COMMUNITY Town-versus-CityBy Dan Domsic • [email protected]

The Fall Creek Township Board passed a resolution at a meeting last week to formally request the Hamilton County Election Board to hold a public hearing concerning Novem-ber’s town-versus-city referendum questions.

Doug Allman, township advisory board member, drafted a resolution that he said re-quests the election board to hold the hearing to resolve two issues.

First, the voting blocks are being called into question. It was not clear to the board mem-bers how votes will be tallied in the upcoming referendum. The two major options are that Fall Creek will be counted as a single entity or as two units – unincorporated and incorpo-rated residences.

The second issue at hand for the Fall Creek Township Board is if the question could be rescinded altogether.

Allman said that in July 2011, he and then-board-member Renee Cox, now a town council member, rescinded the question from the bal-lot. Considering the question remains on the ballot, the board is trying to find if its rescis-sion is valid and if the township certified the question.

Jeanette Kassebaum, the township’s legal counsel, explained that the certification process for this issue is defined through the Govern-

ment Modernization Act of 2006. The process is set in motion when a plan of reorganization is filed with the Hamilton County Recorder’s Office. Questions are then sent to the election board and the staff then puts them on a ballot.

She said if the township board does not agree with how the election board decides the issue, voters and taxpayers can levy their own petitions.

“There are challenges available in the law,” she said. “Not all is lost.”

The actual language of the resolution claims that Fall Creek Township does not believe the “Plan of Reorganization” is eligible per Resolu-tion 2011-01 filed last July. It also asked the election board to act within two business days and set the hearing as soon as possible. A reac-tion from the election board was not available as of press time.

Several residents, members of the City YES! political action committee and town councilor Renee Cox were in attendance.

Fall Creek Advisory Board member Allman, Secretary Ed Offerman and board president Dan Rieke were present for the 2-1 vote, in which Rieke abstained.

Fall Creek Township Board questions referendumthe question: Shall the town of Fish-ers and Fall Creek township reorga-nize as a single political subdivion?

ExpandEd facility will offEr highEr-lEvEl inpatiEnt carE to thE fishErs community. Starting spring 2013, St.Vincent Medical Center Northeast will become St.Vincent Fishers Hospital—a comprehensive inpatient facility serving Fishers and the surrounding communities. The new facility will expand to include enhanced inpatient services in the areas of cardiology, surgery, pediatrics, orthopedics, ear nose and throat, gastroenterology, Ob/Gyn and additional services.

Much of the new hospital expansion is focused on general medical and surgical care along with increased capabilities centered on women’s and children’s care. Women can expect to have access to the latest Ob/Gyn and breast care diagnostic tests and procedures, while pediatric care will expand to include pulmonology, endocrinology and cardiology.

Construction on the hospital is running three weeks ahead of schedule, and much of the facility is already complete. “We’re really looking forward to opening St.Vincent Fishers Hospital and serving

Fishers and the surrounding communities,” said Gary Fammartino, administrator of St.Vincent Fishers Hospital. “Construction is coming along nicely and most of our infrastructure is in place. We’re aiming to open our doors to the public by the start of April 2013.”

As part of the expansion, St.Vincent is looking for at least 200 new associates to work alongside the existing 120 outpatient associates already at St.Vincent Medical Center Northeast. And the recruiting process has already begun as they’ve added two new Ob/Gyns, Dr. Elizabeth Nowacki and Dr. Cynthia Seffernick, who will begin taking patients at St.Vincent Medical Center Northeast starting September 4, 2012.

The expansion of St.Vincent Medical Center Northeast into St.Vincent Fishers Hospital means one thing: more advanced healthcare services for Fishers and the surrounding communities. Look for St.Vincent Fishers Hospital to open its doors in the spring of 2013.

For more information on the St.Vincent Fishers Hospital expansion, visit northeast.stvincent.org.

Heart disease is the number one killer of Americans. That means it’s more important than ever to make sure your heart is healthy and operating properly.

If you’re interested in learning more about your heart health, talk to your doctor about a HeartScan. A HeartScan is a computed tomography (CT) scan that measures the amount of calcified or hardened plaque inside your coronary arteries. This test helps your doctor determine if you have any of the early warning signs of heart disease. The procedure is fast, easy and painless.

A HeartScan is recommended at age 40 and once every five years after that. Talk to your primary care physician to find out if a HeartScan is right for you.

