After 25 years at Merchant Square, Ad-amson’s Karate Studios has moved itself to a new location on Rangeline Road.

The Carmel location, operated by John Adamson, is a spinoff of the 35-year-old family business started by his father, Doug. Its new home formerly housed Grape Inspirations Winery, which closed after the nearby Dunkin’ Donuts caught fire in 2010, damaging much of the Carmel Walk strip mall.

“My father’s school was one of the first to open in Indianapolis,” Adamson said. “He was training with a guy named Bill Wallace in the mid 1960s. Bill left town to teach karate to Elvis Presley, and that left the dojo to my father and one other guy.”

Since then, the business has opened six locations, including studios in Avon, Brownsburg and Noblesville.

The younger Adamson decided to follow his father’s footsteps and pursue a career teaching karate after finishing a seven-year run on the U.S. Karate Team. He remains an assistant coach for the AAU national team.

Adamson said the business took advan-tage of the move to install wide-screen TVs for fight-tape reviews, and to provide an expanded family viewing area.

Adamson’s Karate is one of several busi-nesses to uproot a longstanding Merchant Square location in recent months.

“A lot of the stores have gone out of Merchant Square, and the traffic is a lot

slower,” Adamson said. “We feel like Rangeline Road is the new up-and-coming place.”

Adamson’s Karate reopens at new location


Salon 01 opened its doors, and its pock-ets, on Monday to help out the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund.

Twenty percent of all sales that day went toward granting the wish of Erin May-hugh, 16, a leukemia patient from Green-field. Mayhugh also received a manicure and pedicure from Salon 01 beautician Kayleigh Brown, as well as a visit from members of the Indiana Pacers Girls.

Mayhugh’s wish was a trip to Disney-world for herself and her family, so that her infant niece Kaylee could experience it.

“I’ve been there before, and it’s a fun place to be,” Mayhugh said.

Mayhugh is the daughter of Jeff and Hope Mayhugh.

Salon 01 owners Micki and David Stirs-man have been involved with the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund for more than a

decade.“Their whole mission is to grant wishes

just for Indiana children,” Micki said. “We found it a worthy cause.”

Commentary by Jeff Worrell

Chris Nardi is a member of the esteemed and highly respected Boy Scout Press Corps. He was on location for the recent Boy Scout National Order of the Arrow Conference. A 7th grader at Clay Middle School and a dedicated Boy Scout, he was willing to file a report for the benefit of our Current in Carmel readers. I am happy to bring you an eyewitness account by CIC Special Contributor Chris Nardi.

Six Boy Scouts from the Carmel area at-tended the National Order of the Arrow Con-ference from July 31 to August 4 at Michigan State University in East Lansing, Michigan. The Order of the Arrow is the Boy Scout National Honor Society. The conference’s theme was “United, We Leave a Legacy.” More than 7,000 Boy Scouts and adults attended the conference. The conference helped attendees develop a deeper understanding of the Order of the Arrow through classes on topics such as Native Ameri-can dances, costumes, Scouting, and programs about how they can make a difference.

The six Scouts from the Carmel area who attended were Adam Aldrich, Stephen Bernard, Daniel Goldberg, Chris and Joseph Nardi, and Andrew Roher.

Additional themes were unity, service, leader-ship, the 100th Anniversary of Eagle Scouts, and sacrifice. In the last 100 years, an aston-

ishing 100 million hours of service have been performed on Eagle Scout Projects, with 3 mil-lion additional hours of service being completed each year.

The Order of the Arrow performs many ser-vice projects, ranging from small ones such as volunteering at the Indiana State Fair, to large ones such as ArrowCorps5, which was per-formed in 2008 in cooperation with the United States Forest Service.

There were many fun activities all week, such as sports, geo-caching, an Amazing Race, Ad-venture Central, and Science, Technology, Engi-neering, Mathematics (STEM) experiences.

The National Order of the Arrow Confer-ence 2012 was a great experience, and everyone is looking forward to the next one in 2015. In the meantime, Boy Scouts and their adult lead-ers will continue to perform cheerful service in their communities.

I am thankful to Chris and his Scouting brothers for the ongoing service that the Boy Scouts provide to our community. And Cor-respondent Chris reminds us, “Not just service; but cheerful service.”

COMMUNITY Plain talk

Commentary by marnin Spigelman

It was rather bittersweet for me to read the Indianapolis newspaper’s article regarding the City Council work on the potential refinance of the Redevelopment Commission debt. For over six years I warned the people of Carmel that, in the end result, the City would find itself in a quagmire over Mayor Brainard’s excessive if not frivolous spending of taxpayer money. Alas, very few chose to listen.

The City Council is composed of all your representatives who are supposed to ensure that you are protected against such scenarios. In my opinion, they have utterly failed as the fiscal body of Carmel by allowing the Mayor to un-controllably spend your money on pretty build-ings laden with unsupportable debt.

Now your supposed representatives are nego-tiating a deal where all of the debt will be put on the shoulders of the resident taxpayers of Carmel. Up to this point, debt has solely been paid by commercial taxation. They are appar-ently still in a state of denial, or else they do not have the courage to admit that it is Mayor Brainard who must be stopped cold in his ac-tions that are bankrupting the City.

The mayor and his entourage have wholly failed in fundraising efforts, and now he is ask-ing the resident property owners of Carmel to pay for his leading the City into a financial

black hole. The people of Carmel should rise up from their apathy and denial, and urge their Council representatives to cease and desist in this effort to cover up the mayor’s folly. If such refinancing occurs, I believe that all will see a Carmel bankruptcy in the future.

In my opinion, it is better that the CRC default on its debt rather than have the city property owners be strapped to repay it all. It is time for the mayor to be held fully accountable for his errant actions, which have been devoid of a conservative fiscal view for a growing municipality.

Six and a half years ago, my wife Norma and I dreamed that the city of Carmel would be the place we would spend the balance of our retire-ment years. However, with the actions of this government in those years, and the continued stasis of the populace to important political con-cerns, it has been proven to us that Carmel may very well not be that place.

