Say what you will about author George R.R. Martin and HBO’s ad-aptation of his epic fantasy series, but they’re willing to take big storytelling chances. That narrative brashness continues in sea-son three, which sees the entire continent of Westeros split into different warring factions. It’s full of surprises and unexpected character development, with fan favorites brought low and the hissable Lannister clan seemingly triumphant. Read more at cur-rentnightandday.com

A developer plans to build a 185-unit senior-living apartment facility northeast of St.Vincent Carmel Hospital. The new apartment complex would be known as Woodland Terrace and feature a mix of 87 independent-living apartments, 82 assisted-living units with available nursing staff and 16 living quarters for people suf-fering from Alzheimers or dementia.

As of today a decision on a proposed weapons ordinance in Carmel has likely died a quick death in the city council. The ordinance had sought to regulate the use of pellet, air and BB guns and other non-regulated types of weapons within city limits. But by a unanimous vote at the Feb. 6 utilities, transportation and public safety committee meeting, a group of three city councilors opted to send the ordinance back to the city council with a negative recommendation.

COMMUNITY

By Karen Kennedy • [email protected]

The costumes are designed, the plane tickets have been bought and the logistics are falling into

place. The Carmel High School Ambassa-dors will be ambassadors in the truest sense of the word when they represent

Carmel in Europe April 2 to 12. But those of us who must remain stateside will

still have a chance to see the show choir’s routine before it goes, when the group presents “An Evening with the Ambassadors” on March 14 and 15.

“We are working as hard and as fast as we can to get ready,” said director Lamonte Kuskye. “Not only are we playing catch-up after having lost about 20 hours of rehearsal time due to the weather, but we also just found out that they don’t use risers over there like we do, which means that Ron (Morgan, the group’s choreographer) had to re-stage many of the numbers.”

Fundraising has been a constant task since last year, in the form of a cabaret and silent auction, car wash and jam sales. The trip will cost $3,700 per student, and 48 students are in the group.

“I think we’re on target,” Kuskye said. “The parents

have been very involved, and we’re so grateful for the grant from the township. It has really taken a village.”

The group (which will also include 50 parents and Carmel High School Principal John Williams) will spend five days in London, where it will perform with a London-based show choir called the West End Kids, and five days in Paris, where it will perform at Disneyland Paris.

“An Evening with the Ambassadors” will include a wide variety of numbers ranging from classical to pop, samba to swing and rock to Broadway. There will also be a salute to European travel, including a “Mary Poppins” medley and the famous French Can-Can.

“This is an incredible group of kids, and this will be the trip of a lifetime for them,” Kuskye said. “I took a similar trip in college, and it changed my life. They’ll get to meet other kids who share their passion. It’s not always just about competing — it’s about making dreams come true.”

February is American Heart Month. That means St.Vincent Health is redoubling its efforts toward public education about the importance of heart health awareness and

taking the steps needed to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Most people aren’t aware that heart disease is the number one killer of both men and women in this country. That fact is often a great revelation, especially regarding women’s health. Although it’s a common belief that breast cancer is the number one cause of death in women, the number of fatalities due to heart disease is actually about three times greater. And becuase heart disease strikes both men and women, it’s an equal opportunity problem.

An estimated one out of every three people is affected by some element of heart disease. But the good news is that there are preventive steps you can take to help improve your chances.

The � rst step is to know your risks. It’s essential to have an assessment with your primary care physician about the various risk factors for heart disease. This includes smoking history, family history, weight, cholesterol, blood pressure, conditions such as obesity or diabetes, and other factors.

Once you know your risks, the next step is to minimize the ones that are controllable. Family history is an example of a factor we

can’t control. But even though we can’t pick our parents, we can manage our blood pressure. We can avoid smoking. We can exercise and keep our weight down.

In short, it’s all about starting with the basics: a conversation with your primary care physician to help assess your risks. Then, based on your risk pro� le, your primary care provider may recommend lifestyle changes or medication to reduce those risks, testing to further identify those risks, such as certain imaging tests (coronary calcium scoring, stress testing, etc.), or referral to a cardiologist for further evaluation.

American Heart Month is a great time to make heart health awareness top-of-mind. Of course, for cardiologists, every month is heart awareness month, but we’re a little more vocal about it in February. St.Vincent Health is behind American Heart Month in a very big way thanks to our support of the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women initiative. That’s our educational and community outreach campaign to help raise awareness that women are as prone to heart disease as men.

2014 is actually a very special milestone for women’s heart health. This year is not only the tenth anniversary of Go Red for Women, it’s the tenth year St.Vincent Health has been the presenting sponsor.

Talk to your physician to fi nd out if a HeartScan is right for you. To schedule a HeartScan at St.Vincent Fishers Hospital, just call 866-432-4457. And learn more at BestHeartCare.com.

Atthe St.Vincent Bariatric Center of Excellence, we realize everyone is different, and that losing weight successfully is a unique process for each individual. That’s why we offer FREE 11-weekly weight loss seminars as an opportunity to talk to the real experts — and to get real answers about the options, benefi ts, risks, and side effects of bariatric surgery. Each seminar lasts roughly 90 minutes and it will cover:

A quiet war of wills has been waged for the past month between the Carmel Redevelopment

Commission and the Clerk-Treasurer along with some members of the city coun-

cil. This time, it’s in reference to the City Center parking garage.

The parking garage, which is currently val-ued by the CRC at $13.8 million, was purchased by the CRC from Pedcor for $22.5 million in 2011, according to documents provided by the Clerk-Treasurer.

The original purchase con-tracts drafted by CRC attorney Karl Haas called for three separate debt instruments in the amounts of a main $17 mil-lion loan and $4.5 million and $1 million secondary loans.

The $17 million debt instru-ment was rolled into the refinanced CRC debt in 2012, and the two secondary debts remained payable to Village Financial, a subsidiary of Ped-cor, according to City Councilor Luci Snyder.

‘We have to keep paying him’In early January, Clerk-Treasurer Diana Cordray

raised concerns regarding two CRC invoices from Village Financial for interest on the two second-ary loans. The invoices totaled $83,709.56.

Cordray said she felt that there was not ad-equate documentation for the invoices, brought those concerns to a member of the city council and withheld payment. The original loan agree-ments contained charts that showed no principal payments would be due until 2019 with blank entries for the previous years.

After the city council agreed to bail out the CRC in 2012, the contracts were amended to reflect only the two secondary debts, but the council was assured that no substantive chang-es were made to the agreement. Thus the confu-sion when interest invoices arrived.

The council requested clarification from CRC president Bill Hammer, but Hammer deferred to CRC at-torney Karl Haas.

After a series of emails, a meeting was ultimately called which took place Feb. 10 at City Hall. The meeting was attended by CRC members Bill Hammer and Dave Bowers, their finan-cial and legal counsel, Loren Matthes of Umbaugh and Associates, Karl Haas and Bruce Donaldson, Cordray and her public policy consultant, Mike Shaver, council president Eric Seidensticker, coun-cilor Luci Snyder, Mayor Jim Brainard and acting CRC executive director Steve Engleking.

“It was obvious at yesterday’s meeting that the documents in question were so complex and often conflicting that it took the scrutiny and expertise of a dozen people to figure them out,” Snyder said. “At the end of the meeting I asked Karl (Haas) if he does this as a game, just to see how long it takes us to justify an action relying

on his documents which often do not use the same terminology. But perhaps the answer is simpler; if everything is so complex, we have to keep paying him just to understand what we’ve done or need to do. He is responsible.”

‘You can’t serve two masters’In response to requests for clarification on the

invoices, Matthes sent an email stating that the amended agreements called for interest to be paid on loans beginning in 2014 if surplus Pedcor TIF existed, and confirmed that the invoices were correct, due and payable.

In the same email, Matthes also stated that her firm was retained by Pedcor in the fall of 2013 to make the calculation of the anticipated repayment of the secondary agreements.

