It is our position we, in a competitive and global world, should take advantage of the math and science tutoring service provided by Rose Hulman Institute of Technology as we confront homework challenges. By calling the hotline or submitting questions online, you will get a Rose Hulman student who has been recommended by a professor based on his or her technical and com-munication skills. There is no extra charge for the service.

The program, which is in its 20th year, answered more than 45,000 calls and less than 3,000 online requests last year. The service is for students grades six through 12. Tutors are given state-recommended textbooks to help the student work through the program. Before calling, students should be prepared with the homework assignment, textbooks, pen, paper and a calculator if necessary. The student may need to give his or her name and school’s name. Although the tutor will not give the answer, we find this to be a valuable service to our community.

To benefit from this tutoring service, you may call the hotline at 877-275-7673 or send an e-mail request to www.AskRose.org. The service is open from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday.

Homework hotline Emotional hazardIt is our position in the aftermath of the Indi-

ana State Fair tragedy, the state must avoid react-ing emotionally, but it should respond with wisdom within the bounds of the law. We know it can be difficult to eschew emotion, and we recognize one person’s wisdom is often another’s folly. Nevertheless, it seems to us so far the state has treated the victims of this tragedy as fairly and respect-fully as it can.

We particularly applaud Attorney General Greg Zoeller’s decision not to raise civil union issues in defense of a lawsuit filed by the same-sex partner of a woman who died at the Fair. It’s likely Zoeller’s decision has more to do with legal strategy than his views about civil unions, and we understand arguing over civil unions may be inevitable in this lawsuit. In spite of all that, we appreciate the state is defending this lawsuit in a way that respects the role of the legislature on the issue of civil unions, and at the same time, spares a woman who suffered great loss at the fair the indignity of challenges to her relationship with her partner, in a way that a married person would not experience. We call that wisdom.

The aftermath of any vehicular fatality always is disturbing, but we’re even more shocked about the after effects of the death of Leanea Nyeayea. The former Hamilton County deputy sheriff died last week in a motorcycle crash on Ind. 37 in Indianapolis. His passing is shocking enough. That he has left behind a pregnant wife and five children is terribly gripping. Those who encountered the 37-year-old native Liberian have said that to know him was to love him. So, now, we are asking you to love his survivors. Any Chase Bank will be glad to accept monetary donations to a trust fund for his widow and children. Please consider participating.

His recent comment – “There are plenty of reasons not to elect me” – was right on point. Shame on Christie.

Since even the early tuning concerts of central Indiana’s own version of famed 15th Century Venetian architect Andrea Palladio’s Palladium, many have been struck by its formidable coun-tenance and looming presence. But it was dur-ing a recent symphonic performance, I took a new look at the reflective nature of the suspended acoustic glass ceiling. As each and every stroke of the bow was drawn across an instrument below it was reflected in broken pieces across the panels soaring above us many stories.

It reminds us music is the soul of the hall. Like the muse called to the artist, the reflections in the panes take on an ethereal, almost surreal, quality. Much has been written about cost and design, leadership and scandal, and venue and role. But now, is it really about the edifice or is it art?

As we glance upwards towards the heavens, we find caught in our vision the spirits brought to serenade us even as modern-day performers instill life into the notes of Mozart, Sinatra and others.

Although the reflections float above translucent and fragmented, they sound a chorus into the hall as if the music had originated in the heavens rather than being reflected from below.

It is likely impossible to know with any degree of clarity what specifically motivated city leaders to undertake this project. Some might argue it was colossal ego. Others, more favorably disposition, would sug-gest it was an economic development move. Yet others might simply state

no one else could undertake such an ambitious project. Does it really matter?

If we ever hope to draw value from this venue, don’t we have to invite the muse to come and inhabit our hall? And isn’t the only way to ensure its presence is by seeking the ghost in the ceiling . . . the music . . . and the song?

I’ve about had it up to here (I am currently holding my right hand a foot above my head) with parents belittling, blaming and bullying teachers. Although Teacher Appreciation Week isn’t until May, I think it’s time to show a little love to those who are educating our children.