Accordingly, we have sold our home, and will be leaving Carmel forever. I can only wish the best for those good people who listened to my warnings in the past, all of which have come to fruition, and I urge others to wake up from their stasis and rise up to ensure that taxpayers here are not burdened with the mayor’s mis-takes. God bless you all.

A last farewell to Carmel

The 15th Annual Carmel International Arts Festival on September 22 and 23 will feature an array of entertainment options, including an area designated as “Young at Art” offering family-friendly activities.

Pat Hite, Arts Festival board member and volunteer, is well underway making plans for family fun and arranging for street entertainers to appeal to all ages. Special children’s activities will include Dooley the Clown creating balloon art, Clown-E offering face painting, and Daryl Pfree portrait drawings by caricature artist and instructor Daryl Pyle.

The primary “Young at Art” area will be ap-propriately located in front of the Sweet Shoppe in Carmel on Range Line Road. In addition to a dedicated family area, the festival will feature street musicians and performers, including Brad Hoyt playing an amazing harp-guitar and David Arrington (from SaxItUp) performing jazz fa-vorites on the saxophone.

According to Hite, “In addition to enter-tainers and activities, the festival we will place popular cut-outs along Main Street where you

can take your picture posing as a sumo wrestler, Japanese geisha, Irish stepper and Bavarian Ger-man girl.”

Festival board members will be making fi-nal plans during the next few weeks to assure that the 15th Annual Carmel International Arts Festival will be a memorable event for the community.

Mark your calendars for September 22 (10 a.m. – 6 p.m ) and September 23 (10 a.m. – 5 p.m.) and Celebrate the Arts in downtown Car-mel at Main Street and Range Line Road.

As always, admission and parking for the fes-tival are FREE! For more information, visit the website at www.carmelartsfestival.org.

A proposal to build a gas station on the southeast corner of 146th Street and Gray Road has drawn the ire of nearby residents.

The parcel, which is currently “just trees,” ac-cording to neighbor Steve Dauby, is zoned only for residential uses – a zoning backed up by the city’s comprehensive plan for the area, residents say.

A previous plan for townhomes on the site which residents supported was eventually scrapped by developer Hearthview Residential.

“We supported the town homes,” Dauby said. “What goes in on that corner, what does it look like, does it fit the overall feel of the area, the

traffic? That’s always been our concerns.”Dauby and other residents have started an

online petition against the rezoning request. As of press time, the petition had garnered 169 signatures. It can be found online by search-ing for “City of Carmel Officials and Planning Commission” at change.org.

“These guys have so much money sunk into this property that really their only avenue now to recoup their investment is to go some type of commercial, and that’s pretty obvious that’s what they’re doing,” Dauby said. “It’s not what best fits the neighborhood, it’s about getting their money back.”

The Carmel Plan Commission will hear the rezoning request tonight at 6 p.m. at city hall.

CARmel PoliCe ARReSt mAn in ConneC-tion to PoSSible RAPe – On July 7 the Carmel Police Dept. received information of a possible rape that had occurred a few days earlier. The initial information was that a 19-year-old male allegedly raped a 13-year-old female at a party on July 4. The party took place at an apartment on Hillside Drive in Carmel Woods. After a month-long investigation the case was submitted to the Hamilton County Prosecutor’s Office. As a result of this investigation a warrant was issued for Charles Blake Bracken, a 19-year-old male from Carmel, for rape and child molestation. Carmel officers located Bracken on Aug. 8. He was arrested and booked into the Ham-ilton County Jail.

ConStRuCtion uPdAte – The Indiana Dept. of Transportion has reopened the entrance ramp from northbound Allison-ville Road to eastbound I-465. Both exit ramps from I-465 to Allisonville Road (Exit 35) remain open to right turns. Westbound I-465 is able to exit to northbound Al-lisonville Road, and eastbound I-465 is able to exit to southbound Allisonville Road. Traffic is still prohibited from crossing the bridge, which was closed approximately 110 days for reconstruction on May 30. For more information visit www.Allisonvil-leRoad.com.

WHAT IS DEBT SETTLEMENT?Debt Settlement is when you pay off debt at a reduced amount, often at 50% or less.

WHO IS THE BEST CANDIDATE FOR DEBT SETTLEMENT?A small business or individual with $30,000 or more of unsecured debt, who has a 401K plan, an inheritance, or a lump sum distribution; as approxi-mately half of debt amount must be set aside in escrow to settle debt when agreement is reached with the creditor.

WHY DO I NEED AN ATTORNEY? WHY CAN’T I DO IT MYSELF?Most of the time creditors will not negotiate with individuals, or debt settlement companies. They will ask an attorney for a “power of attorney”. An attorney locks in the terms, so that the creditor cannot change them and try to collect more interest or fees later. An attorney can also protect you in the event of a lawsuit occurring while negotiations are ongoing.

WHAT ARE THE RISKS?There is a risk of a lawsuit occurring before the debt is settled, which is usually avoided by using a LOCAL attorney. Also one’s credit score could decline while negotiations are taking place.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SETTLE ALL THE DEBT?Most of the time a creditor will not begin negotia-ting until debt is 6 months past due. Therefore debt settlement is usually completed as soon as terms are reasonable.

AM I TAXED ON THE MONEY SAVED?There could be tax due on money saved. Your accountant can see if you are exempt from taxes under IRS Insolvency Rules, Publication 4681.

HOW CAN I LEARN MORE?To learn more, call Mike at 317-266-8888, email: [email protected] orvisit: mikenorrislaw.com.

Mike is an Indiana Attorney who has been practicing law for 33 years. He is a former full-time professor of real estate law and business law at the University of Colorado.

Nancy Chance’s mission to help others and cre-ate a network for services for those in need started at the age of four in 1946.

While at her grandparents’ home in Noblesville, Chance saw home-less folks jumping off of a train to sit below a bridge. Curious, as any four-year-old would be, she asked her grandfather what they were doing and what they would eat. He replied, “Nothing,” unless she did something about it (according to an informa-tional video online).

She found a solution. She asked her grand-mother to make some sandwiches, and, with her grandfather, gave the homeless travelers a meal. Since then, she’s been interested in helping out the less fortunate.