“In any financial transaction, you want to have separate people representing both sides,” Seiden-sticker said. “We have a case where the same firm is generating the amount due that’s verifying the amount due. You can’t serve two masters.”

“I do not see this as a conflict because it is an objective calculation that all these parties are required to make in accordance with the Trans-action Agreement,” Matthes said. “Umbaugh is an independent Certified Public Accounting firm and an independent Financial Advisory firm, and also uniquely qualified to make/verify this calculation because of our experience with the CRC’s tax increment and outstanding obligations.”

‘Nobody asked us’ Members of the CRC board and the mayor

have questioned whether Cordray has the au-thority to withhold payment.

“The reason we are confused is because Diana never asked us for any documentation,” CRC board member Jeff Worrell said. “If she was missing documentation she could have just called us and asked for it. I have a copy of the contract myself.”

Cordray maintains that her job is to pay bills that are accompanied by appropriate documen-tation, and it is the job of every department in the city to provide that documentation. Cordray stated that when she questioned CRC financial consultant Mike Lee about supporting docu-ments, he simply replied via email that the in-voices were valid.

“I’ve been doing this job for seventeen years now, and I really felt in my gut that something was not right,” said Cordray. “Assuring me it’s valid and showing me it’s valid are two different things.”

“I support the Clerk-Treasurer withholding payment on any check - City or CRC - when she has questions,” said City Councilor Sue Finkam. “Additionally, I believe if a problem cannot be resolved, the Clerk-Treasurer should notify the entire council, in writing. In this instance, Diana notified only one council member. We should continue together to work on matters of commu-nication and transparency.”

“But ultimately, the council does not have the authority to deny a disbursement that the CRC has approved,” Seidensticker said. “The check will be released, and the taxpayers may have to pay the late fee associated with the resulting confu-sion surrounding these bills.”

COMMUNITY

In other news: The school board got back to its roots and conducted a true workshop instead of using the first meeting of the month as another business meeting. Board members, the superintendent and other administrators listened to a presentation on the challenges associated with special education stu-dents who display challenging behaviors while attempting to learn. An excellent example from the round-table was when the presenters showed a video clip of a naval commander ordering an approaching radar blip to change its course 15 degrees to the north. The other entity radioed back suggesting the naval ves-sel change its course 15 degree to the south. This incensed the naval commander, who, with full bluster, ordered the approaching blip on the radar to alter its course. The blip replied, “But we’re a lighthouse.” The point was that often it’s the educator who needs to alter course. It was a rare moment of revelation.

What happened: Supt. Nicholas Wahl addressed how the district planned to make up snow days.

What happened: School board member Patricia Hackett offered a conference update.

What it means: Carmel schools need to make up three of this year’s six snow days. There appear to be two options. The first entails adding three days to the end of the school year – not on President’s Day or around spring break. The second option is to lengthen school days. However, this option would cut into teachers’ scheduled planning and preparation time. The hope, though, is that longer days before ISTEP testing in the first week of March would help student preparation.

What it means: Hackett attended a conference on collective bargaining, coincidentally held in Carmel, that was hosted by the Indiana School Board Association and the Indiana Association of Public School Superintendents. The presentations at the conference helped to clarify state laws on collective bargaining, make the process more transparent through the use of Gate-way, focus the school board’s role in determining whether contracts would result in deficit financing and provide guidelines for how non-salary benefits should be outlined in contracts.

What’s next: Wahl will make a determina-tion after raising the issue with teachers, Glenda Ritz and the Indiana Department of Education.

What’s next: No fur-ther ac-tion is needed.

It started as a warm early summer day in a peaceful downtown Carmel. It was June 1900.

Before the day was over the town’s deputy constable and a visiting street preacher lay dead

in a tragic and very public double homicide. The shooting deaths briefly put Carmel in the

national news.T.J. “Cyclone” Johnson, described as an “eccen-

tric and defiant street preacher” from Kentucky, came to Carmel that summer to hold a series of tent revivals which were popular at the time. He set up shop on a vacant lot at the corner of First Ave. and Third Street N.W.

Things did not go well almost from the start. Varying accounts indicate that Rev. Johnson may have insulted various citizens from the pulpit or in other ways antagonized a portion of the community.

One night some young men went to the tent and perhaps taunted the preacher, who carried a shotgun among his belongings.

A shot was fired. It did no damage, but the police were notified and Johnson was cited for his actions. Shortly thereafter Johnson was scheduled to appear before the justice of the peace. Knowing Johnson’s demeanor, the town constable deputized William F. Carey to help take the preacher to court.

Court was held in a livery stable on West Main

Blame Kentucky for Carmel’s sole police fatality

Street just east of today’s Monon Trail. A crowd gathered to witness the proceedings.

Apparently unknown to anyone, Johnson was

armed with a revolver. As the hearing was about to begin the preacher pulled his gun and shot Carey, killing him almost instantly.

The bystanders were shocked and enraged. Some unknown member of the crowd pulled a gun and mortally wounded Johnson.

The unexpected event in a quiet, mostly Quaker community created a sensation. The county sheriff was called in to investigate. De-spite dozens of witnesses, the person who shot Johnson was never identified, probably protected by fellow townspeople.

In the following days rumors circulated to the effect that Johnson’s Kentucky relatives were coming to Carmel to look into the matter. To say the least, this put the community on edge. But the rumored visitors never appeared.

Carey, who had a wife and young children, was widely mourned and honorably buried in Carmel Cemetery.

Today a photo of Deputy Carey, the only Car-mel law enforcement officer ever killed in the line of duty, is found at police headquarters. And on West Main Street near the Monon, people can find the statue of a police officer.

The name badge reads W. Carey.

Fred Swift is a former member of the Carmel City Council, a former newspaper editor and a 60-year resident of Carmel. He currently serves as a board member of the Carmel Clay Historical Society.

By Robert Herrington • [email protected]

Fourteen-year-old Luke Broyle’s passion for filmmaking has led him to some amazing adven-

tures: raising a dozen baby ducks, traveling to Africa, mastering a zipline in the mountains of upstate

New York and meeting people across the globe. Just eight years after writing, directing and

acting in his film at age 6, Broyles is preparing to premiere his eighth feature film and has created 20 to 25 short films.

“I like how movies tell stories and are very captivating,” Broyles said, adding he enjoys film-making because it brings stories to life.

Broyles said he is inspired by directors Alfred Hitchcock and Steven Spielberg.

“With Hitchcock it’s the suspense and how he keeps (audiences) interested,” he said. “Spielberg is controversial in a good way. His movies seem a little ahead of their time.”

While making his nature documentary “Bird Brothers,” Broyles was challenged by Heartland Truly Moving Pictures founder Jeffrey Sparks to make a documentary about “someone you care about.” Broyles chose Michael McCarley, a friend from school. The upbeat journey follows him through surgeries to strengthen his legs as a result of cerebral palsy. The film earned Broyles the Schemmel Award from the Cerebral Palsy Association of Greater Indiana and was the 2010 REEL Teens Film Festival audience award winner.

“It was kinda easy (to film) because he knew me and was comfortable with me,” Broyles said.

peopleweBroyles’ feature films, which he has written, directed and, like Hitchcock, appeared in, include the “Swords and Shields” trilogy, “G,” “Michael,” “Bird Brothers,” “The Creature” and “Trapped.” For his next feature, Broyles said he is on his seventh draft of a historical fiction film.

Since 2010, Broyles’ films have appeared in 28 film festivals in Indiana, Michigan, Kentucky, Ala-bama, Utah, Colorado and Canada.

The Creekside Middle School eighth-grader’ eighth feature film, “Trapped,” is his first foray into the suspense/mystery genre.

“It’s about nine people who are trapped in a room and they have to figure out how to get out and who trapped them in the first place,” he said. “It was hard because you have to figure it all out – it’s a more complicated story.”

