary by Don Knebel

Ramses II, called “Ramses the Great” by history, is the pharaoh most often associated with the Exodus of the Hebrews from Egypt under the leadership of Moses. Although Ramses lived for 90 years and ruled Egypt for 66, he could not get enough of himself. And so, throughout his reign he built one after another monument to himself, many surviving for more than 3,000 years thanks not only to the extraordinary technology of his age but to that of our own. The most impressive monument Ramses built to himself is at Abu Simbel, then at the southern edge of his kingdom and now a short plane ride from Aswan. Skilled workers literally hollowed out a small mountain to create a multi-room temple both honoring Ramses and warning outsiders not even to consider invading a kingdom with such a powerful ruler. To make sure everyone got the message, four 65tall seated statues of Ramses were cut from the mountain at the temple’s entrance. Just inside, in a hall honoring Ramses’ military exploits,

eight columns also cut from the rock showed Ramses as the god Osiris. A temple to Nephertiti, the favorite of his many wives, was carved in a nearby mountain. Today, the water of Lake Nasser, formed in the Nile River by the Aswan High Dam, nearly covers the mountains at Abu Simbel in which Ramses carved his temples. Archaeologists initially proposed giving underwater tours. Fortunately, some clever engineers had a better idea. Beginning in 1964, they cut the temples, statues and surrounding rock into more than 10,000 blocks, some weighing 30 tons. They moved the numbered blocks to a site 200 feet higher and 600 feet further from the Nile and re-assembled them using a metal dome for support. Ramses II, the most prodigious builder in Egyptian history, would be proud.

Controlling your dog in a canine crowd

Commentary by John Mikesell

More and more folks walking their dog’s on the Monon. Lots of people in downtown Carmel with their pets. What do you do when your dog goes a little crazy around all of the other dogs here are a few suggestions. Five things to do when your dog goes bonkers over other dogs. Stay Calm: If you become angry, hysterical, loud, or violent, you only add to the stress that has put him over his emotional threshold. As horrifying as his display may be, your emotion only makes it worse for him. Try “square breathing”: breathe in for three seconds; hold for three seconds; breathe out for three seconds; hold for three seconds; repeat. Leave: When your dog is having a huge emotional outburst, the best thing you can do is take him away. He is emotionally out of control, and all your pleas to sit or lie down are fruitless; he literally is unable to process your cues. Create Distance: If you can’t leave for some reason, at least put distance between your dog and other dogs in the area. Most dogs have a threshold distance a distance at which they are able to maintain self control. It may be as close as 20 feet or as far as 100

yards-and may vary somewhat from one day to the next. Use a visual barrier: Most dog reactive dogs are most stimulated by the sight of another dog. Try putting a visual barrier between your dog and whatever causes him to become aroused. You can use your own body, stepping between him and the others. Or, train him to step behind you and sit when he sees another dog at a distance. Look for a hedge you can step behind with your dog, or a wall, fence, or building that will block his sight. If his arousal is a reaction to the sound of other dogs, try, Mutt Muffs, available at safeandsoundpets.com,to dampen the volume of sounds he can hear. Be carefull!.Neither will he be able to hear approaching vehicles, or other sounds that help to keep him safe. Teach him an emergency exit: Make this a fun game that you can play when there aren’t other dogs around. Your cue should be something that lends itself to happy play, such as “whee!” or “Runawaay!”.Teach it when your dog is waling with you on a

CANADA GOOSE CONTROL

leash by saying the cue in a loud, happy , high voice and then making a 180 degree turn and running as fast as you can in the opposite direction for at least 20 feet. Your dog should be galloping happily after you. When you stop, toss yummy treats. The goal is to give him such a positive association with his run away cue that he doesn’t think about getting aroused by the sight other dog who just popped out from behind a parked car. I must warn everyone again, is this extremely hot weather do not leave your dog in the care (or your children) unattended. It only takes a few minutes for the temp to reach over a Hundred degrees in the car. Be very careful when walking your dog, they live in air conditioning just like we do. They do not fair any better than we do. Keep plenty of water available for them at all times. John Mikesell, owner of Izzy’s Place, A dog Bakery in Carmel, can be reached at john.mikesell@att.net.

Indoors Introducing The All-New 2013

LEXUS RX The next chapter of utility vehicles.

Adding basement wet bar Remodeling by Larry Greene

ORIGINAL BASEMENT: This home is located in the Village of West Clay on the west side of Carmel. The current owners purchased the home in 2006 as a spec home with a finished basement. “The basement was considered “finished” by the builder in that it had drywall up and a bathroom, but it was not really a nice place to hang out. Even though we are empty nesters, we wanted to be able to use the space more.” WET BAR DETAILS: The new bar includes under cabinet and pendant lighting, a new Kohler black cast iron sink and a Moen Brantford faucet in oil rubbed bronze finish. The cabinetry is maple wood stained in a cordovan color with a licorice glaze. The floor tile is 13” x 13” porcelain tile in Ferrara Brown while the new tile backsplash is a glass copper mosaic mix with Kahlua cream colored grout. COUNTERTOP BUDGETING: “The granite countertops in the bar area hit the budget quite hard, but I talked with my friend who is a realtor, who told me that at the price point of our neighborhood, buyers would expect higher-end materials like granite. My first choice was an exotic granite but the cost was too high, so I chose another color. We decided to not put granite on the TV cabinet in order to keep within our budget. The solid surface countertop still looks great and adding molding to the stock cabinets gave them a high-end look.” 32 | July 10, 2012

TEST DRIVE THE ALL-NEW RX TODAY. With a driver-inspired design, intuitive technology and an innovative approach to performance, the RX not only created the category, it’s redefined it. NEW TV CABINET: A new built-in cabinet was designed and built to house the new TV including recessed lighting, thermo foil cabinets, new hardware and electrical outlets. “Building the cabinetry for the TV allowed us to install a surround sound system we already had but had not been using.” READY FOR GRANDCHILDREN: “We now envision our grandchildren coming down here even more than they already do. We always planned on adding a wet bar, and the plumbing was already set for it to go in the area we wanted it to be.”
