Puthran has been the owner of an Allstate Insurance agency here in Carmel since 2000. He is an active member of Carmel’s Rotary Club and served as its President in 2010-2011. Puthran Puthran joins Jack Stafford, Bill Wiebenga, Jane Herndon, Rev. Patti Payntor, Jim Hehner and Jim Garretson on the seven member library board.

Happenings
Carmel magician performs benefit show for Cathedral grad By Bryan Gilmer • editorial@youarecurrent.com On Friday, Carmel-born illusionist Jared Sherlock held a charity performance for fellow Cathedral graduate Jay Ruckelshaus. The Ruckelshaus family experienced a great tragedy when their son, Jay, suffered a terrible spinal cord injury in 2011 due to a diving accident. Ruckelshaus was co-valedictorian of his high school class as well as a cross country runner, a swimmer, and a crew athlete. Unfortunately, the accident left Ruckelshaus paralyzed from the mid-chest down. Sherlock first became interested in illusions at a young age when he received a magic kit for Christmas from his grandparents. Although his first spontaneous performance was not spectacular, Sherlock remarked that the Christmas events “became an annual thing” with the whole family gathering together. Sherlock’s skill progressed from that point. “I did my brother’s birthday party”, said Jared, “and then his friends wanted me to do theirs, everything just picked up.” After joining the local chapter of the Society of Young Magicians Sherlock learned from older magicians and even held a full performance for fellow high school members at Cathedral. Now Sherlock owns a professional touring company based in Minneapolis. However, Sherlock does more than simply entertain the public. Through the Arts Now
Carmel native Jared Sherlock has turned his love of magic into a living foundation, Sherlock Studios contributes to local charities whenever possible. “Every major production that Sherlock Studios produces is partnered with a local charitable organization”, said Sherlock. Through Arts Now, Sherlock Studios has managed to raise more than $55,000 for various charities between central Indiana and central Minnesota, including the Boy Scouts of America and the Indiana Children’s Wish Foundation. Sherlock hopes that the proceeds from Friday’s event will help alleviate the strain from the Ruckelshaus family, with whom he was ac-

Business
La Mie Emilie to close its doors By Jordan Fischer • jordan@youarecurrent.com
La Mie Emilie’s pie- and French-cuisine-loving patrons have been dropping in to say their goodbyes this month after the announcement that the restaurant will close its doors Saturday. The French café and patisserie, owned by mother-daughter duo Cathy Egler and Emilie Myers, has served French fare in the Arts & Design District since August 2009. “It’s extremely bittersweet,” said Myers of the decision to close. “I’m sad to leave my regulars. I’m sad to say goodbye to something profitable. But, at the same time, I’m gaining free time and some normalcy to my 26-year-old life.” Egler and Myers decided to close the restaurant earlier this month, they said, to spend more time with Myers’ grandparents, whose health is failing. “Because over the last three years we’ve put in so much time and dedication to the restaurant, we haven’t had much free time,” Myers said. “So we thought, maybe it was time to take some time for ourselves and spend time with our family.” Because of the influx of well-wishers, Myers said the shop’s business has tripled since they announced the closing. “It’s been a fun ride,” said Egler. “I feel very fortunate to have spent almost every waking hour of the last three years laughing and singing and playing with my daughter. Not many mothers get to do that.”
Emilie Myers and Cathy Egle For those patrons who’ve asked about the possibility of Myers coming into their homes to cook for them – she’s not going to, she jokingly added – a cookbook featuring recipes from La Mie Emilie’s menu should be available by the end of August. Anyone wanting to get on the mailing list for it should contact Myers at emilie@laemilie.com. “We just want to say thank you,” Myers said. “Thank you for the support and the opinions and the laughs.”

Fire damages 150-year-old Carmel home By Jordan Fischer • jordan@youarecurrent.com A residential fire early Tuesday morning caused significant fire and smoke damage to the upper floors of a Carmel home.. At approximately 3:15 a.m., Carmel Fire Department Ambulance 46 was in the process of refueling near Shelborne Road and 126th Street when the crew smelled smoke in the area. Upon investigation, a residential fire was located on the 12000 block of Shelborne Road. Fire crews gained access to the property after forced entry to the driveway gate. Engine 42 was first to arrive and immediately started fire suppression operations. A second alarm was called due to fire involvement, outside temperatures, size of the residence and isolated residence
access. The Carmel Fire Department utilized additional fire apparatus and was also assisted with apparatus and crews from Indianapolis, Zionsville and Westfield. Tankers also responded from Zionsville and Brownsburg but were not needed. “The damage to the residence was severe,” according to CFD Fire Marshal Bruce Knott, “However, if it were not for the quick actions of the nearby ambulance that was refueling after another call, this would have been a total loss.” Early damage estimates to the home, which was reportedly built in the 1860s, exceed $200,000. The cause of the fire is still under investigation. The residence was unoccupied at the time of the fire.