The cast of “Trapped” included seven new ac-tors and approximately 40 to 50 extras.

“Most were people I know from school, church, friends of my parents or were a part of past films,” he said.

Broyles said the movie’s idea came to him six years ago and he began writing the script two years ago. The 70-minute-long film was shot on Aug. 4 through 6 in the basement of Verity Insti-tute in Indianapolis.

“Trapped” will premiere Feb. 23 at the Mill Top Banquet & Conference Center, 802 Mulberry St. in Noblesville. Those interested in attending may visit www.facebook.com/TheCreaturebyLuke-Productions or e-mail [email protected]. Broyles asks that guests arrive at 3 p.m. for the free screening. A $5 VIP event will take place at 2:30 p.m. with actors, crew members and desserts.

This upcoming May 6 Republican primary will feature a rarity – a contested race for county

coroner.Candidates

John Chalfin and Roger Conn both have spent time work-ing as deputy coroners and would bring a wealth of diverse experiences to the role that Thurl Cecil currently occupies.

Chalfin currently works as a profes-sor at Ivy Tech and as a deputy coroner. He’s a certified death investigator.

During his career, he’s had a diverse array of experiences as a veteran of the U.S. Navy, and working as a manager at OmniSource, Capitol City Metals and Doler Jarvis, a COO of Kokomo Spring and a plant supervisor at Chrysler’s Ko-komo manufacturing center.

As a deputy coroner, Calfin said that families become like his patient.

“We try to counsel them and bring a little order out of chaos,” he said. “When a death hap-pens, the family isn’t ready.”

Chalfin said Hamilton County’s growing popu-lation has meant more work in the coroner’s office, and that he would work to maintain a system that keeps up with the pace.

“I feel I’m the best-qualified candidate academ-ically, administratively and medically. I would ask

for your vote,” he said. “I have the experience, and it’s current.”

Conn’s name might be recognizable to long-time Carmel residents – he served as police chief

from 1992-95. He spent 19 years on the force in all, retiring as a detective in 2002.

He also served as deputy coroner from 1985-2003. In 2002 he became the first certified death investigator in Ham-ilton County.

He currently works for a third-party retirement benefit company, and he worked for seven years as the business administrator for a local church after his retirement from the police force.

“I feel even the deceased need some-one to speak for them,” he said of the importance of coroners working with first-responders to gather evidence and pre-senting it in a factual way to tell a story.

“I would tell voters they need a coroner who is qualified and who can learn quickly and apply all the knowledge they have learned over the years,” Conn said. “If they look at my credentials or ask officers I have led in the past, they would see I am the most qualified for this position.”

But the race may come down to who gets the most endorsements in the months ahead from the various public safety agencies throughout the county. Both candidates are still working to complete their endorsement list at this time.

Throughout February, St. Luke’s United Meth-odist Church in Indianapolis plans to host a

photo exhibit that aims to play on its audience’s emotions.

The photos by human rights photog-rapher Katie Basbagill attempt to document the plight of the 300,000 Bihari people of Bangladesh.

When East and West Pakistan separated in 1971, neither Pakistan nor Bangladesh would claim the Bihari. They were left without passports in makeshift camps created by the Red Cross.

Their language and customs are different from those of the rest of the people in Bangladesh, which is a poor country. And 43 years later, they remain in the camps living in abject poverty.

The church’s photo exhibit is part of a fund-raising effort to boost the Indiana-based OBAT Helpers, a nonprofit group working to improve the lives of the Bihari.

Indiana resident Anwar Khan founded OBAT Help-ers. He said founded the organization after taking a trip to visit extended family in Bangladesh.

The conditions Khan found there astounded him and touched his heart. He knew he had to help.

His initial plan was to adopt a single family to support, but he quickly realized the need was much greater. “The range of things I witnessed was beyond even my imagination,” Khan said. “Sewers and latrines are used by hundreds,

which invites bacteria and spreads disease. On average there was one toilet per hundred people. Malnutrition was rampant.”

So in 2004, Khan, his family and his friends formed OBAT Helpers. The acronym is a nod of re-spect to his wife’s and his parents and contains the first letter of each of their first names.

“We are the only nonprofit organization in the U.S. devoted to the plight of the Bihari in Bangla-desh,” Khan said. “We are nonprofit, nonreligious and nonpolitical. This is a human rights issue.”

Currently, they raise about $350,000 per year, of which 90 percent directly benefits the Bihari camps.

Because of one man’s initial vision, OBAT Helpers has initiated safe water projects, with 500- to 600-foot deep wells to bypass surface contamination.

The group also runs 37 educational projects, two health clinics, three tutoring and two com-puter training centers, self-empowerment pro-grams, camp improvement programs, and water and sewage facilities.

They are educating approximately 2,000 chil-dren, many of whom hope to become teachers or medical workers.

Ninety percent of Bihari children surveyed by OBAT were found to be illiterate.

For more information about the exhibit, visit St. Luke’s United Methodist Church at 100 W. 86th St. in Indianapolis. For more information about OBAT Helpers call 203-0603 or visit www.obathelpers.org.

IU Health North hosted a benefit at the gorgeous Lucas Estate in Carmel on Jan. 8. The drive back to the estate was incred-ibly scenic — one of the first times I’ve really enjoyed looking at snow this winter. The brick driveway, fir trees, torches and waiting valets suggested the warm and lovely atmosphere inside.

Tracy Miller, Interim Director of Market-ing and full-time Director of the Office of Philanthropy, along with Joy Davis and Andrea Grgic, produced an enjoyable, well-organized and productive evening.

The IU Health Office of Philanthropy honored longtime Indiana business owner and philanthropist Marlyne Sexton as the major gift donor for the new rooftop gar-den at the IU North Hospital.

Additionally, ticket sales, donations and an art auction raised funds to benefit patient services. And Lucas Catering pre-pared an elegantly presented dinner.

Speed painter Dan Dunn surprised din-ner guests with a wild art performance that culminated in three paintings, each completed in fewer than five-and-a-half minutes. The paintings sold at a live auc-tion after dinner, and proceeds were do-nated to the hospital. A favorite local band, Henle and the Loops, provided after-dinner entertainment.

Approximately 150 people attended the gala, including many doctors and adminis-trators of the IU Health network. Dr. Jon Goble, CEO of IU North Central Region, provided the introductory speech during dinner, and Dr. Sheldon Weiss, co-chair of the gala, hosted. Indy racecar driver Ed Carpenter and his wife, Heather, gave personal and heartfelt talks regarding their connection to IU Health.

The evening was well represented by many notable IU Health physicians. Among them were Dr. Jon and Theresa Goble, Dr. Sheldon and Debbie Weiss, Dr. Jon and Lisa Brandt, Dr. Steve Horvath, Dr. Dan and Marilyn Evans, Dr. Anthony and Annette Sorkin, Suzanne Del Boccio, Dr. Michael and Susan Tsangaris, Dr. Randall and Karen Yust, Dr. Kevin Smith, Dr. Sean Trivedi, and Dr. Walter and Jody Virkus. Also attending was Jeffrey Patchen, CEO of the Children’s Museum.

Commentary by Jeff Worrell

I thought this week we might play a little game of “Where is she now?”

To get the game started, here is our first question: Who served as

librarian at Caramel Junior High School and then at Clay Junior High School from 1964 to 1990?

Give up? If you know your history and checked

out a book during those years, you should have answered Pat Helm. She is still a resident of Carmel, and I caught up with her while she fulfilled her Thurs-day morning ritual.

Since 1991, Helm has been a volunteer at St.Vincent Carmel Hospital. She is as-signed to the surgery waiting room, attending to anxious family members waiting for their loved one’s surgery to finish successfully.

She said, “I enjoy volunteering at the hospital. I like the people I meet and I especially like helping the families where I can. The doctors, nurses and other volunteers are wonderful.”

Her kindness shows in all that she does. As I walked up to her desk, I was greeted warmly, and she wanted to know how she could help me.