By day, Chance works in the blood bank at Riverview Hospital. After a day of work, she heads over to Good Samaritan Network of Hamilton County, Inc.’s office, just off 131st Street in Fishers, to take care of business at the organization, which is a not-for-profit network that she started in 1980 and formalized in 1995.

“There’s a tremendous amount of knowledge you can gather from both sides,” Chance said.

It began as taking care of unifying food basket programs in Hamilton County. Today, more than 100 organizations across Hamilton County

consider themselves part of the network. Any-where from 900 to 1,500 volunteers work with the organization annually.

Chance describes the organiza-tion as a “hybrid intermediary” that helps organize other groups, such as churches and food banks, in their mission to help others.

Currently, Good Samaritan Net-work is collecting book bags for kids in Hamilton County. Chance said she expected 800 bags to come in by the end of last week.

In addition, the organization par-ticipates in rent, utility and car repair assistance programs.

During the holidays, Good Samaritan Net-work organizes meal deliveries, as well as a holiday project that takes place at the Hamilton County Fairgrounds.

Chance said Fishers residents have been great about helping out the network through donations. Donations benefit families who have lost their homes and possessions, as well as burn victims.

“We really appreciate what they have done,” Chance said.

Her favorite part of starting Good Samaritan Network? The people.

“You can enhance people’s lives, but they can enhance yours even more,” she said. “It’s just been a blessing.”

A man narrowly escaped serious injury when his plane flipped over during take off on Aug. 11. WFD Spokesman John Barrett said the crash happened a little after noon at the Wheeler Airport, 18036 Dartown Rd.

“The plane was racing down the runway when a gust of wind appar-ently made it difficult to handle,” Barrett said. “The man tried to ground the plane, but it suddenly flipped over.”

Barrett said fellow pilots at the airport went into action and got the downed pilot out safely.

The Indy Flyers Light Aircraft Club was hosting an Ultralight and Light Sport Fly that day at the Westfield airport. Paramedics arrived shortly after and transported the patient to a nearby hospital with minor injuries. Barrett said firefighters remained on the scene until the Federal Aviation Administration arrived and began its investigation later that afternoon.

COMMUNITY Cover Story

Jon E. Gee recounts playing bass for Ted Nugent and John Mellencamp, and shares how to ‘make it’ in the music business


The bass guitar wasn’t Jon E. Gee’s first in-strument. It wasn’t even his second.

It is this instrument, however, that has taken him around the world in a 30-plus year career, backing up artists like Ted Nugent and John Mellencamp.

Fresh off a tour with Mellencamp, Gee sat down with Current at his teaching studio in Carmel to talk music, touring, and making it big.Current: you picked up the bass in 1974, but it wasn’t your first instrument. how did you find your way to it?

Gee: “I played other instruments before. You know…your basic school instruments. I played tuba for a while, but that was too big for me. I played trombone, but the whole time I wanted to be a drummer.”

“I was playing drums in a band and it seemed to me that our bass player wasn’t playing the parts right. So I picked up a bass and started fooling around. As it happened, a friend of mine asked me if I played bass. I just said, ‘Yes.’ A week later I was playing bass in a band.”Current: you played with a number of acts through the ’70s and ’80s, notably Roadmaster and henry lee Summer. your career really took off in the ’90s when you joined ted nugent. Get us up to speed with that.

Gee: “After Henry, I ended up in Florida and toured with some bands. None of those bands became famous, but I met a lot of people who worked for famous bands.”

“I was talking to Michael Lutz, who was the bass player for Ted Nugent at the time. I said, ‘If you ever come off the road, you tell Ted that’s my gig.’”

“Well, Mike left to run Tasmania Studio, so they had Ted call me. Back then, I had a friend who always called people pretending to be Ted Nugent. So I hung up on Ted Nugent. He called me back laughing, of course.”Current: from 1996 to 1999, you toured with ted nugent, and then you got another call. this time it was from John mellencamp’s drummer, dane Clark.

Gee: “(Clark) said that the bass player was leaving the band. So I went and auditioned

for John’s band. John ended up actually hir-ing someone else at first, but when the smoke cleared, I was the one left standing.

“It was a big adjustment for me, musically. One, we were a power trio in Ted’s band. In John’s band we had eight members. And the music in Ted’s band was louder, rockier. John’s music was more organized. Everyone had a cer-tain role.”Current: you’ve played with mellencamp since 1999, and on all of his records since “Cuttin’ heads” (2001). he’s gotten a lot of press during that time for how his sound has evolved. What’s

that transition been like from your end?Gee: “The band has made a pretty drastic

change, as far as musical direction. And for a lot of us, it meant moving into an area that wasn’t our specialty. For me, it meant I had to learn upright bass.”

“People say he’s gone country now, but I don’t think that’s what it is. I call it ‘acoustic roots’ music.”Current: off the road, you’ve also been teaching lessons since the ’90s. What prompted you to jump into the instructor’s chair?

Gee: “Back in the ’90s when I was traveling,

I noticed there weren’t a lot of bands. People were trying to be rappers or singer shows. There wasn’t a lot of focus on musicianship. I thought, ‘Man, it would really suck if we looked up one day and there aren’t any musicians.’ I thought, ‘I can’t allow that to happen.’”Current: Part of your instruction, beyond just musicianship, is teaching bands how to move onto the national scene. What do you tell them?

Gee: “First, nobody can absolutely guarantee you that you’ll be a star. Anyone who tells you that, run as fast as you can.”

“Second, being in a local band and being in a national band don’t have a lot in common. In my program, I teach that if you’re going to be a national act, you have to set your life up to be in a national act. There are some people who are just not designed for that level of success. A lot of them can’t deal with the off-stage presence.”Current: you’ve already said that you got into teaching because you weren’t a fan of a lot of contemporary music in the ’90s. do you see the industry the same way today?

Gee: “I see it changing now. In the ’90s I hat-ed the music industry. The music to me didn’t have any heart and soul.”Current: Any advice for aspiring Jon e. Gees?

Gee: “Bass players are in demand. Actually, musicians period. There are a lot of ways to make a living. Don’t let people tell you that if you’re not a star it’s a waste of time. It’s not. Go for it with all you’ve got. I think it’s a great life. It’s only a hard life if you’re not supposed to be there.”