Plain talk
Parade a gift to Carmel Commentary by Jeff Worrell An authentic gift is given with no expectation of receiving anything in return. That is why I like to refer to the St. Vincent Health Parade at CarmeFest as a genuine gift. A heartfelt, soulful contribution offered by your friends, neighbors and local merchants with no strings attached. Starting at the top by acknowledging the bottom line; no St. Vincent Health means no parade. For the last several years, St. Vincent Health has stepped up and underwritten the significant expense of producing the parade. St. Vincent Health, thank you for your generosity. And then there are our local businessmen and women, who at their own expense give their best effort to contribute to our celebration. Jeff Salsbury, Matt Frey and Mel the Mushroom are long-time contributors who help us hang on to the small town, local flavor of our parade. Perhaps you noticed this year the parade route was horse manure free. Not by choice as we love the fact that horse manure means horses but the extreme heat was too dangerous for all animal entries. Even Uncle Sam was missing for the first time EVER. Possibly the greatest triumph of this year’s parade was the response “to” and “from” the military Veterans in the Parade Grand Finale sponsored by ReMax/Legends. A CarmelFest tradition over the last several years, our beloved Veterans received an amazing response from you, the Carmel community. Mr. Phil Grabman of Greenfield, Indiana was one of the Vets
in the Grand Finale. A 24 year Marine was so overwhelmed by your response; he had to let us know. “With a street temp of 127 degrees, your citizens roughed it out and stayed for the entire parade. Everyone stood and respected the American Flag along with the military Vets. It was an honor to come to Carmel and be a part of a celebration where people showed respect and pride for their country.” But the true “Spark” behind the St. Vincent Health Parade are the volunteers working behind the scenes who do so unrecognized and without any public thanks. Led by the very talented and extremely dedicated Peggy Powell, the Parade Committee is Bec Hunter, Kurt Rupenthal, Paul McCarthy, Ray Kramp, Barbara Ellis, Paul Shulte, Jerry Stohler, Jim Burrell, Marty Habing, RoseMary Waters, Gena Hout and LeighAnn Clayton. Along with volunteers from Firestone and the Carmel Lions Club, it took 96 people just to manage the parade. I witnessed the clapping, the standing, the candy grab and families happily celebrating together along our own version of Main Street USA. There is no argument that our parade and the people behind it are a wonderful gift which should never be taken for granted. Jeff Worrell is a local businessman. He recognizes volunteers on “Connecting with Carmel” on cable channel 16. Contact him at jworrell@ advantagemedical.com
I'm from the government, I'm here to help you Commentary by Luci Snyder That’s a phrase that makes us either cringe or laugh but in this case, it’s going to make you proud. As a board member of the Hamilton County Humane Society, I was glad when their major fund raiser, Dog Day Afternoon, moved to Carmel where people are supportive and the crowds are large. People bring their dogs, walk the Monon and mingle, as we raise money for those who have no voice and no homes. This year, disaster struck. Through some mischance, the City double booked the Gazebo area … The Humane Society and a wedding. Which event would move? No contest! A bride intent on her perfect day will brook no interference. The City made the mistake and the city government, in the persons of Nancy Heck and Melanie Lentz, stepped in to save the day. The date of the event had to be changed and to try and compensate for all the work that change entailed, Nancy moved it to Center Green.
DOG DAY AFTERNOON Aug. 25 • 3 - 8 p.m. • Center Green
She and Melanie are providing four banners and an additional sign along Rangeline Road as well as space on the Merchant’s Square electronic sign. They are placing an ad in Current in Carmel and, since the time had to be moved to begin after the Farmer’s Market, they arranged for washrooms to be made available in the Tarkington along with cleaning and security services. So, we at the Humane Society and all who support our efforts, will never laugh again at the phrase….”I’m from the government and I’m here to help you.” We were lucky, they were wonderful and we all should be proud of our community.

4-H Queen Pageant Huber named 2012 4-H Fair Queen COMMUNITY
By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com
The final 4-H fair for any 10-year member is always memorable, but for Arcadia’s Sarah Huber, it was “shocking.” Huber was crowned the 2012 Hamilton County 4-H Fair Queen, beating out 22 other contestants. “When they first called my name I was really surprised and incredibly excited,” she said. “It’s such an incredible moment – it’s overwhelming.” Huber, the daughter of Doug and Bernie Huber, said the fact she was the newest county queen didn’t hit her until the following day when she thought about the gallery of Hamilton County 4-H queen photos hanging inside the fair office. “What an honor it is to be queen and have your picture up there,” she said. “It’s the crowning moment of my 4-H career.” Looking back at her 10 years as a member of the Huskey 4-H’ers 4-H Club, Huber said she’s really grown and knows how hard volunteers have helped her and other 4-H’ers. “I appreciate how much 4-H has taught me,” she said. Since this was her final fair as a participant, Huber said she was looking forward to handing out ribbons as queen and experiencing that “really exciting moment” when students get recognition for their hard work. “I get to go to shows I haven’t been to at the
5 DAYS ONLY!
Sarah Huber fair,” she said. “I’ll learn more about what it’s like to show animals and the process.” This year was Huber’s first time as a queen contestant. “I wanted to do it for several years but was so busy with volleyball,” she said. “My 4-H leader and mom encouraged me to participate.” The 4-H Fair Queen Court included Makaila Osborne of Sheridan, first runner-up; Christy Kettler of Westfield, second runner-up; Kelly Moorhous of Arcadia, third runner-up; and Kyleigh Kimbrell of Fishers, fourth runner-up and Miss Congeniality. “It’s even more fun to be with the girls on the court,” Huber said.