“That is how she treats everyone,” said Me-linda Wirstiuk, St.Vincent Carmel Hospital’s volun-

Former librarian donates her time

vOLUNTEErISM

teer supervisor. “Pat is a longtime volunteer and is very committed to providing the highest level of service for the hospital’s guests.”

The volunteer program at St.Vincent Carmel Hospital has over 290 regularly scheduled volun-teers carrying out various tasks around campus.

Wirstiuk said, “We could not provide the level of service we do without our talented volunteers. They give us the most precious thing they have:

their time. We are grateful.”When you see someone wearing a

pink jacket or red shirt, you know he or she is a member of the Volunteer Corps.

“Our volunteers treat this just like a job. If they are sick or can’t make their scheduled time to volunteer, they are al-ways concerned about how the patients or families will be affected,” Wirstiuk

said. “I am always amazed by their dedication.”As a librarian, Pat provided information and

showed people where to find it. She is still prac-ticing that same skill some 23 years after retiring as a St.Vincent volunteer.

Winston Long said that on the evening of Nov. 15, 2010, he made one of the biggest mistakes of his life.

Earlier in the evening he had attended a Carmel City Council meeting, and as vice president of Omni Centre for Public Media he

had lobbied the council not to make further cuts to public fund-ing for the government television channel his company produced content for.

Winston said he had felt a pressing feeling in his chest as he ascended the flight of stairs in city hall to the council chambers. But it went away, and he didn’t think anything of it.

After his testimony, Winston went home to prepare a dinner of oriental soup. His wife, Sandra Long, said that he appeared to be out of breath.

And at just that moment, the pain in Winston’s chest returned – and this time it stayed, radiating down his arms.

“I jumped up and asked Sandra to take me immediately to the heart center,” he said, thinking it would take the fire department more than five minutes to get to his Brookshire neighborhood house.

And as the medical response team could have begun lifesav-ing procedures on the spot, Sandra and Winston sped off into the night on Carmel’s empty streets in a race against time.

When they did make it to St.Vincent’s Heart Center, they were

fortunate enough not to have to wait, and the doctors began treating Winston immediately. Fortunate because within the fol-lowing 45 minutes, the hospital would admit five more patients suffering from heart attacks.

Any delay could have cost Winston his life because a heart at-tack is not a single event; it continues to damage the heart muscle until treated. Driving to the hospital lost valuable time and did ad-ditional damage to the heart.

‘Where your heart guides you’Natives of Birmingham, Ala., Winston and Sandra moved to Car-

mel in 1975 when he accepted a position as an associate professor of nursing at IUPUI.

But when he began doing consulting work focused on media productions, he found a new passion. And by the time he had gained tenure at the university, he decided to leave it all and pur-sue his own company – Omni Productions – full-time.

“You’ve got to go where your heart guides you,” he said. “That’s so important.”

And Winston and Sandra began their Indiana lives in Carmel right from the start.

“This is where you want to live,” Winston recalls Elizabeth Grossman, the dean of the IUPUI School of Nursing, telling him at the time.

Which was a leap of faith at the time because Carmel was largely an undeveloped community with cornfields as far as you could see, he said.

“I got involved in city affairs when Jane Reiman was mayor,” Winston said.

He said that at that time, Alabama was still considered a Demo-cratic state, and he was a registered member of that party. Well, Reiman needed to appoint two Republicans and a Democrat to the

newly formed Carmel Police Commission.“Mayor Reiman didn’t know any Democrats,” Winston recalls

then-police chief Jerry Lowe telling him.So with the appointment, he began serving his first four-year

tenure on the police commission until it was disbanded. When the commission was reconstituted as the police merit board in 2009, Winston was appointed again. He has also served on the cable and telecommunications commission and in other capacities within the city.

“If I’m able, I’m more than willing to serve where I’m needed,” Winston said.

‘I was on a long journey’Winston’s message now is this: “If someone has an urgent

medical need, he or she should call 911.”Immediate treatment wouldn’t have prevented the single com-

plete artery blockage and five partial blockages. But in cases of con-gestive heart failure – when the heart is no longer strong enough to maintain enough pumping strength to move blood through the veins – immediate treatment can prevent widespread damage.

In his case, doctors fixed the complete blockage with a stent and then spent the next week coming up with a treatment plan that would save his life.

“That’s when I first knew I was on a long journey,” Winston said.At the end of the week doctors performed a triple bypass sur-

gery, and two weeks later he was sent home to recuperate. He began making lifestyle changes that involved cutting out all

sodium – along with taking a huge helping of pills of many sorts. In October 2011 he had an AED and pacemaker installed in his

right shoulder, and in March 2012 he had a Left Atrial Pressure Monitor installed in his left shoulder.

With lifestyle changes and surgeries, he lost about 80 pounds

COMMUNITYand said he felt pretty good until late 2012.

At that point he had been a patient at the Cleveland Clinic Heart Center for about a year-and-a-half, but he had noticed a sudden severe lack of energy and feelings of weakness.

‘You no longer have a pulse’

The doctors at the Cleveland Clinic determined that Winston’s heart was giving out and that he needed a left ventricular assist device, commonly referred to as an LVAD.

The device is not a pacemaker. It is an internal pump that is attached to the heart through open-heart surgery and then pow-ered through an external device using a six-hour battery pack that the user has to wear at all times around the waist.

It’s the device that former vice president Dick Cheney had implanted in him before his 2012 heart transplant.

Prior to the surgery in March 2013, the doctors told Winston, “Don’t be surprised if you no longer have a pulse.”

The reason was that the constant spin-ning action inside the LVAD removes the rhythmic pulse that the heart muscles create.

But the surgery was a success, and the Longs added more devices and batteries to Winston’s bionic lifestyle.

“I was worried about going through a metal detector because I’d set it off like a Christmas tree,” Winston said. “It’s certain-ly better than the alternative. I was just thankful to be around every day and spend time with my family.”

Cutting the cordBy 2013 Winston and Sandra had been

making regular trips to Cleveland for more than two years. The car rides were filled with redundant vistas of flat land, corn-fields and trees.

But they were in for a dose of excite-ment – actually more of a shriek.

That was the piercing sound of the LVAD alarm that began going off every six min-utes in the start of July 2013. It was signal-ing a “low flow” error.

“It was going to wake me up no matter what I was doing,” Winston said of the sound that kept him sleep-deprived, on edge and restless.

The Cleveland Clinic eventually dispatched an emergency jet to come pick Winston up and fly him to Cleveland.

After a 45-minute flight, reality began to sink in.

With his heart now at a point of total failure and constant alarm sounds coming from the LVAD that was not functioning at all, Winston said he had one constant thought – he didn’t know what remained of his original heart with-out the LVAD’s help.

Doctors decided to cut the half-inch diameter cable going from the external controller to the pump attached to his heart. After the cord was cut, Winston felt no differently. Fortunately, what remained of his damaged heart continued to function.

But the only option at that point was a heart transplant.

‘A divine gift’“Some patients actually stay in the hospital

for months waiting on a donor organ,” he said. “But as the Lord would have it … no organ was available.”

It was July 3, 2013, and his doctors told him plainly that he simply had a few days left at best.

So Winston said goodbye to his family and waited.

But on July 4 – in Cleveland, of all places – a 26-year-old man died in a car wreck, and he was

an organ donor and a perfect match for Winston.“The heart was a divine gift,” he said.So on July 5 he said goodbye to his family a

second time – he knew there was a chance he would not wake up from the serious open-heart surgery needed to remove the devices from his body and then undergo the heart transplant.

But the 14-hour heart transplant surgery was deemed a success, until doctors found that an artery had ruptured in Winston’s chest. So he had to undergo another open-heart surgery to repair the damage – his fourth in three years.

“After all of this my doctor joked that they should have just put hinges on my chest with a clasp to close it up,” he said

He would spend five weeks recuperating at the Cleveland Clinic following the surgeries, but it was a small price to pay for a second chance at life.