Let me tell you a little something about the teachers I know. They all get up between 5 and 6 in the morning so that they can get their kids to daycare to be at work by 7. Most of them are on their feet teaching from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. They have 20 minutes for lunch, realistically 20 min-utes to return phone calls and e-mails and follow up on the child who vomited in the trashcan dur-ing second period. In the evenings and on week-ends, they grade papers, plan lessons and worry about poor-performing students and kids in trou-bled homes. They often awaken in the middle of the night and brainstorm creative ways to engage and challenge their students. They are some of the hardest working professionals around.

But, where’s the respect? All I hear from mommy groups is, “Teachers aren’t performing and are the ones to blame for failing schools.”

That is such BS! Most teachers are doing a hell of a job, despite budget cuts and overcrowding. Just because we are parents, doesn’t mean we have the right to criticize teachers. Few of us are licensed educators, and we simply cannot under-

stand everything required to ensure our children are receiving the best possible education. It’s great to be engaged in your child’s school, but at some point you have to let the teachers do their jobs. They know letting a child fail is the best way to help her succeed, and when parents interfere or try to strong-arm a teacher into changing a policy or grade or decision, they actually are doing their child a disservice. At some point, kids need to fight their own battles.

But it seems some parents would rather blame teachers for their son’s low GPA or, more recently, focus all their time and energy on irrelevant issues like summer vacation start and end dates. Who cares? We should be working to get teachers more money. We should be badgering lawmakers to get rid of the unions. If we want to attract the top graduates to education, we have to start treating and paying them like professionals.

Are all teachers wonderful? No. Is every school a Blue Ribbon winner? No. But have faith in teachers. Most got in to the profes-sion for the kids (Lord knows it wasn’t for the money) and they are truly trying to do right by them. Peace out.

A complaint was filed Oct. 7 with the Ham-ilton County Elections Board claiming a flyer distributed by two local candidates violated elec-tion law.

The complaint, filed by Andrew Greider, claims that Democrats Joe Weingarten and Greg Purvis, running for clerk-treasurer and Fishers Town Council District 4, respectively, failed to include a required disclaimer on a flyer distributed by the pair announcing a “town hall meeting.” Greider is the executive director of the Hamilton County Republican Party.

“The flyer was brought to me at the office by someone who had it put inside their newspaper box,” Greider said. “The resident was concerned that it didn’t have a disclaimer, it didn’t explain whether it was the Democratic Party, or which candidate paid for it.”

Indiana Code 3-9-3-2.5 (d) states that a com-munication advocating the election or defeat of a candidate must contain a “disclaimer that appears and is presented in a clear and con-spicuous manner to give the reader or observer adequate notice of the identity of persons who paid for and, when required, who authorized the communication.”

According to Weingarten, however, a dis-

claimer was present on images of election signs for both candidates included on the flyers.

“I think it’s a non-issue,” Weingarten said. “It’s being pretty picky. And it comes from a guy who sent out letters all over the state on behalf of Charlie White without a disclaimer on the letters.”

As of press time, Weingarten said neither he nor Purvis had heard from the elections office regarding the complaint, and Greider said no time frame was given for a response.

After 25 years in the business, Ed Sahm still is doing what he

does best – serving it up

sahm’s restaurant & bar11505 Allisonville Rd., Fishers

317-842-1577www.sahms.com

By Jordan Fischer [email protected]

It all starts with food, says Ed Sahm.The veteran restaurateur means it. Twenty-five

years after opening his first restaurant – Sahm’s Restaurant and Flying Horse Pub – he still can be found preparing soup, baking bread and cooking on line with the rest of his staff, many of whom have been with Sahm nearly since the beginning. With his name attached in one form or another to more than 15 restaurants, Sahm’s domain is a small empire – and he runs it from the kitchen.

“I feel like we’re here, honestly, just to feed people,” Sahm said. “We’re not the kind of res-taurant where people go if they’re celebrating something. We’re a ‘It’s Tuesday night and I’m hungry’ kind of place.”