Cover story
Carmel native and Westfield grad Kendra Lancaster talks about preparing to represent the U.S. in the London 2012 Paralympic Games By Jordan Fischer • jordan@youarecurrent.com Karen Lancaster has simple advice for parents with handicapped or disabled children: “Never let them say ‘I can’t.’” In August, that attitude will be taking her oldest daughter, Kendra, to the London 2012 Paralympic Games, where she will join the U.S. Women’s Sitting Volleyball Team in competing for a gold medal. Kendra has worn a prosthesis on her left arm since childhood due to a congenital amputation. This year will be Kendra’s third trip to the Paralympic Games: she won a bronze medal with the team in 2004 at the Athens games, and a silver medal in 2008 at Beijing.
‘A fun kid to have’
“I remember as a little kid, when she was 3 or 4 years old, her grandma had bought one of those big wooden swing set kits and I was putting it together,” said Kent Lancaster, Kendra’s father and a Carmel native. “I put the rope swing and the ladder and the athletic ring on, thinking her friends would like it. I didn’t even think about Kendra. Well her mom and Kendra showed up and I hadn’t even finished putting the ladder on before Kendra was halfway up it. Then she grabbed that ring and swung herself around up onto it. I thought, ‘There’s nothing going to stop this kid.’” In school, Kendra “did everything,” according to her mother. “Everything” included soccer, basketball and, eventually, volleyball. “When she found volleyball in middle school, she kind of found what her true love was,” Karen said. “I always tried to push her toward soccer, because soccer for her would have been a little easier, but she wasn’t a big fan of soccer. She loved volleyball.” In high school at Westfield, where her family moved from Carmel when she was 3, Kendra played on the varsity volleyball team, and she continued her love of the sport into club leagues at Purdue University. “I was really lucky to have coaches that were willing to work with me on techniques,” Kendra said. “Even now, I’m having to make those adaptations because I can’t do things with my hands that my teammates with two hands can. It’s an extra challenge, but I don’t have any trouble meeting it. I just need some extra time.” Her sophomore year of college, one of those coaches suggested to Kendra that she try out for the U.S. Paralympic team. So, along with her mother, she flew to Colorado to attend a training camp. Until she got there, however, Kendra said she didn’t know the team played a sitting variant of the game. “Her whole life, she has never been quoteunquote handicapped,” Karen said. “I think that was just part of the way we raised her. She always played stand-up volleyball. I think she never identified as handicapped or disabled, and www.currentincarmel.com

first and just crying because I wanted to go home.” But, she said, her mother encouraged her to stick it out. “She was always supportive no matter what I

Kendra did stick with it, though, eventually being asked to join the team for the 2004 Paralympic Games in Athens, a season that was eyeopening for her, she said. “We were an underdog that year,” Kendra remembered. “We were so bad compared to the other teams that they just stomped us. So when we showed up and started beating the good teams, it surprised a lot of people.” The team took home the bronze medal on Kendra’s first Paralympic run and a silver medal in 2008. This year, she said, they have their eyes set on the top prize. “In 2004 we just wanted to medal, and even that was kind of a reach for us,” Kendra said. “This time around, I don’t think we’ll be satisfied with anything less than gold.” Kendra has spent most of her summer traveling back and forth from Edmond, Okla., where the team trains at the University of Central Oklahoma. Her mother, who works as a bus driver for the Westfield School System, has been fundraising to bring Kendra’s grandmother, her younger sister Kelsie and herself to watch the London games this fall. Though her mind is firmly set on the upcoming competition, Kendra has spared a few moments to think about life after London. “I’ve been thinking about when it will be time to retire and move on,” she said. “After my car accident last year, and it taking me out for a whole year, I’m not sure I’m ready to give it up after what it took me to get back into it.” Regardless, Kendra said she’ll be following her personal philosophy of trying to live in the moment. “Nothing’s going to stop me,” she said. “I’ll always find a way to do what I want.” July 24, 2012 | 13

Opinion
Brightpoint HQ
It is our position that the pending sale of locally-based cell phone distributor Brightpoint is a significant concern for the entire Central Indiana region. Certainly protection of jobs for the 1,300 workers in Plainfield is paramount, but even if headcount remains steady the loss will be felt throughout the community. Corporate headquarters provide much more than just a sense of local pride. Support of local philanthropy and leadership in community activities are concentrated around a company’s decision makers. When those decisions are being made in other states, as will happen when the Brightpoint sale is completed, corporate engagement will inevitably diminish. Even if most local jobs are initially preserved, the longer-term trend can be expected to disfavor Central Indiana. No doubt this area offers a competitive location for distribution hubs, but just as certainly Brightpoint CEO Bob Laikin wanted his facilities to be close to him and to benefit his community. Our home-court advantage will be absent when future decisions of this sort are being made in California. Mr. Laikin and his team are to be commended for the business they built and the local support they’ve shown. We hope that they continue to be involved and advocate on behalf of Central Indiana while other entrepreneurs fill any voids left by Brightpoint’s HQ relocation.