“I let, over the years, the good life get me,” he said. “I’m not going to allow that to happen again.”

Winston Long lost a bit of weight during his hospital stay. (Submitted photo)

The Wall Street Journal, in tandem with NBC News, recently released results of national polling it did, and the results are at once stag-gering and encouraging. How can that be? Read on. Pollsters asked Americans if our nation is better, stagnant or worse off since President Barack Obama took office. An unthinkable (even to us) 68 percent of respondents said the presi-dent has steered the United States to a posi-tion that is worse than when he captured the Oval Office in the aftermath of George W. Bush’s bungled administration. Obama is in his sixth of eight years as our leader. It’s also amazing and heartening, the fact that 81 percent of respon-dents disapprove of the job Congress is doing and twice as many among those polled stated they hold negative views of the Republican Party. Good news, it seems, but for a voting community that needs a serious reset. Maybe it’s under way. Maybe the independents are finally good and fed up with the ineffectiveness of our president and the representatives and senators on both sides of the aisle. Is this the leading edge of a sea change? Are the indepen-dents coming to the fore in a meaningful way? We certainly would celebrate that.

Mr. Simmons summarily expressed his bra-vado by proclaiming in an expletive-laced tirade that he would beat Mr. Zimmerman to near death and complete his humiliation by evacuating himself on the body. Mr. Zimmerman, in his own display of modern manhood, has been seeking a boxing match like this one for some time and has been shopping for an opponent most likely to generate attention, and thus cash for himself.

Please forgive the use of rather coarse lan-guage in describing the interaction between these two humans; however, its expression printed here barely exposes the vitriol of what has actually been said. Thankfully the fight was canceled before the pandering could continues

Commentary by Terry Anker

Even as we recover from our collective disap-pointment that the big game didn’t provide us with adequate thrills, one is brought to contemplate the modern ethos surrounding the grand combat that is contemporary football. As we sit and listen to commentators compare these young athletes’ prowess to all manner of ancient warriors, the hyperbole is both amusing and concerning.

Last week a purveyor of such things an-nounced the looming exhibition boxing match of a pair of celebrities – or at least notorious humans. The promoter wanted to bring together George Zimmerman, the low-rent, armed neighborhood watch protagonist who shot an unarmed 15-year-old boy, and Earl Simmons, the multi-platinum-selling, bankrupt deadbeat dad of 12 (more pater-nity claims are being litigated), felon and movie star who presently calls himself DMX. Although there isn’t enough room in this column, perhaps in the entire newspaper, to fully come to grips with these men’s guilt or innocence against the various social expectations they have confronted, one can

Changes in store for Monon TrailIt looks like the southern portion of the

Monon Trail that runs through Carmel will get a facelift sometime this year.

Carmel Clay Parks and Recreation Director Mark Westermeier said the trail will be resur-faced with new asphalt due to normal wear and tear over the past 15 years.

But before the work can begin, the parks department – which manages the trail for the city – needs to construct a temporary detour route for runners and cyclists.

And need isn’t an overstatement, Wester-meier said.

In his experience, there have been multiple instances where trail users refused to stop moving forward.

The first was when construction equip-ment was placed on the trail and surrounded by a temporary chain link fence. “Mononers” proceeded to cut through the fence with bolt cutters and run through the zone like an ob-stacle course.

The second was when a utility pipe had to cross the trail, requiring a temporary trail to be cut and some fresh asphalt to be laid at night. The repairs took a little longer than expected and the asphalt was still drying by the time some early morning bicyclists refused warn-ings from workers and the visible construction barriers. They then cussed out the workers when the fresh asphalt damaged their bikes’ tires.

The last was when some trees had to be cut down adjacent to the trail. The trunks were laid across the trail while waiting for a truck to come haul them away. By this point Westermeier wasn’t surprised when he saw some Carmel citizens walking toward the trees with chainsaws.

There are also plans to add more vis-ible stop signage at Monon Trail inter-sections to try to prevent people from wandering into roads without stopping. These might include stop signs, signs that warn cross traffic doesn’t stop, painted “stop” language on the pavement, rumble strips or mini speed bumps.

Hopefully trail users will keep the chain-saws at home when they see the changes.

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

Something curious is happening to me. I hope it’s nothing to be too concerned about. I’m not

napping as much as I used to. For most of my life, if I was on the couch watching a TV show, I’d nod

off within five minutes. But a couple of weeks back, I made it through the entire Super Bowl wide awake. Not even Peyton Manning can say that.

This past month I did not take a single nap. Even the dog wondered what happened to our siesta. He kept following me around the house as if to say, “Hey, I’m 80 in dog years. It’s almost 2 p.m. Let’s stretch out and do this.”

Napping has never been a problem. When I was a high school teacher, I actually fell asleep in class while proctoring a statewide exam. The kids were very polite. “I hope we didn’t disturb you yesterday, Mr. Wolfsie,” said one of my stu-dents. “We tried to cheat as quietly as we could.”

Until recently, I could take a quick snooze while having dinner with friends, sitting at red lights, waiting for my wife to put on makeup, let-ting the dog relieve himself, and waiting at fast food drive-up windows and in checkout lines. Anywhere.

Mary Ellen has never quite understood the val-ue of a nap. Personally, I think women are afraid they’re going to miss something. Like a sale, or a beautiful sunset, or the plot of a movie. Men don’t

care about stuff like this. My inability to nap re-cently came up during my recent annual physical, but there was some confusion in the conversa-tion. “How are you sleeping?” asked Dr. Ross

“It’s been rough,” I told him. “Sometimes I’m awake for 8 or 10 hours in a row.”

“TEN HOURS?” he gasped. “We need to do some testing. How long has this been going on?”

“Several months.”“Do you just toss and turn in bed?”“Well, I’m not in bed. That’s the problem. I’m

out driving the car, watching the news or cook-ing. Sometimes I’m in the garage operating heavy machinery.”

“This is very troubling, Dick. So you don’t sleep all night?

“No, I sleep great at night. It’s all day that I can’t sleep.”

Dr. Ross was very helpful once I straightened out the misunderstanding. He said I had to ac-cept that men experience changes in their bodily rhythms as they mature. “I want you to go home this afternoon and really think about that,” he said. I told him I’d have to sleep on it. Which meant, of course, it would have to wait until that night.


Commentary by Danielle Wilson

As I approach my seven-year anniversary with Current, I’ve been revisiting some of my most “famous” columns. Here’s the one that forever

changed my husband’s identity.Pardon me, but my Kentucky is

showing. One night, you see, as I lay in bed with my sound machine at half blast, I heard what sounded like a small critter shuffling behind me. Squirrel in the chimney, I thought, and cranked the noise to “Prop Plane.” Moments later, the scratching shifted, and I determined it was coming from directly above my head, from the attic. The weird clawing continued, so I went to get my husband (who I will hereinafter call “Doo” in reference to Loretta Lynn’s husband).

Doo came upstairs and confirmed that some-thing was definitely up there, but felt there was no need to fret. I eventually fell asleep, but at 4:30 a.m., I awoke to more creepy pawing. Dang nabbit! When I went outside to take a gander, I couldn’t see anything at first. Then a circular shape with two pointy ears came into focus, daring me to do something about his uninvited presence. Naturally, I hightailed it back to safety.

At first light, Doo climbed up to attic with a broom and came face-to-face with our perp, a big mother of a raccoon. Doo ordered me outside; he would attempt to scare the varmint out onto the roof. No good. The ‘coon hunkered down

Showing our Kentucky sidebetween the joists. “I’ll be back,” Doo shouted as he sped off in the truck, covered in insulation and sweat.

Minutes later Doo returned, now armed with a pellet gun. He again entered the attic, ready to go all Deliverance on the critter. Out on the front yard, I heard Pop! Pop!, and then Doo hollerin’ “I got him!” Though he couldn’t find a body, we proudly claimed success.