Just a regular guy“My former boss at (Harry’s Chocolate Shop)

was just a regular guy who made a go of it, and a pretty good one,” Sahm said. “So I thought, if he could make it, I could.”

“Regular guy” isn’t a bad description of Sahm himself. At 50 years old, the Indianapolis native is understated, amicable. If you ask about his success, his answer is simple: the food is good, both in quality and value. Ask about all the time still spent in the kitchen, and he credits his father, Bill, for instilling in him a strong work ethic. Noting the 20 years the elder Sahm spent as the director of the Catholic Youth Organization in Indianapolis. And all the restaurants? Thanks to his hardworking employees, Sahm said.

“Everyone I’ve gone into business with is a former employee,” Sahm said. “The whole premise was to find opportunities for people in my company to grow.”

Sahm’s commitment to his employees is vis-ible, particularly in how long some of them have stayed with him. The bar staff alone claim more than 100 years worth of time working at Sahm’s between them.

“We run a well-run, consistent business,” Sahm said. “(Employees) are proud of the prod-uct they serve. It makes it a good place to work.”

And, he said, employees know that “their families come first.”

“When you need time off, you get it,” Sahm said. “To me, you need a good balance between personal and work life.”

Going the distance“The hardest part in this business is to have

that longevity,” Sahm said. “I take pride in 25 years. There aren’t a lot of places that make it

that long. And I love doing this. I like cooking and feeding people, and making them happy.”

The current Sahm’s Restaurant location, just south of the intersection of 116th Street and Allisonville Road, is its third incarnation since Sahm started the business in 1986 in an empty gas station. Sahm then went on to help start other businesses, among them Penn Street Food Emporium in 1991, Smee’s Place in 1993, The Roost in 1995, and Boulder Creek Dining Company in 1997 with Mike Cunningham (who co-owned Big Chill Yogurt Shop with Sahm). Altogether, his restaurants generate $10 million in annual sales, and Sahm’s Catering has repeatedly earned a top ten spot among India-

napolis area caterers since 1992.And then of course there’s the coffee cake,

Sahm’s Famous Sour Cream Coffee Cake, which first reached a dining table in 1990 and has been served with every salad since, as well as achieving national distribution.

Like his father, the namesake for Indianapolis’ Sahm Park, Sahm’s list of community involve-ments gets pretty lengthy. Aside from coaching more than 50 youth teams, Sahm has served as president of Allisonville Youth Baseball and Soft-ball, is a current board member of the Megan S. Ott Foundation, and was past president of the board of directors of the Catholic Youth Orga-nization. He was also given a key to the Town of

Fishers in 1993, and has served as chairman of Sahm’s Charity Golf Outing for 20 years.

Even with all his success, though, Sahm says there’s no resting on laurels under his watch.

“You’re only as good as the last meal you’ve served in people’s eyes,” Sahm said. “You’ve only got one or two shots to do this right. And we understand that.”

Current in FishersWittmann 20/20 Family Eye Center an-

nounced today it will be offering 10 free eye exams for breast cancer survivors in recognition of October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

“With all of the amazing work being done these days supporting breast cancer, it is easy to become desensitized to the enormity of the disease and it’s ruthless impact on men and women,” said Dr. Tammy Wittman. “That is unless you have it, have had it, or love someone who has dealt with breast cancer.”

Wittmann said she, her husband John, and her staff have all been affected by breast cancer, either personally or through family and close friends. Bridget Rizzo, the office manager at Wittmann 20/20, contracted breast cancer in her early 30s. After numerous surgeries and treatment, she is a survivor. Nicole Proctor, a close friend and colleague of John Wittmann, also in her 30s, kicked breast cancer just one year ago and is doing very well. Several of Wit-

tmann’s regular patients have shared how breast cancer has affected them as they hope to remain cancer free.

“A lot of people don’t realize that breast can-cer can spread to the eye,” Wittman said.

Wanting to do something special to help, Wittmann is offering a free eye exam to the first 10 breast cancer survivors who contact her office and ask for this gift.