About the grain elevator remains …
Negative space Commentary by Terry Anker Decorators refer to it as negative space – the absence of something, often clutter, which in its void makes apparent the more sublime elements of the arrangement. The point is that the deficiency of distraction allows one to focus on the essential elements of our environs with greatest clarity. Such is the case with the emerging understanding of my eldest. Now participating in a program through his school that arranges and chaperones an annual exchange program with its sister school in Japan, he finds himself 16 years old and now residing with a host family half way around the globe. Yet thanks to the wonders of Internet communication and ubiquitous Wi-Fi, we are able to solicit a daily update on his travails. Food is first on his list of daily observations – for anyone who has experience with teenage boys this comes as no surprise. Then comes comment on architecture, culture and people. But this week, he Tweeted something to the world (a Tweet is
an Internet-posted comment that is visible to all of his followers and to millions more who prowl these locales) that highlights the lucidity that only comes from great distance. He discovered, as many have before him, that one travels to learn about other countries, but instead learns as much or more about their own. I am anxious to discover what he’s garnered. Did he find a new understanding of American exceptionalism; or instead, did he find an ancient culture more refined and transcendent than our own? Perhaps the depth of his insight will be limited to noticing that the Japanese eat more fish and less beef. Regardless, he is learning that much is gained from perspective. It inspires me to get outside of myself and try to gain a little distance from my own beliefs. Wish me luck. Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC.

Many of you have asked, and we have what we believe to be the correct answer, courtesy of our managing editor, Jordan Fischer. The question: Why hasn’t the rubble left by the demolition of the grain elevator in Midtown been removed? The answer: Because IDEM can't haul it off to a single dump, and there are traces of pesticides found by IDEM and the EPA. We still don’t understand the rush to demolish the elevator a couple months ago. Seems more study was prudent, but we’ll never know. For now, we’re left with an immutable pile of toxic junk. ••• Through our untrained political eyes, we view President Barack Obama actually defining what challenger Mitt Romney represents for and to the American people. If that truly is the case, Romney had best assert himself, or it’ll be lights out before the game ever begins. It’s something for all of us to watch. Tell us if you disagree. ••• A friend recently told us his daughter is fired up for school … which, for her, begins next Monday. She attends a private school, but, still, whatever happened to summer? Back in the day, which is how it should be today, we were out the first Friday in June, back the day after Labor Day. If this kid we know wanted to go to summer camp, for instance, she would have barely made it to the fourth of the traditional eight weeks – given most camps’ calendars. There is too much time off during the year. We believe 180 days can be achieved and still give the kids a full summer. ••• The Department of Energy, which was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil, has beefed up to 16,000 employees and an annual budget of $29.5 billion. Oh, and we now import oil more than ever. What a joke! Sounds like a “green” initiative to us. And how!

Sorry for the name calling, not stance Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Wow. I just returned from vacation where I was thankfully unable to access my e-mail, or should I say “hate mail.” I knew I’d upset some folks when I wrote a column on immunizations, I just didn’t think the response would be quite so intense. I haven’t received this much backlash since my controversial articles on homeschooling in 2009. [See Current archives for some fun reads!] I suppose when I attack parenting choices, however, I deserve it. That being said, I won’t apologize for my opinions on immunizations, though I will say I’m sorry for branding people who choose not to immunize as “idiots.” That was an unprofessional comment based purely on emotion. You certainly have the right to choose what’s best for your children, and like I said in the article, I support you 100 percent in that capacity. I don’t agree with your choice at all, but that doesn’t give me the right to call you an idiot, at least not in public. Most of the hate mail was from parents of autistic children, so let me address them first. I personally know several families with an autistic child. It is a devastating diagnosis and can drastically alter the lives of everyone involved. I don’t blame you for looking for a reason for why your child is different. I am surprised, however, that so many of you truly believe there is a global conspiracy among governments and pharmaceutical companies to not only suppress
any connection between immunizations and autism, but to possibly bring back the plague for population control and profit. Really? Clearly I have misjudged the CDC and Eli Lilly. And although most of the physicians and nurses who wrote in agreed with me, I did receive some negative comments from medical professionals, saying I knew nothing of science. “Why do you even care if your kids are vaccinated?” I care because even vaccinated children can get sick (that much I do know), and I really don’t want my household to be quarantined for a month because some unvaccinated kid brought measles to the local elementary school. Finally, let me remind all of you who constantly complain about my lack of professional journalism that I’M NOT A PROFESSIONAL JOURNALIST, nor do I claim to be! My column is posted under opinion or humor, not hard news. I write about what I think as a resident of Indianapolis suburbia. And contrary to what several readers believe, I don’t wear Prada or drive a Cadi, nor do I channel Hitler in my free time. I’m just an average working mom who frequently suffers from word vomit, the content of which occasionally warrants some hate mail. Peace out.