At 11:30 pm, however, our worst nightmare was confirmed. The Bourne Raccoon was alive! Scratch, scratch, shuffle, scratch. With the kids asleep, Doo grabbed his gun and headed into the fray once more, while I sprinted outside. Pop! Pop, pop, pop. Silence. Then Doo came bound-ing out the door in nothing but a pair of cut-off shorts, yellin’ that he’d nailed the sucker, while I stood barefoot in a bathrobe.

How Butcher Holler was this scene? Me and Doo, half-naked at midnight, trying to kill a ‘coon with a shotgun? All that was missing was a baby on the hip! A big fat apology to neighbors who were lured to their windows by our backwoods shenanigans. We promise to keep our Kentucky better hidden next time. Peace out, y’all.

T H I S W E E KSymphony from Israel to stop in Carmel during tour

Boguslaw Dawidow of Poland will conduct the Haifa Symphony Orchestra during its performance at the Palladium on Feb. 19. (submitted photo)

Haifa Symphony Orchestra • 7:30 p.m. Feb. 19 • The Palladium in Carmel • Tickets start at $15. • For more information call 843-3800 or visit www.thecenterfortheperformingarts.org.

MUSIC

By Jay Harvey • [email protected]

Being in the middle of a 38-concert tour might seem like a heavy load for an orchestra

conductor to undertake, but Bogu-slaw Dawidow is used to the rigors of touring and international travel

for the sake of music.In fact, the Haifa Symphony Orchestra that

the Polish native will conduct in a concert at the Palladium Feb. 19 is just one of five orchestras he’s involved with on four continents.

In addition to being principal guest conductor of this orchestra from northern Israel, Dawidow (pronounced “DAH-vee-doff”) continues to direct the Chopin Chamber Orchestra he founded in Krakow, Poland, in the 1980s. He also holds the post of principal guest conductor with the Bo-gotá (Colómbia) Symphony Orchestra.

All that, plus regular work with orchestras in Palermo, Italy, and South Korea, makes for what could well be an exhausting schedule for a 60-year-old.

“I don’t feel it,” Dawidow said about his age, as he prepared to travel to Elmira, N.Y., last week.

His wife is accompanying him on this tour, as she does on most of his travels.

“If you love this, you don’t feel your age,” he said. “I was born to be on the stage and I feel born again whenever I go onstage.”

The main difficulty is adjusting to time-zone changes, he admitted in a telephone interview.

“But if music is your life, you do everything you have to do to get into the music,” he said.

His formative musical studies focused on conducting in his native Poland, but his career focus blossomed significantly in the early 1980s when he worked with and observed Leonard Bernstein in Vienna over seven to eight months. In the twilight of his career, Bernstein was giv-ing concerts and making recordings with the Vienna Philharmonic.

“He just showed me that these big guys are normal guys,” Dawidow said. “You can talk with them. And you can see how they work. That was something that can be the best in a young conductor’s experience. “

As for Bernstein’s influence on him, Dawidow said, “He has proved to me the value of looking for the simplicity in music. In performing mu-sic, in dealing with all the people involved, you keep in mind that everything starts from the classics.”

Dawidow has emphasized known master-works he loves in the programs he’s leading on the current tour. The Carmel audience will hear the overture to “Euryanthe” by Carl Maria von Weber; Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7

in A major; and with soloist Roman Rabinovich, Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1 in B-flat minor.

Audiences respond well to music they are likely to be familiar with, Dawidow said, and bringing programs consisting largely of well-known compositions allows them to assess the quality of an orchestra they are unlikely to know.

Israeli pianist Rabinovich will be the soloist in 20 of the Haifa orchestra’s U.S. concerts. At other stops he will play concertos by Beethoven and Rachmaninoff. The ensemble has another soloist on hand for the remainder of the con-certs: violist Avshalom Sarid, who will be fea-

tured in a contemporary concerto by a fellow Israeli.

Formed in 1950, the Haifa Symphony Orches-tra offers a varied musical palette to audiences at its home base in northern Israel. It has big-band and opera affiliates, a Jewish music series, extensive children’s concerts and an education-al component, in addition to its classical season. This is its first American tour.

Let your spirits soar – The Indiana Wind Sym-phony presents a new show called “By Air or by

Sea.” Conductor Charles Conrad invites listeners to venture onto the high seas and soar through

the open skies with music of the symphony as their vessel. The inspiring performance begins at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 22 at the Palladium in Carmel. Tickets start at $20. For more information, call 843-3800 or visit www.thecenterfortheperform-ingarts.org.

By Terri Spilmam • [email protected]

Imagine if a dining room table handed down from generation to generation could tell stories

about all the holidays, meals, life-changing events and con-versations that occurred while

gathered around it. Carmel’s newest theater group, Carmel The-

atre Company, will be presenting A.R. Gurney’s play “The Dining Room” which is written around that very idea.

Director Ken Klingenmeier has cast three men and three women who play a total of 58 charac-ters of all ages as “The Dining Room” travels its course through time.

“The play is a study of Americans, primarily White Anglo Saxon Protestants who make up a large cross-section of our country,” Klingenmeier said. “It is about what that cross-section values both materialistically and emotionally.”

The play was first presented in 1982, but its themes of clinging to tradition still resonate today.

The cast shares the duties of the multiple characters in 18 short scenes that take place in the dining room of a typical well-to-do household. Each vignette portrays a different occasion and life circumstance among a family such as a fa-ther/son interaction on grammar and politics, the exposure of a mother’s infidelity, a senile grand-

The Carmel Arts Council and Piano Solutions will present the 2014 Young Performers Show-

case and competition on Feb. 22 and 23.

According to Carmel Arts Council Executive Director Doreen Squire Ficara, the two organizations launched the showcase in 1998 to give young students interested in the arts a chance to perform in front of an audience and help them build enough confidence to demon-strate their talents.

This year, 130 musicians will be competing in their respective age groups with most playing piano.

The students will be judged in five categories that include Mastery of Music, Dynamics, Rhyth-mic Accuracy, General Effect and Stage Presence as well as Technique.

Event Coordinator Cheryl Everett, who special-izes in print music resources and academic de-velopment at Piano Solutions selects collegiate judges from outside of the area so the students get an unbiased opinion of their performance.

In addition to building the confidence of these young musicians, the showcase also builds a sense of community.

“Playing the piano and practicing by them-selves can be a lonely thing,” Everett said. “The showcase allows participants to be with other children, see that others are playing the piano

Showcase highlights student talent

MUSIC

By Amanda Foust • [email protected]

The musical abilities of more than 800 of Car-mel’s students will be on display from 5 to 9 p.m. Feb. 27 when the Carmel Education Foundation

hosts its annual Music Showcase.Historically broadcast as part

of a telethon, this year’s event will feature live performances by nine elementary schools and two middle school choirs, ensembles and a jazz band on a large stage.

The foundation, whose mission is to give classroom grants to teachers, also will be col-lecting cash donations at the performance and pledges at a later date. All collected donations will be shared with the music departments of each participating school.

“Our hope is to collect $1,000 or more the night of the event, and with our Bright House sponsor-ship we hope to give each participating school a minimum of $250 dollars,” said showcase chair-woman Janet Corbin.

This free event is the 28th incarnation of the showcase and is expected to attract an audi-ence of more than a thousand people, and the general public is encouraged to attend. And that’s not including the people who view it on Bright House Channel 99 during the telethon shown March 25, 26 and 27, Corbin said.

She said the purpose behind this showcase is to highlight each school’s musicians in such a large venue.

“That’s really cool for them,” she said. “And it’s more than just a fundraiser, it’s more of a giving back event.”

At the same time, CHS students are given ex-perience in filming, editing and working as stage crew during the event.

“The most important part is that the kids get to play on the high school stage,” said Lisa Sul-livan, event organizer and Mohawk Trails music teacher.