“I wish I could give every cancer survivor a free exam” said Wittmann, “But we will happily offer it to the first 10 people who call in and ask about this offer. We want to do what we can with the gifts we have and at the same time make sure our friends affected by cancer have clear vision with no signs of any cancer present in the eye.”

These first 10 patients will also be offered 30 percent off any eyewear if needed.

For more information, contact Wittmann 20/20 Family Eye Center at 843-2020 or www.wittmann2020.com.

Starting tomorrow, rolling billboards in the form of motor-coaches will travel between Carmel and Fishers to downtown every weekday morning.

Using the slogan, “Rule Your Rush Hour,” the brightly colored Indy Express Bus delivers northside commuters to their work-places and back home at the end of the day.

The cost to ride is $10 round trip every day. According to AAA (American Automobile Association), the cost of commut-ing for an average round trip of 30 miles is $14.35 if you include vehicle depreciation, gas, maintenance and tire wear. Plus, many employees also pay for their own parking.

CIRTA partnered with Miller Trailways to continue the service after a one-time, non-renewable federal grant ended on Dec. 31, 2010.

“As a result of the loss of federal funding, a popular service was going to end unless someone stepped up,” said John Miller, presi-dent of Miller Trailways. “We want to be a part of improving the options for transit in Central Indiana, so we agreed to take a risk.”

Bird’s nest cause of second house

fire in Fishers The Fishers Fire Dept. responded to an

attic and roof fire in the 10900 block of Loyola Oct. 9, just before 9 p.m.

Firefighters were able to get the fire under control in about 10 minutes, but the home sustained moderate fire damage to the roof along with smoke and water damage to the interior.

The home is owned by Gary Chang. He and his family escaped the burning house safely.

The cause of the fire is prompting a warning from the Fishers Fire Dept., es-pecially since it is the second fire with the same cause on Loyola Court since August. Both fires started after homeowners used exterior lights that ignited bird’s nests built on top of them.

“If a bird builds a nest in your outside lights, you have two choices: remove the nest or don’t use the lights”, warned Ron Lipps, public information officer for the Fishers Fire Dept. “A light bulb is quite hot enough to ignite the twigs and grass that a nest is made of”.

No dollar loss estimate was available.

Indy Express Bus launches campaign to attract riders COMMEntaRY

By Susan BryantIn case you haven’t heard, Hallmark

has rolled out a new popular line of greeting cards to send to people who have lost their job or otherwise been negatively impacted by our current economy. These “sorry for your loss” cards made me think of all the possible cards that could be sent to parents for the various disappointments and pitfalls we experience raising children. Here are a few I’ve come up with. (Imagine each sentiment on a card with a pastel back-ground or soothing nature scene).

Sorry potty training is going so bad-ly. Musical potties, foam “peeing targets,” the classic candy bribe . . . when all these attempts to “encourage” a child to relin-quish the Pull-Up fail, a sympathy card to the exhausted parent is definitely in order.

Sorry to hear your child has a resis-tant strain of lice. Few phrases are more revolting in the parental vernacular than “your child has lice.” This card could come with “we may have infected you” post cards to send as well. Also, a coupon for Nix.

Sorry for the loss of your pre-baby body. Because it’s not coming back.

Something stretched and contorted that much during pregnancy can only be expected to recover so much. Grieve and move on.

Sorry the bully everyone fears is actually your child. Sure everyone feels bad for the kid who is bullied, but what about the parent of the bully? Talk about dying a social death.

Sorry your kid repeated the dispar-aging remark you made about your mother-in-law. To her.

This is a buy one, get one free card. An apology card is included to send to the offended party.

Sorry to hear your kid isn’t any bet-ter at math than you were as a child. Nature? Nurture? Who knows why the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree with our less desirable traits. Variations on this theme could include “sports,” “social skills,” etc.

Sorry to hear your teenager can’t wait to get tattoos and multiple body piercings when he/she is 18 and an “adult.” One card can’t really express enough sympathy here. Better to include a hand-written note as well.