If you wish to schedule a $49 HeartScan at St.Vincent Medical Center Northeast, call 1-866-432-4457. And if you would like to schedule an appointment with a cardiologist, call the offices of Dr. Hollon and Dr. Nasser at 317-338-6220. They are conveniently located at St.Vincent Medical Center Northeast, Suite 202.

what happened: A request to approve a sub-grant agreement for Fishers Downtown nickel Plate District Development passed.

what happened: A request to approve professional services agreement for design of Cheeney Creek wwtP headworks improvements passed

what happened: resolution r08012 was approved.

what happened: A first reading was held for an amendment to the Seasons Gardens PuD

what it means: The Hamilton County Convention and Visitors Bureau and the Town of Fishers en-tered into a memorandum of understanding for a $500,000 grant funding the Nickel Plate District. According to Tony Elliot, assistant to the town manager, approximately $433,000 of those funds have already been allocated for construction and the MOU jumped back and forth between the staffs at the convention bureau and the town. The town council deliberated but in the end, the MOU was passed by the council.

what it means: In 2008, a new Headworks wastewater treatment plant was being drawn up, which performs screening, grit removal and odor control, according to a council action form from public works assistant director Rick Farnham. Those plans were canned after “community development forecasts changed significantly.” A refurbishment of the current facility was determined to be more cost-effective than building a new facility. The current expenditure for the project, which is paid for through two funds that include availability fees and sewer operations, is $149,062. The project is in the preliminary design phase.

what it means: According to a council action from Deputy Town Manager Nathan George, property must be declared “surplus” before it can be disposed of. The property in question, two fuel tanks and a fuel pump, is estimated to be worth $5,000. If there is a use for the town, the town manager can transfer the equipment to the department in need.

Fishers Town Council

what it means: The petitioner, Seasons Gardens, is looking to employ new development and design standards, as well as C-2 zoning uses. The council inquired and talked about differences between the council action form, the staff report and what exactly can be added to the property. The amendment will return to the town council for a second reading.

COMMUNITY Honors

By Dan Domsic • [email protected]

Corbin Mathias, a Hamilton South-eastern High School graduate, was re-cently awarded a Fulbright U.S. Student Program scholarship to participate in an English Teaching Assistantship in Ger-many starting in September.

The program bills itself as the “flagship international educational exchange pro-gram sponsored by the U.S. government.”

Mathias recently graduated cum laude with University Honors from Miami of Ohio, majoring in German, German edu-cation and social studies education. He said he’s been studying the German language for nine years.

After a trip to Kiel, Germany, during high school on the encouragement of a teacher, he realized he wanted to make the language a cen-tral part of his life.

“I’m hooked,” Mathias said. Parts of German culture fascinate him – spe-

cifically how the society deals with the events surrounding World War II and the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Mathias will be a teaching assistant at the Emil-Possehl-Schule, a high school in Lübeck, Germany.

The application involved a personal state-ment, a purpose of grant statement, multiple personal and professional references, an inter-

view and a complete resume and cover letter written in German to be reviewed by a Ful-bright committee in Germany – all spread out across the academic year.

“It (the application process) is very rigorous,” Mathias said.

Mathias will now prepare for what he calls being a “cultural ambassador” – explaining to his fellow teachers and his students how things are done in the United States.

He’s only one of more than 1,700 U.S. citi-zens selected by the Fulbright U.S. Student program to see the world during the 2012-2013 academic year.

Mathias said, “It truly is a once in a lifetime opportunity, that I simply could not pass up.”

COMMUNITY Cover story

Fishers-based ‘The Sweetest Condition’ brings new style to local musicBy Dan Domsic • [email protected]

When they step up to the microphones, keyboard and drum set, members of The Sweetest Condition, a Fishers-based band, are on a mission: breaking through the everyday noise and bringing listeners genre-blurring tunes.

Inspired by Fiona Apple, Depeche Mode and Nine Inch Nails – to name a few muses – the band hopes to make the music business its everyday business.

“Musicians usually say their goal is to find a way to get what they love, which is per-forming and writing and being creative, to be their day jobs,” said lead singer Leslie Benson. “If there’s any way to do that, we’re going to find a way.”

Benson and keyboardist/guitarist Jason Milner are no strangers to the original music scene. Benson, a marketer by day, has been writing songs since she was a teenager, spend-ing time in different bands and teaching herself guitar along the way.

Milner, an engineer, learned to play the piano at age 11 after begging his parents for lessons.

Last week, The Sweetest Condition debuted at the White Rabbit Cabaret in Indianapolis’ Fountain Square district, just south of downtown. The notes might be new, but Benson, Milner and Eddie Venable, the group’s drummer, have been at it for years.

Two startsHit rewind, travel back to 2005 and find the moment when

Benson and Milner first met. A dance night at an Indy indus-trial club led to an exchange of tunes. After listening to Ben-son’s music, Milner decided they needed to collaborate.

“I thought, ‘Wow, this is awesome, we should do some-thing together,’” Milner said. “We literally wrote the majority of the first album in a month.”

Benson and Milner formed Irene and Reed, a piano-pop act. Milner said the band’s new sound gets back to the core of

what the duo both love to do. For him, it’s merging and mak-ing a conglomerate of what they’re both best at. For Benson, it’s about singing and writing.