Sullivan has been guiding the event for the past 20 years and said its better now that kids can watch themselves play on TV instead of do-ing it live for a telethon. She also said they ap-preciate the chance to connect with their friends at other schools.

“We’re very blessed with very talented kids,” she said. “It’s a fun night. And we hope the com-munity would come see the kids perform and be encouraged to donate.”

DIPATCHES

Commentary by Dr. Jeffery Schoonover

Are you unhappy with your legs’ appearance? Do you avoid wearing clothing that shows your

legs? Are you experiencing swell-ing and discomfort in your legs? Do you have a network of spider veins

crawling across your legs? Do you have bulging, twisted veins? This summer you can grab your shorts or bathing suit and enjoy the summer sun.

When we have varicose vein disease, valves in our legs do not work properly and allow some of the venous blood to flow backward and pool in our legs, resulting in bulging veins and symptoms such as pain, swelling, tiredness or redness. If an individual has bulging veins or is suffering from discomfort, treatment may be required to relieve symptoms. Spider veins might not always cause discomfort, but can be a cosmetic concern. Diagnostic ultrasound vein mapping should be performed to determine the abnormal areas of blood flow in both legs. With that information, a comprehensive plan of treat-ment can be determined.

Endovenous laser treatment is a minimally invasive treatment for varicose veins. Using ul-trasound guidance, a small laser fiber is inserted through the skin into the varicosed vein. Laser energy is delivered inside the vein, which causes the vein to collapse and seal shut. Once that vein is closed, the blood reroutes to other healthy

Don’t hide your legs this summerveins. This procedure is done in-office under local anesthetic. It usually takes 30 to 45 minutes. Fol-lowing the procedure, patients wear a compres-sion stocking on the treated leg. Most patients return to work within a day or two; many return to work the same day. EVLT may also be accom-panied by sclerotherapy, which is a straightfor-ward strategy to treat any residual, problematic veins. This procedure involves using a very small needle to inject a solution into the veins, which cause them to collapse and disappear.

Beyond the obvious health benefits of treat-ment is the legs’ improved appearance. If you are experiencing symptoms of varicose veins or are bothered by your legs’ cosmetic appearance, a consultation is important. Treatment is easy and will dramatically improve your quality of life.

Build up immunity with these antioxidants – Cit-rus fruits, ginger, mushrooms and, yes, that well-known chicken soup (doctors say it really works!) are just a few of the foods that can help you build your immune system to fight the flu and other viruses. – www.huffingtonpost.com

Opt for super-fatted soaps in winter – The same products that keep your face looking fresh in the spring and summer may cause skin problems during winter. Choose a gentle, super-fatted, fra-grance-free soap for cleansing. Super-fatted means the soap is loaded with oils to keep skin moistur-ized. – www.webmd.com

Stop those wrinkles – One surprising way you might be aging your skin: drinking through a straw. Sure, it looks more ladylike to sip your bever-ages, but repeatedly pursing your lips can cause wrinkling around your mouth. While not notice-able when you’re young, these lines become more pronounced as you age and your skin weakens. – www.living.msn.com

Effectively treat frostbite – Make sure you cover up even that little bit of bare skin in temperatures below freezing; frostbite can occur within just five minutes due to wind chill. When frostbite occurs, soak skin for 30 minutes in warm, not hot, water until the skin is soft and flexible. Although stand-ing near a fireplace may be temping, don’t — the exposed skin can easily become burned. – www.webmd.com

CURTIS ROBERT CLIFFORD“Life Motto: Be the reason someone else smiles.”

Saturday evening, Curtis was ful�lling a dream by taking a ride in a helicopter with dear friends. His typical evening: friends, food and fun. Unfortunately, the evening came to a close with an experience none of his family and friends have yet to be able to comprehend. Curtis was born September 21st, 1960 in Little Rock, Arkansas, the second son, but, as he was fond of saying, only chronologically. Curtis’ life would involve moves to Atlanta, Richmond, Carmel, Lake Oswego, Carmel, Toronto and �nally 28 years ago to Tallahassee. And the fun began. An Avid FSU fan and tailgater without par. Curtis made Tallahassee his town to love and work to make better. Each city left memories and fun…those same friends are still in place.On March 27th, 1993, Curtis and his wife Susan (Bladge) welcomed his �rst son, Joshua Alexander with great joy which has been growing ever since. In keeping with the Cli�ord tradition, another son, Michael Curtis, would make his appearance November 9th, 1996, again, joy was the only way to describe Curtis’ mood. Bursting with joy might best describe the next event in May of 2001 when Kim Parker became Curtis’ wife and her Kaytlin became his daughter. In a search for words to describe Curtis’ work experience the only ones that come to mind are Sales Extraordinaire. If some one made it, Curtis could sell it and love doing it because he saw the whole experience as helping others.And so, the helicopter came down and ended the joy but nothing can take away the memories, the family, the friends, the business associates or the fun.A celebration of Curtis’ life and times will be held Friday, February 14th at 3 PM at the Bradfordville First Baptist Church, 6494 �omasville Road in Tallahassee followed by a time of joy and telling Curtis’ stories at SummerBrook Golf and Country Club, 7505 Preservation Road, Tallahassee, Florida 32312.Curtis is survived by his wife, Kim Parker Cli�ord; his sons Joshua Alexander, Michael Curtis and his daughter Kaytlin Ashley Smallwood-Cli�ord, all of Tallahassee; the mother of his boys, Susan Bladge Cli�ord of Tallahassee; his parents Ron and Judi Cli�ord of Hilton Head Island, South Carolina; two brothers: Rogers (Connie) of Hilton Head Island and Doug (Lisa) of Havana, Florida; a sister Leslie Robinson (Ken) also of Hilton Head; nephews: Ben and Alex Cli�ord of the US Army Rangers; Sam and Jesse Cli�ord of Carmel, Indiana; Troy Cli�ord and Ty Robinson of Hilton Head; two nieces: Jacey Robinson and Hanna Cli�ord of Hilton Head; an Uncle Drew (Becky) Rogers of Little Rock, Arkansas; a Grandmother Betty Rogers Canaday of Hilton Head; and a huge host of friends…you know who you are….Curtis made sure of that. He is pre-deceased by his older brother, David Cli�ord of Carmel, Indiana.�e family requests, in lieu of �owers, donations be sent in Curtis’ name to the ALS Association of Indiana, 6525 East 82nd Street, Suite 115, Indianapolis, Indiana, in honor of Curtis’ brother David. Bevis Funeral Home, 850-385-2193, www.bevisfh.com, is assisting the family with their arrangements.

Commentary by Mark Wade

Under current IRS rules, every person holding money in one or more retirement accounts must

begin withdrawing some of that money each year starting in the year he turns age 70½.

This may seem like a long time from now based upon your current age, but the planning for this required distribution from these ac-counts should begin years before that date.

If you have accumulated a large sum of money in your retirement accounts, you might even want to begin this process as early as age 50. That’s because it’s possible that you have too much money in your qualified accounts, which could cause a tax issue during retirement.

Not taking the required minimum payout could cause a penalty of half the amount you should have removed, but did not remove, from your accounts.

Part of this puzzle is that you may have tax liability during retirement if your income from dividends, other income or IRA withdrawals, ex-ceeds $24,000 per year.

To reduce this tax liability in retirement, it may be wise to begin withdrawing funds from your qualified accounts long before you reach the required distribution.

A person who has more than $300,000 in qualified money at age 50 should see a financial

advisor to calculate what the expected required distribution would be at age 70½. Remember that after 20 years of investing, your $300,000 could easily become $600,000 or even well over $1 mil-lion if you made wise investment decisions.

If, for example, you have $600,000 sitting in your accounts at age 70, you would be required to withdraw $21,897 in the first year of distribu-tion. This might not be a big deal unless your growth on that account exceeds the minimum distribution.