VIEWS Opinion

It is our position that just as students are getting back into the routines that are associated with the school year, those who have moved on from going to school must do the same. First off, school zones are back in effect. While they are a pain, they’re there for a reason and can help save lives. Even if there doesn’t appear to be anyone remotely close to the road, please continue to follow the posted speed limit. Not doing so is ir-responsible (and against the law.)

Second, school buses will be back out on the streets. While it is another hassle for these on the rush to get to their destination, it’s important to be watchful and stop when the stop arm on the bus is displayed. Bus drivers have enough to deal with without other drivers being a major concern.

Gone are the warm (maybe too warm) summer mornings where the kids could sleep during the morning traffic rush. Now, they’re going to be right there in the middle of it with everyone else. We need to remind ourselves some of the finer points of driving during the school year.

“Never complain about what you permit to be.”

Commentary by terry Anker

There are many ways to measure success. But chief among them is to know that we are tops on a list where it is good to be tops and near the bottom, where the opposite standard applies. This past week, we Hoosiers moved in the opposite direction on both measures. We ballooned on lists that measure our obesity per capita compared to fellow states. And, we tumbled on lists that quantify personal activ-ity in contrast to citizens in other locales. It seems clear that the two are related, but some would rather not consider the connection. In my own fight against age and a slowing metabolism, it pains me to admit that it is the dressing on my salad that expands my waist-line and not the salad itself. But the dressing is so very tasty; it can’t be hiding fat and calories behind its silky goodness. And, water is a great thirst quencher, but there is something about that curvy bottle and red label that makes one need an afternoon soda – or two – or three.

Yet self-deception alone doesn’t account for our burgeoning selves. We routinely drive around the lot looking for the closest space. How can walking be better than driving? And, the escalator is just plain fun to ride. At day’s end, we relax with television – not a long walk. And too often, restaurants measure by the pounds served not the quality of provision. A quick survey of local dining establishments shows numerous salads exceeding in one por-tion the allowable healthy dietary intake for an adult. The super-sized burgers, fries and other dietary staples can easily make a single meal surpass by many times the 24 hour maxi-mums allowed for a healthy existance. Is being a member of the Clean Plate Club killing us? Let’s have dinner and discuss.

By all accounts, the future of the direction of arts and entertainment for our region, with re-gard to the Center for the Performing Arts, is in good hands. Tania Castroverde Moskalenko is at the helm of the organization and campus as its new chief executive officer.

She began her job Aug. 13, taking over for interim CEO Frank Basile, who did a stellar job. We had an opportunity to chat up her and her husband, Alexi, at a recent private gathering. And let us tell you… She is one confident woman with a track record of success. We believe she will add to that here and for all the right reasons that will benefit Central Indiana residents for years to come.

Coming from Germantown, Tennessee (in suburban Nashville), as the ranking officer of its performing arts center, she turned around a fiscally-challenged facility, elevated the quality of performing acts, and got nose-deep in fun-draising. She told us last week that fundraising here is one of her primary objectives.

She is so genuine, so embracing of the region and its hospitality thus far, and she clearly is excited and grateful for the opportunity before her. So, the question becomes: When will she begin to put her own stamp on the Center? We assume that’s going to come after she is able to locate the conference room.

Once she gets settled, arts patrons will see subtle – and maybe not-so-subtle – changes, all aimed at enhancing the experience, to speak noth-ing of boosting education opportunities through the Center and the Michael Feinstein Initiative. It should prove truly enjoyable to watch it all unfold, and we wish her success in her endeavors.

VIEWS Opinion

editor,Finally, a common sense article exposing a

major problem with our congress and their inability to solve America’s most pressing prob-lems. Jim Blessing may be the only Democrat in Carmel (NOT!) but he certainly is not the only Moderate.

As a Moderate, I believe the polarization of our society on political issues is extremely dan-gerous, resulting in family members, neighbors, relatives and church members creating harmful relationships and resentment, instead of love, toward each other.

Our churches may espouse love thy neighbor, but when it comes to political issues it is every

right winger for themselves and damnation to you if you do not “go along to get along”. Heaven forbid if our congress actually practiced the art of bi-partisanship in the interest of gov-erning. Bi-partisanship, or “horse trading” as it was called in those days, is exactly how our U.S. constitution was created.

The media, especially talk radio/TV, is fueling this polarization. Polarization on political issues would be reduced if the ego driven talk radio hosts suddenly came down with a good case of permanent Laryngitis.

Way to go Jim!!Peace and Semper Fi!

Good job, Jim Blessing

Aflutter over Chik-fil-Aeditor,

At the Main Street Barber Shop the whole Chik-fil-A thing has brought more jokes and conversation than I care to discuss, so I thought I’d bring in a different point of view. I’m glad someone still has biblical principals as I do, but I also know that as humans we can be hypocrites. Remember the saying in the Holy Bible advising not to tell your brother there’s a splinter in his eye when there’s a plank in yours? We all sin, it’s just how we choose to do

it. I admire someone who speaks out – I do it myself – but you can’t tell gay couples they’re wrong and sinful when you sin yourself in a dif-ferent manner. So it seems to me that everyone else should leave everyone else alone unless it is harming or damaging others. The best bet is just to teach your kids your beliefs and hope they make the right decisions. I myself love Chik-fil-A; and as long as you wash your hands I don’t care who serves me.

Bedside mannersCommnetary by dick Wolfsie

This is an article about my one night stand. No, I didn’t have a one night stand. I bought one. (I’m making this worse, aren’t I?) Let me try this: I purchased one night stand at a local mega-hardware store. It was packaged in several parts, but the box said, “Assembly Very Easy.” I was suspicious. That was exactly what my third grade teacher said before she made me sing in front of the entire student body at Roosevelt Elementary School. I remember swearing that was the last assembly I’d ever do.

Of course, I have broken that pledge a couple of times already. About two years ago, I tried to put a wall unit together, but I stressed out when the shelves didn’t fit properly. I walked away frus-trated, but the cat liked what she saw. We now have the world’s most expensive kitty litter box.