“Jason brings the musicianship and the ability to sit down at a piano and just play anything that goes along to what I do best, which I believe is the lyric writing, the melodies, things like that” Benson said.

The band was looking for a new format, leading up to their new album, “Struggle, Strength, Reclamation.”

Benson said the new sound is reminiscent of Florence +

The Machine.“We grew up on stuff like Depeche Mode, Nine Inch Nails

… things like that, so we’re bringing that into it as well,” she said.

The group’s second album, but first as The Sweetest Condi-tion, is slated to be out by 2013.

Their cover of Depeche Mode’s hit, “Enjoy the Silence,” shares the band’s new sense of style – something reminiscent of 1980s pop backed by a layer of heavy synthesizer mixed with foreboding piano chords.

Crafting a soundThe Sweetest Condition recently went

to Sony Tree Studio in Nashville to record those dark tones for the new album. Milner and Benson said the studio has seen the likes of Lady Antebellum and Taylor Swift, and supplied the group with classic, rare instruments, such as a 1960s Hammond Organ.

“Knowing that kind of organ was used on thousands, if not tens of thousands of albums was (just amazing),” Milner said.

Vocal tracks are dropped here in Fishers using a sound card that mimics the equipment used

in-studio. Benson said, “When we write a song we

can immediately record it and get that emotion down that we’re feeling right at the moment.”

That process is a spiritual one for the singer and pianist.

“When I’m feeling pain and joy or any kind of serious emotion it will come through in my vocals the way that I see something,” Benson said, “but he’ll (Milner) immedi-ately catch on, have that empathy and just feel it and translate it into piano.”

“Mission,” a song off of the new album, is one of Benson and Milner’s favorite pieces.

“The one-liner from that song is, ‘I may make bad decisions, but I’m on a mission,’” Benson said.

She explained the meaning behind the lyrics embody taking risks and moving forward, even in the face of failure, to reach a goal that is person-ally important.

“I think that that kind of embod-ies what we do as a band,” she said.

VIEWS Opinion

wanna write us a letter? You can do it a couple ways. The easiest is to e-mail it to [email protected]. The old-fashioned way is to snail mail it to Current in Fishers, 30 South Range Line Road, Carmel, IN 46032. Keep let-ters to 200 words max (we may make excep-tions), and be sure to include your home ZIP code and a daytime number for verification.

It is our position that the term “bully pulpit” should not be taken literally by pro-testors. The recent controversy over Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathy’s comments on the Biblical definition of a family unit has ignited a firestorm from gay marriage equal-ity activists that included a staged “kiss-in” at local restaurants.

Staging a kiss-in at a Chick-fil-A res-taurant is the equivalent of making out on stage at the local elementary school or retirement center. Is that really the most ap-propriate platform for advancing a political stance on gay marriage?

There’s a difference between staging an effective protest and simply throwing a tantrum or staging a stunt for shock value. Why did the protest have to turn sexual? If the philosophy is that marriage equality is not about sex, why use kissing as a protest?

Regarding Cathy’s statements and opin-ions – what happened to free speech? Ap-parently, it’s only acceptable if you agree with the speech.

It’s very difficult to gain mutual under-standing and respect if there is no middle ground. And, there may never be a middle ground for some, rightly, or not rightly, so. It depends on your vantage point. There’s got to be a better way.

Striving for excellence motivates you; striving for perfection is demoralizing.

Commentary by terry Anker

So the nationally distributed periodical, Money Magazine, chose to name one of our one central Indiana communities as the “Best Place to Live in America.” At first blush, it seems like an amazing honor – it seems pretty impressive with the second look, too. Sure, we can discount the nature of how these places are selected for the award. And, we can claim that any town could win it; but, given the many thousands of municipalities that might qualify for the distinc-tion, only one took home the goods.

We live in a place that certainly spends money. It makes aggressive use of public-private partnerships. It waters plants and builds roundabouts. Yet, the taxes stay low and schools remain top-shelf. We have good leadership. The superintendent works tire-lessly – along with the rest of the school team – to deliver the very best that resources will allow. The mayor leads and the council over-sees. Each in a perfect, if at times somewhat heated, balance. This is an organism of many

parts and many subroutines. So, we, as thinking taxpayers, can ask if this

national attention is worth the effort. Would it be better to eschew the spotlight and pause at four-way stops like the rest of the world? Does it paint a fair portrait of our hometown? Or, does it only further serve to alienate us from folks who might chose to use the occa-sion to breed even more vitriolic stereotypes? Whichever, our streets, neighborhoods and communities are feeling the warmth of the media spotlight. Does the glow enhance our strengths or point to our weaknesses? Only time will tell. Regardless, it is up to us to live the part. Work harder to keep the streets safe and clean. And, expect to share the good thing we’ve got. Are we building a reputation or resting upon one?