Those of you who were brave enough to be in the stock market the past 24 months probably made a return that could be in the range of 5 to 35 percent. If your money was sitting in a sav-ings account at the bank, your return was prob-ably less than 1 percent.

At age 76, if you still have $600,000 in quali-fied money, your minimum distribution would be $27,272. This would put you into a taxable situation under current rules. Your growth each year would require you to continue to withdraw increasing amounts of money, increasing your tax liability.

For this reason, some individuals will need to begin withdrawing funds from their accounts at a much earlier age.

Commentary by Vicky Earley

A few days ago I faced a small tiling project that demanded a simple, unadorned tile. It was

a small, boxy hearth that had a fabulous piece of art perched above the mantle.

The project had to be completed over the weekend, so my tile sources were limited. Also, I was out of town, so I was unfamiliar with the “good places” in the area!

I ended up at a chain home store in search of a benign tile that would recede and allow the fireplace mantle and art to star! A well-meaning employee showed me options that would meet my needs with a minimum of cuts since I don’t do wet saws!

When I continued to migrate to the simple tiles, he redirected me to a multicolor glass op-tion. He insisted that I should make my project “the focal point” of the room.

I bit my tongue at the thought of making a box at the base of my fireplace the focal point at the expense of other fabulous options. I loaded my cart with my blah tile and headed for the checkout.

This innocent conversation shed light on the fact that although most understand the basic concept of a focal point, they don’t understand how to use this critical design tool to create a fabulous room.

Technically, a focal point is defined as the

The star of the room

point at which all elements or aspects converge; the center of activity or attention. This leads to the question, just what should be the center of attention in a space?

The best focal points are often born of an incredible view from a window, a large piece of high-contrast art, or a fabulous fireplace in the center of the room.

When you enter a space, stop for a moment and look around. What is the first thing your eyes rest upon? Typically, this is the focal point. If there is no strong focal point in the room, it is time to create one!

Do this by deciding what stands out as the most interesting feature of the room … even if it does not qualify as a focal point. If there is no fireplace to build upon, the focal point could be a collection arranged on the center of a table, a large painting or rich window treatments that embellish a ho-hum window.

Limiting color contrast to the area selected as the focal point will help to ensure success.

Although a television is often easily visible from the seating arrangement, it is not an aes-thetic focal point. It is a functional appliance and should be treated as such.

HEAVY METALIt’s a great look, when it’s done right. Other times, a metallic eye shadow can look flaky, or even too outdated. Instead of passing on this trend all together, though, take our advice for applying the perfect metal shade for you.Step One - Sweep the shadow of your choice across your lids, being sure to stay below the brow bones.Step Two - Lightly line your eyes with a black eye pencil. Use more pressure at the outer corners to really make eyes pop.Step Three - Brighten up the inner corners by dabbing a lighter shadow.For more makeup tips and trends, visit one of Salon 01’s estheticians! Call 580-0101 to book your consultation today.

COLOR CODING: WHICH SHADE IS RIGHT FOR YOU?Are you considering switching up your shade for spring? Here are a few tips to keep hair color transition natural, beautiful, and worry-free. Enlist a Trained ProfessionalAlways get your color done by a professional. It can be hard to apply product evenly throughout hair and even harder to judge processing time when your experience in color is limited. Take the fuss and mess out of at-home dyeing by scheduling your appointment with one of our stylists at Salon 01. Our unique color bar and personal consultations will make you feel right at home- without the unwanted cleanup! If you’re thinking blonde…If you were blonde as a child or if you had a lighter hue that was blonde by summer’s end you may have the skin tone to pull off those light locks. Think about regular maintenance, though. Blonde hair must be taken care of and touched up more frequently, depending on the shade of your natural hair color. If you’re thinking red…Almost anyone can pull off red hair. The trick is in the specific hue of red. To find a red that fits perfectly with your skin tone, have a personalized consultation with one of our Salon 01 stylists! They will formulate a red individually for you. If you’re thinking brunette…Typically, if you are not naturally blonde, brown hair upkeep is fairly easy. This is a good choice for people that would rather not spend too much time fussing over colored hair. A tip from Marie Claire {To maximize the impact of your chocolaty color, go deeper and monotone if your hair is nearly all one length. If it's shorter or very layered, make the ends slightly lighter, and weave in high- and lowlights to emphasize the texture of the cut. }

EXTENSIONS: ARE THEY RIGHT FOR YOU?Thinking long hair could be right for you?Salon 01 has a Dream Team made up of specially trained stylists in HairDreams hair extensions.

Commentary by Don Knebel

Egypt’s larger-than-life pyramids continue to generate speculation about their origins, rang-

ing from the extraterrestrial to the supernatural. Even the Egyptians once posited a divine explanation.

The stepped pyramid at Saqqara shows that the real story is closer to Earth.

Believing that souls live on after death, Egyptians initially buried their important dead and their pos-sessions in underground tombs covered by “masta-bas.” Mastabas, made first of mud bricks and then of stones, were solid, flat-topped structures up to 30 feet high with gradually sloping sides. A passage to a special chamber inside allowed priests and family members to bring offerings to the person buried below for use in the afterlife.

In about 2650 B.C., Imhotep, the palace archi-tect of Pharaoh Djoser, came up with a new idea for his boss’s tomb at Saqqara, the burial ground serving the capital at Memphis. He covered the underground tomb with six stacked mastabas of diminishing size, creating a stepped pyramid made entirely of stone. For designing what was then the largest stone structure ever built, Imho-tep was later worshipped as a god.

Seeing the stepped pyramid, Pharaoh Snefru

‘The Pyramids’ Stepping-stones’

TrAvEL

Stepped Pyramid of Djoser (photo by Don Knebel)

ordered that his pyramid eliminate the steps and support his tomb above the ground so it would be closer to the sun god. About two-thirds of the way to the apex, engineers had to reduce the angle of inclination from 55 to 43 degrees to eliminate stability problems created by the internal tomb chamber. The result was the so-called “bent pyramid.” On the next try, Snefru’s engineers started with a 43-degree angle and succeeded in creating the first “true pyramid,” with smooth sides and a constant angle. This so-called “red pyramid” may contain still-secret passages leading to the undiscovered mummy of Snefru. Using Snefru’s model, his son Khufu took the pyramid-building art to its pinnacle in the Great Pyramid of Giza, still the most massive structure ever built.

No little green men, no magical powers, no unsolvable mysteries. Egypt’s pyramid builders drew on past successes, learned from earlier mistakes and achieved lasting greatness. That is the real secret of the pyramids.

Commentary by Larry Greene

Existing kitchen: This home located on a secluded lot overlooking Morse Reservoir was

no longer suited to the way the home-owner lived. “I began making the walk-out

basement more of my living space. The kitchen there was closed and non-functional. I wanted to create a comfortable and cozy space, a place where you want to come in and sit down.”

Hickory cabinets: The design reflected the natural surroundings. “The designer suggested natural hickory cabinets,” stated the owner. “I didn’t want a contemporary or modern look.” The cabinets gave the natural farmhouse feel the owner was looking for. The existing drywall bulkheads were removed, allowing for a more open feel. New exhaust fan ductwork was con-cealed in the ceiling for the new microwave.

Island as contrast: To create a contrast for the natural cabinetry, the island is stained in an espresso finish. Black Pearl granite in a leather finish also provides contrast from the White Persia granite on the perimeter cabine-try. Seating for four makes the island the true center of the kitchen.

Farmhouse look: The farmhouse look was continued in the details as well. “I have always wanted a farmhouse sink,” stated the home-

Final details: New appliances in black and matte stainless steel were installed, as well as a wine refrigerator and under-cabinet lighting. Updated storage solutions were also part of the final de-sign, including a mixer lift, a built-in spice rack and double-layered utensil drawers. Finally, new 6-inch-wide hand-scraped maple engi-neered hardwood flooring was installed over the concrete slab.