Carpet color options: beige, beige or beige Commentary by Dick Wolfsie We’ve always been envious of friends who have done it in every room of their house. So, we finally decided it was now or never: we were going to re-carpet our entire home. We had successfully avoided this huge hassle in the past by moving just as the carpet had worn out our welcome. Early in our relationship, we once moved when the fridge needed to be defrosted. We just couldn’t be bothered. We knew our carpet was dirty and disgusting when we started wiping our feet before going outside. Also, when friends came over for a cocktail, we told everyone it was a shag carpet. It really wasn’t. It just looked that way because we’ve had dogs and cats for 32 years. Sometimes I walked out of my bathroom while brushing my teeth in order to watch TV in my home office. There were a few toothpaste globs on the floor. I scraped them up now and then. They looked a lot like dinner mints. Once we made the decision to go ahead with the project, I stood at the bottom of the stairs and scanned the house. The immensity of the task overwhelmed me. I wondered if we really had to do the first and second floor at the same time. “Two stories in one day is a lot to cover, Mary Ellen.” “Isn’t that the attitude that got you demoted at Channel 8?”
When it was time to pick the color, Mary Ellen pretended she wanted my input, so she flung some carpet samples on the floor. “Help me decide between the bistro, buff, desert sun, kangaroo, ecru, fallow, fawn, russet, sepia, moose antler, tawny, sienna and Sahara. I want something that won’t stain when you walk into the living room eating your breakfast cereal.” “Do they have something in a nice Wheaties shade?” “Dick, this is hard work. Which color do you like?” “OK, beige.” “They’re all beige.” “See, that’s what made it so tough. Time for a beer.” Because I am cheap, I was looking for ways to cut corners. (Actually, the carpet installers do that for you at no extra charge.) The idea I came up with was to take the dozens of carpet samples we had and use them to create a patchwork of colors that would cover one entire room. Mary Ellen said that was the stupidest idea I ever had in our entire relationship. She’s so young to be losing her memory.

High school never ends Commentary by Mike Redmond
The evening ended as they always ended, with Monty Jo Strawser and me sitting on the sidelines making fun of things. We met where we left off 40 years ago, in the cafeteria, a room that somehow got smaller over the years. I remember it as being cavernous when I was a sophomore, so big that the entire student body could have lunch at the same time. It never occurred to me that this was possible not because the room was large, but because the student body was so small. There we sat and pretended to be certain of one another’s identities without looking at each other’s name tags while awaiting our first big event of the day: An aerial photograph of our class arranged in a “72,” our graduating year. This was a feature of our yearbook and the reunion committee thought it would be fun to do it again. Of course, the reunion committee did not know that it was going to be about 900 degrees that day, or that many of our classmates chose to skip the get-together in favor of the evening festivities at the Moose Lodge. The 2012 “72” was looking a little sparse, so the organizers started filling the gaps with spouses, dogs, strangers, whatever they could find. And then a small plane piloted by one of our classmates buzzed us and my brother P.D. made the pictures.
One of the photos appears to have me making an impolite hand gesture at my brother. Of course, I would never do such a thing, despite what he told Mom. I blame Photoshop. The evening began with a short remembrance of classmates who have graduated ahead of the rest of us – a bittersweet moment indeed – and then a short program emceed by one of the class smart alecks who shall remain nameless. We played Class Trivia – you know, questions like “What was our class motto?” Turns out I had it wrong all these years. I thought it was Lather, Rinse, Repeat. After that came dinner and then dancing and that brings us back to Monty Jo and me on the sidelines. The girls were dancing in a circle. The guys were standing around looking for their openings. And Monty Jo and I were in our customary place, pointing and laughing -- not so much at the people as at the fact that our dances were exactly like this 40 years ago. The only difference is this time we didn’t have a basketball game beforehand. Ah, high school. Frank Zappa was right. It never really ends, does it?

Bacon-wrapped Grilled Corn on the Cob Ingredients: 8 ears corn, 1 pound bacon, water, butcher string Directions: Expose the corn kernels by pulling back the husk. Do NOT remove the husk. Remove the corn silk. Put water in large container. Add corn. Soak for 30 minutes. Preheat grill to medium temperature. Remove soaked corn from
water and pat dry. Wrap strips of bacon around kernels on each ear. Fold the husks back over the bacon and kernels. Tie the husks down with butcher string. Repeat with all ears. Grill over medium heat, turning occasionally, for about 15 to 20 minutes. Cut the butcher string. Serve. - Food.com NORTH 317.814.4100 WEST
Wine Recommendation: 2010 Hubert Veneau Pouilly Fumé ($17) When serving this dish as a side for a more savory entrée, it is best for the wine to bridge the gap rather than highlight the side dish alone. This is particularly helpful when the dish is seasoned with balsamic herbs. Available in specialty stores. 20 | July 24, 2012