We are the champions

Are you an entrepreneur? Do you know an entrepreneur? Do you or the one you know want to find out about something we believe to be ultra-cool? If you answered, “Yes,” then avail yourself (or tell your acquaintance to do likewise) of 16,000 square feet of Hamilton East Library’s space dedicated to attraction of high-impact ventures. Or, at least investigate it. It’s all part of Launch Fishers, yet another ini-tiative to distinguish our vibrant town. It’s the town’s $350,000, shared-office-space/business-incubator effort to retain the best and brightest entrepreneurs. Start-ups are prevalent here, and Launch Fishers, with a collegial corner-coffee-shop vibe, could prove the perfect venue for all the creative ideas and energy in our midst. It will provide a boost to the town’s economy, if only in a small way; still, it’s something, and it’s positive. Being late-stage entrepreneurs ourselves, we have a soft spot for the project, which will have three levels of “accommoda-tions” – as low as $100 a month - and a separate entrance on the north side of the library. The town is committing an additional $125,000 for first-year operations. Kudos to all involved! We urge you (or your acquaintance) to explore the possibilities.

ACADEMIC SKILLSMAKE THISYOUR CHILD’SBEST SCHOOLYEAR EVER

VIEWS Opinion

Commentary by Danielle wilson

I have glimpsed my future, and I am afraid. I’m speaking, of course, about parenting teenag-ers, particularly girls. Recently, I’ve been treated to a preview of what my life will be like in a few short years. Someone help me.

My husband and I insist that our children play a sport, and our 11-year-old daughter hasn’t really found anything to her liking. Soccer lasted a few years until the practices became too intense, while volleyball and gymnastics were dropped after only six weeks. She shot down tennis, her twin brother denied her swimming (that’s his sport), and we decided not to press for ice hockey. That left cross country.

Three weeks before the season began, I took her out jogging, knowing she needed some prep work. She made it a half mile before the tears appeared, along with emphatic requests to stop. I reacted with tough love, then empathetic en-couragement and finally outright bribery. Noth-ing worked. When this pattern continued for our next few runs, I suggested she reconsider ice hockey. “No! I want to run cross country!” OK.

Her attitude oscillated more extremely once official team practices started. She’d be sick to her stomach with anxiety beforehand, begging me to let her skip “just this once,” but when I’d pick her up afterwards, she’d say she was

starting to like it. By nightfall, we’d be back to hating cross country. Ugh – this was too confus-ing. Sick to my stomach from her indecision, I caved. “But you’ll have to tell your coaches in person and find another sport to play.” (I am not above using guilt and manipulation to my advantage.)

Two days before D-Day, I was met with noth-ing short of a tantrum. She was not going to practice, period, and I couldn’t make her! Wan-na bet? I ignored her hysterical weeping and demanded she get her fanny into the van. She cried the entire way there, periodically stomping her feet and shrieking, “I’m not going! I hate it! I hate it!” Though she stopped short of actually screaming “I hate you!” the sentiment was defi-nitely implied.

To her credit, she managed to pull herself together and complete practice. Then she an-nounced she was officially joining. What? Who? What happened to, “I hate you for making me do this!”? But such is the emotional roller coaster of a young girl. And she’s only 11. I’m so in trouble. Peace out.

A grim future with teens

VIEWS Laughs

Commentary by Dick wolfsie

I hoped this week that when our new carpet arrived, I’d get an idea for a column, but the process was uneventful. I kept trying to make the installers laugh, but they pretty much just stared at the floor. The Olympics are over, so it’s too late for my jokes about the Uzbekistan/Bulgaria field hockey match.

The presidential election is always good for humor. Four years ago, I watched a lot of TV coverage of the contest, but at the time nothing funny occurred to me, so I’m not optimistic this year. Occurring is exactly what the great humor-ists like Jon Stewart and Jerry Seinfeld have to do. They walk around the house, office, or su-permarket, or read a newspaper until something occurs to them. Great humorists have always done this. Maybe it never occurred to you.

I decided to start occurring in the basement. I really shouldn’t call it a basement. When we moved in the house, it was a basement, but we spent $15,000 to “finish” it. Actually, we finished 75 percent of the basement and left 25 percent for storage. It occurred to me that the 75 percent we finished was being used the exact same way as the 25 percent for storage. And then it occurred to me that I blew 15 grand. I decided to go upstairs. Two occurrences were more than I could afford.

Attics are always full of interesting artifacts that bring back memories. I could rummage

around the attic, try on some old clothes, look at scrapbooks, and read through old letters. Something funny would certainly occur to me there. This seemed like the perfect plan. Then it occurred to me: We don’t have an attic.

I was getting desperate. My plan had failed. I was doing a heck of a lot of occurring, yet it was all essentially humorless. But there was one place I had not yet occurred – a place just ripe for a funny occurrence: the kitchen. I raced into the room and swung open the refrigerator door. Suddenly, dozens of good things started occur-ring to me: how many food items had passed their expiration date; how many tasteless non-fat foods were in our fridge. I was in heaven. I told my wife all my funny occurrences.