Overall, this should have been an easy task. Every piece in the kit was assigned a letter. All the grooves were numbered and there was an actual picture of all six kinds of screws and four types of nails. I once saw a guy on YouTube complete the Rubik’s Cube blindfolded using only his feet. Some guys get all the easy gigs.

The first problem was that the directions were in three languages: English, Spanish and French. This was an immediate distraction to me because the phrase “Avec precaution, retourner l’element sur ses chants avant,” sounds a lot saucier than “Care-fully turn your unit over and onto its front edges.”

The second problem was that I’m not good with tools. Like, the directions said I needed a Phillips screwdriver. That would be equal parts vodka, or-ange juice and Milk of Magnesia, right?

I was relieved to find there was a hotline number. By the way, this furniture manufacturer only answers the phone between 8 a.m. and midnight, so by 7:59 a.m. the lines start lighting up with frustrated customers like me who were up all night wondering who Allen is and where he put his stupid wrench.

One of the things they instruct the buyer to do is register the product. I’ll register to vote; I’m happy to show a police officer my registration; and I’m never shy about registering my opinion. But I will not register my night stand. I have my rights. If they want their night table back they’ll have to pry it away from my cold dead hands.

Once the bedside table was completely as-sembled, I was pretty happy with myself, although it did take me four hours and three phone calls to complete my task. I must admit, however, that I am not totally confident I got it to look 100 percent like the photo on the box. But Mary Ellen must have been impressed when she got home. She thought it was the biggest birdhouse she had ever seen.

One of those peopleCommnetary by danielle Wilson

Heaven help me, I’m becoming one of those people. You know the kind− women who ob-noxiously extol the virtues of their children to anyone with ears: “My Richard is so wonderful! Straight A’s again and of course, captain of the varsity basketball team. As a freshman! Well, it’s no surprise really; he did walk at 4 months and was reading Dostoyevsky by 3.” Gag.

As a direct result of listening to this annoying jibberjabber, I’ve made a conscientious effort to dwell on the shortcomings of my family rather than their achievements whenever I’m with family or neighbors a… body odor, a trip to the principal’s office, maybe a snaggle tooth or two − all better conversation pieces than their latest accomplishment or surpassed milestone. Even my annual holiday letter only briefly touches on their outstanding-ness because let’s face it, per-fection is Boring with a capital B.

And people with their pets are even worse. Like I give a rat’s tail about your precious Mister Pickleknuckle and how his antics in your laven-der-scented bubble bath almost cost him Best in Show. First of all, who has time for a bath? And secondly, DOGS ARE NOT PEOPLE.

But the other day, I found myself waxing poetically about our cat, of all things! Granted, I came nowhere close to the aforementioned dog owners who I think might actually be saving for

pet college (in case their pedigree scholarship falls through), but still, I was deplorable.

“Ginger is the best! She lets us know when she’s hungry or needs new litter; she meows when she wants to go outside; and she absolutely loves to be around people. Did you know she can open doors? Seriously! You should see how she hurls her body against a swing handle! Truly amazing! Blah blah blah … and even sounded the alarm when little Timmy fell down the well!”

The person I was talking to wasn’t even look-ing at me anymore, and yet I continued to bombard her with the details of an animal she couldn't have cared less about. Did I inquire about her pets? Her children? Nope. I just went right on flappin’ my gums like I was the most important person on Earth and she surely had nothing better to do than to hear about my life with a tabby. Ugh! What is happening to me?

No worries. I discovered a giant pile of Ginger poo in the carpeted family room earlier this morn-ing, before I’d had my ritual coffee and after I’d yelled at my 11-year-old to lower the volume on the stupid Xbox. Had he been playing all night? Whew! I’m back to my normal real self. Peace out.

For the last three years, Indiana’s greatest chefs, breweries and wineries have gathered at White River State Park to showcase much of what the state has to offer, culinarily and agriculturally. This event, Dig IN: A Taste of Indiana, started in 2009 as a private gathering of local food enthusiasts. After finding interest in the surrounding community for a larger-scale event, Dig IN became the outdoor festival that it is today.

“The whole point of the event is to highlight

for Hoosiers what all is grown and produced within Indiana. We’ve picked what we consider to be the state’s best chefs, farmers and produc-ers, not just those from Indianapolis,” said Eric Freeman, director of Dig IN.

The event acts not only as an opportunity to taste more than 30 chefs’ dishes, but also as a way to tie local food enthusiasts directly to farmers and food producers.

“When you enter Dig IN, you get a passport. It includes the chefs’ names and restaurants as well as the farmers and farms that produced the food. In many ways, the farmers are just as im-portant as the chefs,” said Freeman.

Local food sourcing is just one of the many things Dig IN is hoping to communicate to event goers this weekend. Eight seminars will cover a wide variety of topics including every-thing from national farming legislation to local wine production.

In the years since the first private event, Dig IN has garnered a sizeable following through-out the state, one that has forced it to raise the number of “tastes” available to those in attendance. The 34 chefs, artisans, breweries and wineries each will be preparing 3,500 two-

ounce portions to feed the growing crowd.“Dig IN grew by six hundred people from

year one to year two. Last year, we hosted 3,700 people, and it seems to have only grown in popularity since. This year, we are anticipating 5,000 and that’s when we will have to shut the gates,” said Freeman, laughing. “We already have the ‘Sold Out’ banners prepped.”

dig in: A taste of indiana is taking place from noon to 5 p.m. this Sun-day at White River State Park (801 W. Washington, indianapolis). A ticket includes tastes of all the food and drinks available at dig in, although additional alcohol is available for purchase. tickets are available online now for $30 at digindiana.org, $10 less than on the day of the event.

It’s a good bet most of the crowd packing the Palladium on Aug. 1 to hear pop-rocker Kenny Loggins stroll through hits from yesterday had no idea they would be walking into a:

1. Country music show2. Kenny Loggins dream 3. Surreal arrangement in which Loggins ac-

tually opened for himselfAt age 63, Kenny Loggins is “pursuing anoth-

er dream,” as he explained of his new country band, Blue Sky Riders.

“My music advisor said I was too old to start over,” Loggins said. “He is no longer my music advisor.”