Tips for managing prescription medications Commentary by Mary Jean Vorwald
It’s a fact of life. As we age, it’s likely we will need medications to maintain good health. While prescription drugs prolong life by controlling chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer, it’s important to learn how to take them properly. Effectively managing your prescriptions not only improves compliance, but also helps prevent over-medication and harmful drug interactions. Taking medications, especially more than once daily, can be challenging. That’s why good medication management begins by partnering with your primary care doctor and a reliable local pharmacist. These professionals will help oversee your prescriptions and answer questions. Other tips for managing your prescriptions are: • Maintain an up-to-date list of all current medications. Include the drug name, dosage, frequency and diagnosis. Ensure at least one family member has a copy of the list. • Bring your medication list or, preferably, all of your pill bottles (including over-thecounter medications and supplements) to all doctor appointments, including specialist visits (eye doctor, dermatologist, etc.). • Notify your primary care doctor whenever medications change (for example, after visiting
a specialist, hospitalization or surgery). Your pharmacist can also help in this situation to prevent duplication or drug interactions. • Over-the-counter medications, supplements and vitamins affect the body even if they are labeled “natural” or “organic.” When taken with certain prescription medications, over-the-counter products can cause side effects or dangerous interactions. Always check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking any new over-the-counter medicines or supplements. • Watch for drug confusion with sound-alike names, look-alike pills and combination medications. Ideally, you should know both the brand name and generic name for each medication you are taking. • Work with your doctor and/or pharmacist to develop a schedule for taking medications and supplements. Some may need to be taken in the morning or with meals. Then use medication organizers, such as pill boxes, to make your regimen easier.

IU Health earns best in state, national honor roll By Jordan Fischer • jordan@youarecurrent.com Indiana University Health last week earned the distinction of being the first Hoosier healthcare system to be named to the U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals “Honor Roll.” The title is the top distinction given to the best medical centers across the country, as determined by the national news magazine. “These hospitals are the kinds of medical centers that should be on your list when you need the best care,” said U.S. News Health Rankings Editor, Avery Comarow. “They are where other hospitals send the toughest cases.” IU Health was named No. 16 on the U.S. News Best Hospitals “Honor Roll” and 11 clinical programs, including cancer, cardiology, neumore – Not only does lavender smell good, but there are many health benefits associated with the purple plant.

Are Married Parents Really Better for Children?
How many times have you heard a divorced (or soon to be divorced) parent state “We stayed together for the kids”? We hear it all the time. Even when recounting horrible acts of deceit, abuse or cheating, these people seemed to think that they were doing what was better for their children: Stay married.
For years researchers have been trying to find direct evidence as to whether it is better for parents to “suck it up” and stay together or divorce and move on. The evidence is divided. Many studies suggest that children of divorced parents are more likely to grow up poor, have behavioral problems or experience health problems. However, new studies are starting to address the quality of the family relationships. It has been found that the quality of the relationship between parents definitely matters. According to a study from the Center for Law and Social Policy, children who grow up in married families with high conflict experience lower emotional well-being than children who live in low-conflict families, and they may experience as many problems as children of divorced or never-married parents. Research indicates that marital conflict interferes with the quality of parenting. Furthermore, experiencing chronic conflict between married parents is inherently stressful for children, and children learn poor relationship skills from parents who aren’t able to solve problems amicably. When parents have a highly discordant relationship, children are often better off in the long run if their parents divorce. Between 30 and 40 percent of divorces of couples with children are preceded by a period of chronic discord between the parents. In these situations, children do better when their parents divorce than if they stay married. Most parents try their hardest to be the best parent they can be. We make many sacrifices in the name of raising our children to be happy, well-adjusted adults. No matter whether you are a single parent, divorced or married, one of the most important things you can do is to create happy, emotionally healthy homes for them to be raised.

Compression of realities Commentary by David Cain
Here’s a stunning reality, the iPhone is only five years old. The first version, now considered a relic, was introduced on January 9, 2007, and offered for sale on June 29, 2007. That little smart phone that now boasts sales in excess of 146 million units just turned five. In March of 2012, Encyclopedia Britannica announced it would not produce any new print editions. The 2010 edition is the last to be printed, ending a legacy that had continued since the first edition made its way to an information-starved world in 1768. Did Google replace Britannica’s print version or is it actually Wikipedia that stepped in the way? Regardless, the encyclopedias that graced the shelves of my childhood are now dusty artifacts for garage sales and antique malls perched next to the rotary dial phone.

redefined. It is like raising kids, when you are around them you don’t realize how big they are getting. Before you know it, they are adults. Our realities are compressing to the point where we’ve lost all perspective of the past. Our reality is evolving at the speed of technology, creating an elusive normality that once provided comfort. The key is to stay in the today. The fundamentals haven’t changed. People must still have meaningful relationships and establish connections. People still rely on other people. People still need products and services that add value. People still need to have human connections. People still need you but they are just expecting you to offer yourself faster and better than before. David Cain works at Magnitude, a sales and marketing company.