“That’s great, Dick. But Dave Barry, Art Bu-chwald, Andy Rooney, and Jerry Seinfeld have already written about that very topic. In fact, if I remember correctly, so have you.”

“Yes, I was having trouble occurring, so I simply reoccurred."

In 2005, Cynthia Collins, Don Farrell and Judy Fitzgerald, three professional performers, traveled from New York City and founded the Actors Theatre of Indiana. Despite the existence of several other theater companies in the area, ATI has one primary difference: It is the only professional Equity theater company in Ham-ilton County. This key distinction is not only visible behind the scenes, but also on the stage.

“The main difference between amateur and professional theater is that it is a hobby for one group, and the other is made up of paid, union

actors that do it for a living,” said Collins.Membership in the Actor’s Equity Assoca-

tion, a labor union founded in 1913, is viewed mostly as a sign of the actor’s success. Equity actors are viewed by others in the field as truly being a professional.

“The union was initially meant to protect the actors, but now more than anything, it legiti-mizes them,” said Farrell.

“When you get that union card, it shows you are invested. It’s very much the equivalent to a master’s or doctorate in other professions. It really is,” said Fitzgerald.

Between seasons, all three of ATI’s cofound-ers routinely audition for and perform in pro-fessional shows throughout the country, allow-ing them to work with other professional actors and crews which they can bring to Indiana when the time is right.

“We are actively engaged in what is going on across the country, in terms of theater,” said Farrell who had returned from a professional perfor-mance in Pennsylvania and another in Blooming-ton only days prior. “We are constantly able to create something fresh and new by bringing out so much talent from so many different places.”

“It’s everything. It’s the entire product from stem to stern that is invigorated by all of this great talent,” said Fitzgerald.

Operating as a not-for-profit organization, ATI may not always have the set and studio space of other theater companies in the area, but they promise they have the talent.

“I would rather have a great actor on a bare stage than a bad actor surrounded by bells and whistles,” said Collins.

“After seeing our shows, a lot of our subscrib-ers go to other shows and then they really begin to understand the difference between profes-sional and community,” said Collins.

During the last year, ATI’s focus on professional talent has proven quite successful. The number of season subscription holders has increased by more than 50 percent, and may double before the end of the company’s upcoming eighth season.

“We’re excited to have the community sup-porting us. The future is very bright for ATI,” said Farrell. “We are expanding and continuing to grow daily.”

Join the cast of “Gypsy” in the Studio theatre at the Center for the Perform-ing Arts after the September 7 per-formance for desserts and drinks to celebrate the inaugural performance of Ati’s 8th Season! tickets to the opening night performance and after party are available for $28 by using promotion code AtiCurrEnt28 at www.actorsthe-atreofindiana.org.

“lawless” – In theaters Friday, a bootlegging gang is threatened by au-thorities who want a cut of their profits in this film starring Shia LeBeouf set in Depres-sion-era Virginia.

“Madden nFl 13” – Available in stores today, this year’s installment of the classic football franchise boasts a new physics driven anima-tion system as well as a new Connected Careers system. Xbox 360, Play-station 3, Wii, Playstation Vita – $60.

“havoc and Bright lights” by Alanis Moris-sette – In stores and avail-able for download today, the latest studio album from singer-songwriter Alanis Morissette is her first release on Collective Sounds and features the single “Guardian.”

“the Possession” – In theaters Friday, a young girl is cursed by a mali-cious spirit after buying an antique box at a yard sale as her parents at-tempt to find a way to end the curse.

In 1663, the small Dutch colony of New Amsterdam, situated on the edge of the wilder-ness on present day Manhattan, is populated by Dutch, English and Native American inhabit-ants. It is a hardscrabble life for colonists in the New World, and many children become or-phans at an early age. They are taken under the care of the orphan master, Aet Visser, who finds families for the orphans and looks out for their welfare. However, several orphans have disap-peared and only Blandine van Couvering is con-cerned. An orphan herself, she is now a young woman with her own trading business. She and Edward Drummond, a British spy, join forces and investigate the mysterious circumstances. Meanwhile, the townsfolk start to whisper about the witika, the huge, ghastly creature from Na-tive American lore that haunts the woods and eats human flesh.

“The Orphan Master” is debut author Jean Zimmerman’s well-researched and richly de-tailed description of 17th century life in the Dutch colony of New Amsterdam. The histori-cal setting is vividly portrayed while the mys-

tery of the missing orphans contributes to the suspense. Readers should be forewarned that the brutal nature of the crime may be shock-ing; however, this is a compelling story of hu-man behavior and the harsh frontier. “Library Journal” describes it as “…a successful mix of historical fiction, spy thriller and horror.” Read-ers who liked Eliot Pattison’s Bone Rattler may enjoy this title.