Displaying brilliant harmonies, the threesome of Loggins and Nashville singer-songwriters Gary Burr and Georgia Middleman opened a magical, two-and-a-half hour evening with a set of country originals.

Then, it took Loggins just 30 seconds into his own set to have the crowd under his com-mand as it chimed in on the chorus to “Danny’s Song.” It was just the first of a number of sing-alongs as Loggins seduced the crowd with a phe-nomenal offering of clean and powerful vocals.

Sharing songwriting stories along the way, Loggins eased through the old favorites like “Return to Pooh Corner” (“It was the first book I ever read”), “Whenever I Call You Friend” (“I dedicate this to Stevie Nicks who inspired me”)

and “This Is It” (“A crappy song I wrote with Jim Messina that won a Grammy”).

And just when you thought the night couldn’t get any better than hearing his high-reaching vocals on “Celebrate Me Home,” Loggins charged to the finish with movie soundtrack hits “I’m Alright,” “Danger Zone” and“Footloose,” a crescendo-building list that turned a Palladium-polite crowd into a room of rowdy rockers.

A polished performer and perfectionist, Log-gins knows the difference between singing “at” a crowd and singing “for” it. He was more than just “alright.”

Commentary by dr. barry eppley

Q: i am a 55 year old woman who is a little overweight. At 5’4” and 190 lbs, i wouldn’t call myself fat – just above my ideal body weight. the reality is that my weight is very stable and has been relatively the same for almost 20 years. i exercise and eat reasonably, and this is just the way it is. i am fine with that as i am otherwise healthy. my face has always been al little plump, but otherwise firm, until the past few years. i have noticed that there is some jowling appearing along the jawline, but the real problem is my neck. it has gone to hell in the proverbial hand basket. it has gotten so droopy and saggy that i know it is time for some type of necklift. my question is; am i too fat to get a facelift?

A: Your question is a good one and would be a

lot more relevant if you were younger. But as you have gotten older, regardless of your weight, the skin in the neck has begun sag. This sagging is the result of the skin stretching and loosening and no longer being able to support the weight of the fat it contains. Many men and women with similar situations and face shapes actually get great benefit from neck reduction/tightening. Until proven oth-erwise, it may be that you may get a greater benefit from a necklift than someone who is thinner with less loose skin. Delaying a necklift may make sense if you are planning to lose more than few pounds of weight, but that clearly is not the case.

Postmenopausal women who ate 75 grams of dried apple a day, equivalent to two medium-sized apples, for six months experienced a 13% decline in total cholesterol levels and a 24% drop in low-density lipoprotein, or "bad," choles-terol levels, researchers found. - r.smartbrief.com

When Elena Vaughner opened the new location of her kids clothing resale store, The Dotted Lime, a month ago she faced a difficult realization. Previously, the store had 3,000 sq. ft. of space, but the new loca-tion at the old Masonic building in downtown West-field is only 700 sq. ft.

“I focused on what I had and made it a boutique shop,” she said. “I have better brands, I’m focused more on style and not being a big warehouse of stuff.”

Vaughner said her store carries American Eagle, Hollister, Abercrombie, etc. – all the big brands that children are wearing today at considerably lower prices.

“People don’t want to pay $40 to $80 for a pair of jeans,” she said. “I’ve noticed that it’s not just the people who don’t have a lot of money – everyone is shopping wiser; it’s not looked down upon.”

With the space change, Vaughner no longer has infant clothing and now carries toddler (3T) to teenager sizes.

“I like having teens because nothing around here has teen clothing,” she said, “with prices mom and teens can deal with.”

The Dotted Lime buys new and like new clothing – from casual wear to Sunday’s best and formal dresses, and sportswear like sports cleats and football pants.

“I try to carry as much as I can. A lot of the stuff we get in is new because kids outgrow their clothes before they can wear it,” Vaughner said. “We’re clean, orga-nized and I am very picky on what we take. . . Any-thing I can get that I think is awesome, I will carry.”

In addition to children’s clothing, The Dotted Lime

sells purses, shoes, jewelry, Vera Bradley, books, games and DVDs.

Isabella Smith assists her mother with the fashion. The Westfield Intermediate School student said she also gets all of her clothing from the store.

“It’s cool because you don’t have to worry about how much prices are compared to what other stores are when you get the same thing,” Smith said.

Vaughner has lived in the Westfield area for 45 years. Her father was a longtime preacher in the city and the family lived in Westfield before moving to No-blesville, where Vaughner graduated from Noblesville High School in 1985.

The Dotted Lime Resale is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday; and noon to 6 p.m. Wednesday. The store is located at 230 E. Main St. in Westfield.

loCAlS helP PAtent delPhi teChnoloGieS PRoduCt – Westfield’s Craig A. Tieman and Carmel’s Lev M. Vitkin teamed up with Fiean Liem and Curtis Paul Houllion of El Paso, Texas to invent a “vehicle locator key fob with range and bearing measurement” which has been patented by Delphi Technologies of Troy, Mich. The invention is described as “an apparatus and method of determining bearing and distance measurements between a mobile device and an object using Rf based mea-surements.” “The mobile device communicates with a control in the object to determine the relative bearing between the mobile device and the object with respect to magnetic north and, optionally, the distance between the mobile device and the object,” stated an abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. “An indicator on the mobile device aid in directing s the user of the mobile device toward the object as the mobile device is moved relative to the object. The mobile device can be a key fob and the object can be a vehicle.”

Commentary by david Cain

Great movies are the quintessential entertain-ment. With a good story line, one can be mes-merized for hours, completely forgetting about the hardships of the real world. Combined superb acting or music, a movie can be trans-formed to a classic that is worth watching over and over again.

Movies work because, unlike real life, they follow a script, which omits mundane incidents and are edited to create an illusion of sequence. Characters move from one important scene to another without the normal restrictions of time and place. The audience follows the drama to conclusion with great amusement.

In one sense, businesses can never be like the movies because they require intense day-to-day work to create the goods or services to be offered. There is no script and no editing to eliminate the routine events. Good or bad, each moment must be endured. A day in the life any business may be a good story to tell, and even involve good char-acters, but there is usually little entertainment

value in the sequence of the day. Marketing a business, on the other hand, is

an entirely different thing and can be exactly like a movie. A good marketer will create a plan or script to be followed that will capture the es-sence of the business and then deliver the story about the products or services to the audience in a seamless and compelling message, thereby creating goodwill for the company that inspires customer loyalty.