Illuminated Skin
Sometimes a slight change in your beauty routine can make all the difference. While many opt to smooth on foundation before applying concealer, the trick to achieving Kim Kardashian’s illuminated skin is to reverse the formula. Be sure to choose a concealer that is half a shade lighter than your natural skin tone, as anything too fair will look chalky. Dab the product right under your eyes and blend downward in a v-formation that lines up with the sides of your nose. You can also swipe a touch of the concealer along the bridge of your nose to give it a more contoured appearance. Then, fill in the rest of your face with a tinted moisturizer or lightweight foundation to blend any harsh edges and even out the rest of your skin. Call to schedule your personal makeup consultation session here at Salon 01. Our highly skilled estheticians can put together a formula that is ideal for your skin tone.

Metallic Shadow
A full smoky eye can look too heavy for the summer months, so opt for a single color in a deep bronze instead. This simple eye makeup can have a sultry feel, thanks to the shadow’s antiqued hue. When working with powder shadows, be sure to smooth on an eye primer before blending on the shade. This will add extra staying power, and make the product’s color really pop. Stop by Salon 01 and visit us to see the latest selection of Jane Iredale and our own Salon 01 brand makeup. Our eye shadows are light and contain SPF, which can help keep your skin safe all summer long.

The foundation of good design Commentary by Vicky Earley
The basic rules of proportion and scale are unchanging. They are reinterpreted according to the needs of the time. I like simplicity and I believe in restraint. Above all, there should be harmony-of proportion, line, color, and feeling. The most important element in decorating is the relationship between objects- in size, form, texture, color, and meaning. None of these is in good taste in itself but only in relationship to where it has been placed and what purpose it is to serve. – Eleanor McMillen Brown Interior design is about the big picture and the big picture works when it is the result of a carefully planned compilation of elements and principles. When the principles are spurned, there is a very good chance that a space will appear haphazard and chaotic. These principles are basic to all good design and must be treated with the respect they are due and should be altered only with care. • Balance: You will most likely feel if a room is unbalanced. Balance simply refers to the visual equilibrium of a room which is achieved by the placement of objects within a room according to visual weight. • Focus: This refers to the direction the eye travels and remains as it first enters a space. A multitude of focal points in a room make it quite uncomfortable, as there is no place
for the eye to rest. • Harmony: This is achieved when the elements of a room work together to form a visually pleasing cohesiveness with the proper balance of variety and unity. Harmony in design is similarity of components or objects. • Proportion: Ah, Proportion and his best friend Scale . This is something the real estate agent fails to mention when showing you a home with a two story great room. Technically, proportion refers to how the elements within an object relate to the object as a whole while scale relates to the size of an object compared to the space in which it is located. • Rhythm: The rhythm of a room controls the visual flow around a room. Rhythm allows the eyes to move around from one object to another and creates a harmonious atmosphere in a room. A family home that incorporates these is not unlike a painting … each color and brushstroke plays off another color. The result is a warm, inviting space for living.

Masada
Mountaintop experiences
Photo by Don Knebel
Commentary by Don Knebel For Herod the Great, the king of Judea at Jesus’ birth, Masada was a place to keep cool in the summer. For the people of modern Israel, Masada is a constant reminder of the courage of their ancestors and a symbol of their own determination. During his reign from about 36 to 4 B.C., Herod was a prodigious builder trying to improve the image of his little kingdom in the eyes of his bosses in Rome. The accomplishments of Herod’s engineers were remarkable. But none of Herod’s many building projects have had the lasting influence of Masada, rising 1,300 feet above the desert. At the top of this plateau, Herod built an elaborate city, complete with Roman baths, an underground reservoir and a summer palace overlooking the Dead Sea. The only way up to the fortified complex was a narrow “snake path.” In 66 A.D., Jewish revolutionaries captured Masada from the Romans. They and the families that joined them held out against a Roman siege
for seven years until engineers built an earthen ramp to the top and soldiers broke down the walls. According to Josephus, the first-century Jewish historian, the entering soldiers found all but seven of the 960 holdouts dead, killed by their own hands to avoid being taken alive. Today, a plaque at Masada reads: “What of us? What is our Masada? How much of all this will we take with us, and how much of our own will we add?” Since the time of Moshe Dayan, new members of the Israeli military have walked the snake path for a swearing-in ceremony among the ruins, which ends with a pledge that “Masada shall not fall again.” For everyone visiting Masada, the mountain top, now reachable by cable car, is a powerful reminder of the indomitable Jewish spirit and the universal yearning of people to be free.