In family law cases, there are times when one parent seeks a modi�cation of the custodial arrangement. As with any family law issue, if the parties agree to the modi�cation, they can enter into a formal agreement which outlines the terms of the modi�cation and �le the agreement with the Court for approval. Absent an agreement however, custody modi�cations can be dif�cult cases for the party requesting the modi�cation. This is due to the fact that under Indiana law, the party requesting the modi�cation has the burden to prove that (1) a substantial change in circumstances has occurred so as to warrant the modi�cation of custody and that (2) such modi�cation is in the best interest of the child(ren).

Keep in mind there are two forms of custody: physical and legal. A party may request to modify either physical custody, legal custody, or both. When a party requests a modi�cation of custody, the Court must �nd that both elements of the applicable statute have been satis�ed. This can be a dif�cult burden for the requesting party to meet. For instance, a change in the non-custodial parent’s circumstances is not a substantial and continuing change so as to warrant a modi�cation of custody. So a change in the non-custodial parent’s circumstances – better job, better home, more stable overall – will not in and of itself be suf�cient to modify custody.

The most common arguments that successful modi�cations rely upon involve the safety and/or well-being of the child in question.The most extreme cases involve abuse of a child. Also, a showing that the health of the child has been compromised

can support a request to modify custody. Less dramatic factors, such as a signi�cant decline in academic performance, can also be persuasive

With respect to legal custody, a modi�cation from joint legal custody to sole legal custody may be appropriate if it is shown there has been a breakdown in communications between the parents such that they can no longer communicate with one another to make the child-related decisions. The breakdown in communication can involve verbally or electronically abusive comments, or could simply be a failure of one parent to participate in decision-making that negatively impacts the child (e.g. missed sign-up deadlines).

Custody modi�cations are not readily granted as courts prefer to see custodial arrangements with children to remain consistent. If you are considering requesting a custody modi�cation, you would be well advised to seek the assistance of counsel specializing in family law.

Uncertainties about the long term effects of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to uphold the Affordable Care Act have many doctors and healthcare administrators in limbo, but there is one group who swiftly jumped into action after the July decision – scam artists.

Scams targeting seniors are nothing new – a 2011 MetLife study on elder financial abuse estimated an annual financial loss by senior vic-tims at more than $2.9 billion – but the flurry of attention and confusion surrounding the AHA has led to particularly pernicious ones in recent months.

Scams targeting seniors tend to fall into one of three major areas: identity theft, Medicaid/Medicare and medication fraud, and financial exploitation. According to Sid Kirchheimer, who writes a regular Scam Alert column for the AARP, the current healthcare climate is allowing scammers a chance to do all three.

“Whenever a federal program is in the news — and sometimes when it’s not — scam-mers surface with another government impostor ruse, trying to get your money and personal information for identity theft,” Kirchheimer wrote in a July 20 piece for AARP.

To do so, Kirchheimer continued, thieves “masquerade as Medicare or Social Security em-ployees who need to update or verify” your data. Scammers have also been known to pretend to be FDA, DEA and IRS agents.

Seniors also make great targets for scams because they are unlikely to report the crime,

according to Ed Hutchinson, director of the National Association of Triads, part of the Na-tional Sheriffs’ Association. Hutchinson notes an AARP study which reported that only 25 percent of scam victims over the age of 55 have ever reported the crime to police.

“These seniors may be afraid to be seen as vul-nerable by the law and those in a position to tell them that, perhaps, they are not fit to continue living by themselves. It’s a perceived threat of a loss of independence that drives many to keep quiet,” said Hutchison.

Hutchinson acted as an expert source in the development of a “Senior Fraud Protection Kit,” alongside Home Instead Senior Care, which has

New healthcare law, new scams targeting seniorsoffices serving the North Indianapolis area. The kit includes advice and assessment tools for determining how at-risk your se-nior loved ones might be for scams.

“More local seniors than ever (are) at risk of losing their life savings, their homes and their trust in others,” said Jeff Sewell, owner of the North Indianapolis Home Instead office. “We’re pleased to provide the tools to help family caregivers as well as seniors ward off increasingly cunning con artists and their elaborate schemes to defraud local adults.”

To obtain a free Senior Fraud Protec-tion Kit, contact the Home Instead Senior Care office serving North Indianapolis, Fish-ers and Carmel at 317-252-4472.

While scams targeting seniors can take many forms, the AARP has devised a list of 10 warn-ing signs to look for to help aging adults pro-tect themselves from would-be crooks:

• Hyping the offer• Asking lots of personal questions• Telling you that you’ve won a prize – but

must pay to receive it• Warning you that if you don’t pay right

away, you’ll lose the deal• Failing to tell you where your donations

will go• Telling you the offer is secret• Providing no written information• Using fear• Getting a foot in the door• Using bait and switch

Don’t leave your senior loved ones and their financial security vulnerable to scam artists

SlEEP in – It’s a known fact that people tend to sleep less as they age – as little as five to six hours for those over 60, compared to 11 or 12 as a toddler. However, studies show 10 hours of sleep per night are still recommended, even if you have to piece it together. - www.home-remedies.com

CARMEL, Ind.– The Stratford, a retirement community located in Carmel, Ind., an-nounced today that Dr. Kevin Helms with Advanced Healthcare Associates will serve as the community’s new medical director.