It is paramount to have the right team to de-liver the message to the audience. A great movie is created by artists who merge their individual talents and efforts into a collaborative master-piece. Similarly, a successful marketing group combines the expertise and skills of professionals to develop an impactful story. To quote a classic movie: “Choose wisely.”

God’s gift is really a present

Bob Walters ([email protected]) notes that one of life’s most exhausting endeavors is dragging along our past.

Commentary by bob Walters

I’ve been a writer my entire career: newspa-pers, sports, public relations, corporate commu-nications, magazine articles, speeches, publish-ing a book, etc. And my wife just retired from 34 years of teaching English.

She’s an expert at English mechanics, while I “just do it” (write) without knowing the finer points of grammatical rules that I should prob-ably know. So it’s not the least bit unusual, though maybe a bit weird, for us to discuss gram-mar: verb tenses, punctuation for possessive pro-nouns (such as ‘its’ vs. ‘one’s’), subject-predicate contractions (you’re), dependent clauses, com-pound sentences, and (yawn) on and on. Bet you wish you could have dinner at our place.

Anyway, a handful of things recently colluded in my mind regarding past, present, and future verb tenses to shed light on the uniqueness and distinction of God’s eternity. To wit:

This summer I reread 1942 classic The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis, wherein senior devil administrator Screwtape coaches a junior devil trainee on how to entrap a human being into Hell. Chapter 15 discusses the importance of keeping humans focused on the past (sin, guilt, shame, pride) or the future (fear), but steering them clear of the present. That’s because God is in eternity and, Screwtape writes, “the present is the point at which time touches eter-

nity.” Because there is neither past nor future in eternity, it’s always the present for God. That’s where mankind finds God, in the present.

Our congregation recently commissioned a new pastor, Dr. Rick Grover, whose opening sermon series “Legacy” focuses on the past, present, and future of our church My wife was scheduled to present an early August wor-ship service communion meditation, but due to voice troubles traded for my October date. My “aha!” moment came while preparing the August meditation when I learned that the com-munion intro hymn was “There Is a Redeemer.”

See? It’s present tense. When Moses asks God’s name (Exodus 3:14), what is God’s an-swer? “I AM who I AM!” Not “I was” (past), not “I will be” (future). I AM. Present tense.

There are no wasted words in the Bible, and the specificity of complex verb tenses in Greek, far beyond those in English, assure us that the pres-ent tense, as it is recorded throughout the Bible, is grammatical truth. It is not coincidence or accident.

When we feel God’s presence, it is a divine piece of eternity. How could any present be more of a gift than that?

Commentary by don Knebel

A Nat King Cole love song reciting the splendors of the Taj Mahal is entitled “Magnifi-cent Obsession.” That is an apt description of the story about what many consider to be the world’s most beautiful building, and its builder who, for years, could not look at another.

Shah Jahan, ruler of the Mughal Empire of northern India, built the Taj Mahal as a mau-soleum for his favorite wife, Mumtaz, who died during the birth of their 14th child in 1631.

The design of the Taj Mahal and its surround-ing gardens evoked the beauty and serenity of Islamic ideas of paradise. An alternative view of the afterlife is on display nearby, along the sa-cred Yamuna River on which the Taj Mahal sits. On the banks of this river, Hindus have long cremated their dead, sending their souls back to the gods to be used again.

In 1658, shortly after Shah Jahan had com-

pleted the Taj Mahal, he was deposed by his third son, Aurangzeb, who threw his ailing father into the Agra Fort (a picturesque fortress along the Yamuna River). Looking out the single window in his room, Shah Jahan could see only the wide expanse of the river and the Taj Mahal down-stream to the right. And so, day after day for eight years, the once powerful emperor stared at his masterpiece, remembered his favorite wife and dreamed of paradise. When he died in 1666, his body was laid in the Taj Mahal next to Mumtaz. Today, more than three million people travel each year to Agra to gaze upon Shah Jahan’s magnifi-cent obsession and look through the window from which he longed for it.

Commentary by John mikesell

With all the hot weather we have had I should have written this a little earlier in the year. But better late, than never and I am sure we have plenty more hot temps on the way.

Most dogs enjoy cooling off in a pool or pond when hot- but many could benefit from swim-ming or safety lessons.

Contrary to popular belief, dogs do drown. Drowning ranks fifth among leading causes of unintentional injury and death to humans in the United States. Every day, according to Cen-ters for Disease Control and Prevention, about 10 people die from unintentional drowning. There isn’t an equivalent government agency to compile statistics, but various groups have col-lected some relevant data:

One pet products company estimates that the odds of a pet drowning are 1 in 1,028.

Even pool maintenance professionals have

stories of entering clients’ homes, only to dis-cover a dog cling to life on the edge of the pool or worse.

leSSon leARnedMany dogs benefit from a swimming les-

son or two. A common misconception is that all dogs can “dog paddle” and keep themselves afloat in the water. Inexperienced (or panicked) swimmers often concentrate their efforts on the front legs, forgetting to fire up the back end. Front - end – only swimming is rather ineffec-tive and uses a tremendous amount of energy. As a result, dogs end up near-vertical in the wa-ter, with lots of splashing.

Getting in the pool (lake) with the dog and supporting his back-end as he swims a short distance is often a great way to prompt him to begin effectively using his back legs.

Using a dog life jacket to help keep him afloat can help anxious swimmers relax enough to paddle with all four legs.

Just say ‘no’ to floating pool covers. Floating covers are extremely dangerous in homes with children and pets. Countless dogs, and even accomplished swimmers, have lost their lives following an unexpected tumble into a covered pool.

I would also suggest anytime you take your dog on a boat, even a good swimmer, put a life vest on the pet.

WhAt you CAn do• Teach your dog a proper swimming tech-

nique and make sure he knows how to safely exit the backyard pool.

• Learn the signs of heatstroke which can occur even when enjoying water play.

• Have an emergency plan, which includes knowing the location of the nearest emer-gency vet and CPR for pets and people.