The elephant in the room Commentary by Bob Walters
A thoughtful reader named Greg responded to a recent column and provided an elegant encapsulation of modern American secular narrative. In “The Rocket, the Republic, and Romans 13” (July 10), I went on about faith and how God’s truth and justice is superior to man’s or government’s or the U.S. Supreme Court’s truth and justice. This column’s customary italic epigram stated that “God’s truth and justice is the American way,” and that “we are losing our way.” Greg, in erudite disagreement, wrote “it’s the person whose bias is that his/her own god(s)’s truth and justice is the American way who has lost his/her own way.” So, that would be me. Greg argues for the “aggregate ways of individual Americans,” a “consensual social contract,” that knowledge is “justified belief,” that truth is merely “human sensory witness” and that faith is a theocratic “presumed socio-political prerogative.” In other words truth, like America, is a collection of secular parts. It was a great email, eloquently stated. It intended to obviate God’s place in the “American Way” conversation, which secular America is desperate to do. I thanked Greg and asked what he considered to be “truth,” and whether or not “hope” was a proper aim of democracy. I loved Greg’s response. Greg related the oft-cited “Elephant story,” where four blindfolded people – a father and
three sons – touch a different part of an elephant and think it is four different things. Since the father touched the trunk and thought it was a snake, he forced his will on the sons who thought they had touched a bird (ear), a tree (leg), and a rope (tail). Dad had the power … dad said it was a snake … so, it was – incorrectly – a snake. Greg’s point is that truth and faith are matters of opinion depending upon which part of the elephant we touch. And “power” should never determine whether “truth” is a snake, ear, tree, or whatever: you cannot force truth … or faith, belief, or love, for that matter. But the “snake” conclusion is a perfect, multi-entendre picture of secularized philosophy, academia, politics, culture, and justice getting it completely wrong. Here’s why: The family grasped the parts, but missed the elephant. Truth is a whole thing that a real God presented to a fallen world in the real person of Jesus Christ. And while an elephant is big, God is bigger. I want American ideals and my faith to be bigger and stronger than any part of an elephant; not as small and weak as manmade truth. To perpetuate that bigness, God’s truth -not man’s opinion- is our greatest hope.

Gardener stumped by color
&
Hilliary Co.
Commentary by Holly Lindzy
By far one of the most adaptable summer flowering shrubs is the Rose of Sharon – glossy foliage, beautiful bloom, easy care and quick to fill a space. It’s an Indiana summer staple. And I had to have one. Throughout the years, time and again, I would go to purchase one for my garden and get stumped on color selection. Every time. White, purple, blue-purple, pink . . . what’s a girl to do? Years passed, gardens evolved – minus the Rose of Sharon. In catalogs I would see “Tri Color Rose of Sharon!”, like it was some hot commodity which meant it was trending and that’s not my style, so I’d pass. What’s “hot right now” is of little interest to me. Then one day I was working in a yard of a friend removing some plants to put in three good sized Serviceberry. Part of the removal included some one-foot-tall volunteers from a nearby Rose of Sharon, of which I had no clue the color. On a whim, I set them in a bucket to take with me. There’s no crime in that – right? So, home I toted two decent starts of the unknown Rose of Sharon, planted them in the corner of my garden and watched them grow, green and perky, to about three feet that first
“A head to toe salon.” (Formerly Fine Lines, on Main St. and Guilford Ave.)
Same great staff. Same great location.
Rose of Sharon year. Next summer, to my delight, it bloomed in two colors – white and purple. It couldn’t be more appropriate. Now every year I look forward to seeing my “bi-color” surprise Rose of Sharon, and retelling the story. No more indecision and angst. Like closing your eyes and dropping a finger in the phone book, I threw caution to the wind and left it to chance. And now it’s all mine. Sort of.

Late start – Spring is generally the time to plant new things and let them grow, but if you got a late start, there are still several plants that bloom during the summer. Potentilla, butterfly bush, and crape myrtle are just a few examples. - bhg.com

New cosmetic kitchen remodel Commentary by Larry Greene ORIGINAL KITCHEN: This home is located in the Huntington Chase subdivision on the west side of Carmel. The current owners built the home in 1996 as a spec home with the current kitchen as is. REASONS FOR REMODELING: According to the owner, “We remodeled the kitchen for three reasons: the lighting, the flooring and the storage space. The original lighting was not adequate, as there was no lighting over the peninsula or under cabinet lighting, so it was very hard to work in the kitchen. The original tile floors were cracking and the grout was coming out. It turns out that one side of the kitchen was 5/8” lower than the other side. The subflooring was installed incorrectly and making the tile crack. Finally, the existing kitchen storage was minimal, so I had to store many of my kitchen items in the basement. There was a pantry, but there was no space for pots and pans etc.” MORE STORAGE WITH CABINETRY: The homeowner is thrilled with the additional storage space. “My favorite part of the remodel is the cabinets we had built. I wanted more storage in the kitchen, but I did not want to have another piece of furniture that did not fit with the kitchen. Having the cabinetry built to be cohesive with the other cabinets gave me the look and storage that I wanted. We also really like the addition of the bench, coat hooks and shelves

in the entryway to the kitchen. It has made a big impact on the way we live in the house, as we have a place for coats, gloves, family calendar and papers. All of the additional storage now allows me to keep kitchen essentials in the kitchen, rather than the basement.
FINISH DETAILS: The homeowner also enjoys the new functionality. “The granite countertops give me additional serving space, while allowing me the peninsula for prep space. We added many electrical outlets to the new cabinet areas too, which help a great deal when we are entertaining. The new peninsula and under-cabinet lighting has greatly improved the kitchen as well. It is much easier to work in there, and the area is much less dreary.” Larry Greene is the president of Case Design/Remodeling, a full-service design/build firm serving Hamilton County.