According to The Stratford’s Executive Director Sam Carrillo, the relationship is designed to improve care coordination between the continuing care retirement community and local hospitals such as St. Vincent Carmel and IU Health- North, the Indiana University hospital located less than 10 miles from The Stratford.

“Research by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services consistently suggest that we can dramatically improve the quality of our assisted living, skilled nursing and memory care services by working more closely with local acute-care providers,” said Carrillo. “Dr. Helms’ experience as a former internist at IU North who helped develop their transitional care program will be an enormous asset to our community.”

Transitional (or coordinated) care is a new model gaining momentum among acute-care providers throughout the country as they struggle to find a way to prevent unnecessary re-hospitalizations by providing better care outside of expensive hospital settings. Transitional care models take a holistic approach to evaluating the quality of care a person receives by looking at the entire care episode – from their initial admittance to a hospital to their health outcomes up to 90 days following their discharge from the hospital.

The Stratford Hires Medical Director to Focus on Transitional Care Partnerships.

Since older adults are particularly vulnerable following an admission or discharge from a hospital, long-term care providers, especially those who offer skilled nursing services, are working more closely with hospitals to improve the process.

Dr. Helms is Board Certified in Internal Medicine and graduated from Indiana University’s School of Medicine in 1997. Before joining Ad-vanced Healthcare Associates, he served as an Internal Medicine, Pulmonary and Critical Care Hospitalist at IU Health – North for 12 years. Dr. Helms is a member of the American Medical Directors Association and the Indiana State Medical Society.

For more information about the transitional care options available at The Stratford contact the community by phone at 317-733-6601 or by visiting www.Stratford-Living.com.

About The Stratford The Stratford is an active retirement community located in the Vil-lage at WestClay which helps members live longer, healthier and hap-pier lives by offering an array of amenities including maintenance- free living, daily fine dining, weekly housekeeping, a nationally rec-ognized wellness program and continuing-care health services. Members can choose from a variety of floor plans including single- family cottage homes and condominium-style villas. Assisted living, Alzheimer’s care and skilled-nursing rooms are also available for those who need to make a transition from independent living. More information about The Stratford can be found by visiting www.Stratford-Living.com.

DOUGH InsuranceCommentary by Jamie ianigro

Question from Clair l. from Carmel: One of my kids graduated college in the spring and has yet to find a job. Are there insurance issues that I need to be concerned about? This situation seems to be pretty common these days.response from Jamie ianigro:

The down economy has hit everyone, but it’s really punished the folks graduating from col-lege the last couple of years. You trigger some insurance issues anytime someone moves into your home. You could also be heading towards some health insurance issues depending on the age of your children. Let’s start with the prop-erty and liability issues though.

Personal liability is the big issue that arises with grown kids. Everyone has a legal responsibility to handle the damage they cause to other people and their property. It can be anything from injur-ing someone accidently in a recreational sport to misjudging the wind and felling a tree into a neighbor’s house. The liability falls right back on your homeowner’s policy if you or your child does something like that. The problem that can arise is where your grown kid actually lives. Maybe all of their stuff is under your roof, but are they sleeping there every night? Are they paying you rent?

You might consider getting a renter’s policy in their name. It has the benefit of property cover-age, but the main benefit is that there will be no fight over liability coverage if a conflict arises. This is an important issue, and verifying with your independent agent that you and your grown kids are protected is a quick and easy thing to do.

Health insurance is the other major issue that affects grown children that not eligible for their own coverage. The Affordable Care Act extended the age limit that children can stay on a parent’s health plan to age 26. 

Many options at many price points are still available once someone passes the age restriction. Independent insurance agents are usually able to help you secure an individual health policy and help weigh your options. Going without coverage is an absolute last resort option. Having an emer-gency surgery or medical situation can be a crip-pling financial blow without some kind of health insurance. It is extremely risky and will make it very difficult to get quality coverage in the future.

Do I need insurance on my grown children?

Commentary by Jordan Fischer

Question: “I’ve always had trouble using af-fect and effect correctly. What is the proper way to use them?

Answer: The simple answer here is that, 90 percent of the time, affect with an “a” is a verb and effect with an “e” is a noun.

For example, to use affect, you might say: “This year’s drought has negatively affected my tomato plants.” Conversely, to use effect, you would say: “The drought has had a negative ef-fect on my tomato plants.”

To look at it another way, to affect something is to take action to influence it. An effect is the resulting influence.