To prevent drowning, dogs need swimming lessons too

boRed – Many dog owners come home to find holes in their yard as a result of their pup's destructive habit of digging. In order to help curb this habit and save your precious petunias, be sure to understand that dogs dig mainly out of boredom, and yelling or pun-ishing will just be detrimental to the cause. Make sure that Fido is getting lots of exercise through walks and runs, not just letting him loose in the yard, and praise him often for good behavior. - www.goodhousekeeping.com

fRuitS And veGGieS – Although we all love our pets, sometimes they can get a bit... Pricey. Sub-stitute treats for bits of apple or baby carrots, which can help regulate your pet’s digestive system while still offering the satisfaction of a treat for less money. Never give grapes or raisins, however, as they are poisonous to most pets. - www.goodhousekeeping.com

LIFESTYLE Design

Commentary by vicky earley

What am I to do when a client presents an idea that I know, from past experience, is des-tined to fail?

In spite of a firm warning, their urge to move forward is so strong that I have to simply step aside and let them learn from their mistake. Experience can be an expensive teacher, but the lessons are never forgotten.

Since designers see it all, there is a wealth of information that lives within them, helping them to avoid obvious mistakes.

If you are more prone to heeding advice rather than “learning the hard way”, this list is for you.• Consider scale when purchasing furniture.

Tape out the dimensions and fill the space with cardboard boxes.

• If you are redecorating, don’t paint first! Magazines promise a quick, cheap update with a gallon of paint. It is far more dif-ficult to develop a room of furnishings around an arbitrary color than it is to find the perfect color for a developed room.

• Don’t test paint color on the wall … re-gardless of how eager your painter is to do it. Test on poster board as it is far easier to consider the color if there is no color next to the new hue.

• Consider the style of the structure as well as your personal style. A contemporary

house will feel uncomfortable if it is forced to wear French Country décor.

• Don’t rely on your best friend or neighbor for decorating advice. I have seen many situations where a friend in tow causes self-doubt because, unless they have a design background, the advice stems from limited knowledge and their personal preference.

• Don’t hang window treatments from a package that are several inches off the floor. Unless you are expecting a flood, a bare window is better than ill-fitting ready-mades.

• If you are going to sit on it or sleep on it, purchase the best quality you can afford. Cheap is just that: cheap. And it won’t im-prove once it is in your home.

• Don’t over-decorate with collectables. If you can’t imagine life without your collec-tion of sea glass, cluster it in one area for visual impact, rather than visual clutter.

• If you do make a mistake, don’t spend more money trying make it right. It won’t change the mistake, and you will be look-ing at a series of mistakes rather than cut-ting the loss after the first error.

Commentary by holly lindzy

From the dinner plate to the doctor’s office, fungus is a part of everyday life – and the garden is no exception.

As a gardener, I have terrific respect for fungi. Its versatility is boundless. Many species are of great benefit to the gardener’s efforts, even pro-viding nourishment. Yet others positively ruin the looks of the garden, literally, overnight. Talk about a love-hate relationship.

Fungi reproduce by releasing spores. These spores travel by way of water (rain or hose), wind and gardener; say, if we use infected leaves as mulch for the garden. When the spores have found a host, the fungus begins its infection. When the conditions are just right (damp and dark), the fungus grows and begins to occupy the affected plant. Now the struggle begins.

Once leaves are completely infected, they start to drop. To prevent further fungal issues, clean up the fallen leaves. Otherwise a secondary infection may occur when water splashes from the fallen leaves onto newer, unaffected leaves.

But you’re not in the clear just yet. Good gardening practices discourage the

growth of fungus in our gardens. For example, water in the morning and water the soil instead of the foliage. Allow enough time for the foliage to dry completely before night fall. . . the warm, drying sun is the fungi’s worst enemy. Also, keep

good air circulation around susceptible plants by trimming away excess growth to allow for more air to circulate through the plant.

While selecting new plants for the garden, look for resistant varieties such as Crabapple “Prairief-ire” or Phlox “David.” This gives you a chance to enjoy problematic plants without the worry.

And, from time to time, it may be neces-sary to handle fungal issues with a fungicide, regardless of how hard we try. Use fungicide as a preventative as early in the season as possible, just as the buds are beginning to break open and then reapply after it rains. Ultimately, sanitation is the best prevention.

So, whether you’re talking mushrooms or mil-dew, don’t let a fungus drive you batty. When it has you feeling blue, smother a steak with your favorite fungi and you’ll feel better in no time.

New outdoor living space works with existing landsacpingCommentary by larry Greene

oRiGinAl deCK: This home is located in the Ashbrooke neighborhood on the west side of Carmel, and was built in 1992. The home-owners were ready to replace the existing deck. “We had two reasons to remodel the deck. First, it was falling apart and we were piecing it together. Second, we had just renovated the kitchen, knowing that we will stay in the house longer. We wanted to be able to enjoy the deck area, too.”

budGetinG deCiSionS: The design team presented three different levels of upgrade. “Once we discovered the cost of our original vision for the deck, we realized it was out of our budget range. The final design gave us the space we were looking for within our budget. We were originally talking about multi-levels and mix-ing stone and wood. In the end, we felt that the multi-level Trex decking made the most sense for us.”

WoRKinG ARound exiStinG tReeS: “It was important to keep the trees. Having to work within the parameters of the trees made it chal-lenging, especially with the root systems and the shape of the existing bushes. I felt if we removed

bushes and trees, I was not going to enjoy the deck as much. So, the design worked within the existing landscaping.”

deCK detAilS: The deck was constructed with Trex Transcend decking with “tree house” as the main color and “vintage lantern” as the perimeter trim color. A Trex railing system was also installed, including powder-coated aluminum balusters. Trex low voltage riser lights were also installed on each stair riser. A concrete stoop at the garage door and a niche for the garden hose were also part of the final construction.

fAvoRite feAtuReS: “My favorite part of it is just sitting on the couch and looking into the

trees. It is so peaceful. I also love the lighting. Dusk to dawn, they automatically come on, which gives the deck a very professional look. We wanted unique touches. I believe it will help sell the home when it is time.”