When European explorers came to the Americas, for example, they affected the native populations by bringing in new diseases. The effect was sickness and death due to new strains of illness like small pox.

To help you remember the common noun us-age of effect, try to figure out if it would require an article (“a,” “an” or “the”) before the word. If you would say “an effect,” you’ll want to go with effect with an “e.”

Things get a little hairier, however, with the other, less-common uses of affect and effect. When affect is used as a noun, it refers to feelings and emotions, or the appearance thereof. You will see this word used sometimes in reference to court cases as psychiatrists analyze a defendant’s

demeanor. After the recent shootings in Colora-do, many news outlets reported on the flat, emo-tionless affect of James Holmes, the man charged with the crime. Wonderfully enough, you can also use affect in this way as a verb as well, for example: “Heath Ledger affected a psychotic de-meanor for his role as the Joker.”

Finally, we come to effect used as a verb, which is tricky enough that many dictionaries even define it this way: “to produce as an effect.” Helpful, right?

I find the easiest way to remember this usage is to think of it as bringing about a specific change or accomplishment. A new helmet law might, for example, effect a 10 percent reduction in head trauma in motorcyclists. A contestant on “The Biggest Loser” might effect a 100-pound weight loss – which, of course, would affect his or her figure. In this usage, you will find often that ar-ticle we looked for earlier after the verb instead of before it (“effect a change” versus “an effect”).

Affect and effect still be tricky, even if you have the rules down. But, if you look for ar-ticles, and try to keep in mind where the action is going, your grammar should remain effective … most of the time.

Using affect/effect effectively

INSIDE & OUT Outdoors

lanscaping by randy Sorrell

What could possibly be more romantic, pro-vocative and inviting than a warming fire feature on a cool evening? It’s a fantastic way to create mood, kids dig it and couples seem to migrate closer to each other when the flames begin to dance. There is likely a fire feature for you, re-gardless of your preferred style

nAturAlBoulder fire pits speak volumes to an outdoor

living space. They create an instantly relaxed atmosphere and work well in both casual and semi-formal areas. We love to sneak them into the side of a stone patio straddling the lawn so chairs can be snuggled up to them as boulders meet nature. They’re very cost-effective and leave space in the budget for other amenities that may get appreciated more, like night light-ing or an upgrade to a travertine patio instead of traditional pavers.

FOrMAlOf course, everyone would love a dreamy

outdoor fireplace constructed of brick and mor-tar to echo the house with a limestone mantel and bluestone inserts for detail. But, cost can get in the way. These serious structures require as much effort below ground as they do above with concrete footers and a truck-load of cinder block. Well-planned construction details are critical so that the smoke actually finds its way

in the chimney instead of the patio living space. Smoke inhalation is no fun.

Gas is an appreciated convenience that triples the usage and enjoyment. Its flames can be employed as a simple starter or for the warming impact as well, avoiding the aftertaste of burnt wood as it twists its way through rustic cobble or eclectic tumble glass.

Your home will decide the preferred materi-als, as well as the selection of a natural or formal setting. Expect to savor the warmth, the urge to snuggle and the laughter that marries itself to fire features.

Fire features bring you closer

INSIDE & OUT Indoors

Commenaty by Dave Decker

Whether you are building from a blank page or renovating an existing space, creating your dream kitchen is an exhilarating journey, and at times a huge undertaking. It is one that will have a profound ripple effect throughout the entire home. As the kitchen acts as the ground-ing space for our lives, a calm, organized space benefits every other room in the home. How-ever, renovating a kitchen is no small task and requires a near-infinite amount of planning and patience coupled with an ability to be flex-ible and go with the ebbs and flows the project presents. The more time you spend in the think-ing, preparing and design collection phase, the greater the likelihood that you’re going to be extremely pleased with the end result.

Just as any successful company has a vision and clear mission statement that acts as a compass to point it toward an end goal, so should homeown-ers. This will allow you to stay focused on the larg-er picture and not get sidetracked in the process.

The first step is deciding the feel and look you want for your dream kitchen. If you are not sure what this entails, spend a good amount of time re-searching the Web and showrooms in your area to see what draws your attention. Whether it is sleek and modern, or traditional and timeless, a design theme you are drawn to will begin to take shape and emerge. Also, do not forget to consult a de-

signer that is specifically trained in this area. They not only offer expertise in the visionary process, but a professional kitchen designer can introduce you to new product lines that are not only gor-geous in your space, but also fit your budget.

It is also important to know your needs. Is it more storage you desire? Better flow with new appliances and an updated look and feel? All of the above? Having a clear motive for undertak-ing such a massive project can make sure your budget is allocated correctly and realistically and will help you get over any hurdles. Rather than thinking of your budget as a limiting factor in this process, choose to look at it as a guiding tool that will help you pinpoint your priorities. That way, when the final nail is in place, you can feel confident you chose the most important features to allow a dream on paper to become a reality.