COMMEntaRY By Doug Jeschke

I spent an afternoon shepherding three 6-year-old boys during a play date at our house. Do you want a recipe for conflict? There it is.

The group divided right away, or at least im-mediately after it became clear the only house rule was no ganging up to chase and tease the three-year-old brother. The boys fought about nearly everything. What to play, how to play it, who gets which toy. There was simply no agree-ment to be found.

Our son, Ben, was one of three kindergart-ners in our old neighborhood. As Ben was the newcomer to the neighborhood, he quickly was tossed back and forth from being on the “in” side, and being the one left out. We have worked hard to teach him to be gracious and creative when left in the odd-man-out position. We work with him on coming up with play suggestions to put all three on the same side, or just to accept it’s ok to walk away if you don’t like the way the other kids are treating you. We really want him to remember how it feels to be the one left out when it is his turn to be on the “in” side.

One of the things that stood out to me was the obvious decision making process that goes on in the heads of six-year old boys. The face of a six-year-old reveals his entrenchment on a position reflects a desire to gain the upper hand or prove

allegiances, instead of a true preference for one type of play over another. The same boy, who I’ve seen play video games with Ben for hours, could not be more turned off by that same activity as soon as the third boy suggested it.

Another thing that struck me is how effective a skilled leader can be in that situation to direct everyone to a consensus. Whenever I pulled my son aside to give him some tips about respecting the others’ feelings, they pretty quickly moved on to a common activity. This reinforces my desire to focus parenting efforts so our boys each learn first and foremost to be a good friend and in tune with their playmates’ feelings.

As a divorce mediator, I see the exact same facial expressions in my clients as they put their backs up and resist each and every sug-gestion from the opposing party. I also see how well efforts to give genuine consideration and understanding go to soften up the anticipated resistance and come closer to finding common ground.

I really hope this is a trait my boys learn soon. It will make for much more enjoyable play dates.

» Yelp affects restaurants – Reviews at the popular crowd-sourcing site Yelp.com are having a significant effect on the restaurant business, according to a study of more than 3,500 Seattle restaurants from 2003 through October 2009. The study found that a one-star increase in Yelp’s five-star rating scale was associated with a quarter-to-quarter revenue rise of up to 9 percent. The research-er also examined restaurants whose average ratings were within 0.1 star of each other, but which, for the purposes of a summary rat-ing, got rounded up and down by a half-star. That comparison confirmed the power of the stars.

» Feed the flare – Students in photo school are taught that lens flare is the result of bad compositional technique. However, espe-cially in wedding and engagement portrai-ture, lens flare is used intentionally to add interest to what might otherwise be a boring background or to obscure a distracting one. Tips to create a flare: 1. Position the sun so it’s in the frame. 2. Use a cheap lens. 3. Use a smaller aperture to get a more star-like shape to the flare.

COMMEntaRYBy Cheri Dick

The year 1915 was memorable in lots of in-teresting and intriguing ways.

Historians remember it as the year World War I spread throughout all of Europe. Baseball fans know Babe Ruth hit his first home run in 1915, with 713 to follow. And film buffs may recall it as the year the controversial movie, “The Birth of a Nation” was released.

Locally, it was a memorable year, too. Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre staged its first produc-tion in 1915.

As remarkable as it may seem, this is not a misprint. Although 2011-12 is our first season at the Tarkington, Civic Theatre has been serv-ing the greater Indianapolis area for 97 years and is one of the oldest community theatres in continuous operation in the United States.

If it’s true practice makes perfect (and we be-lieve it is), we have had 97 years to get it right, and if “The Drowsy Chaperone” is an accurate barometer of the progress we’re making, I think we’re succeeding.

Reviews by theatre critics and audiences alike for “The Drowsy Chaperone” were very gratify-ing. They recognized the quality of Civic’s in-augural show at The Center for the Performing Arts as “rivaling national tours and professional regional theaters,” one of the highest compli-

ments that could be paid to any theatre organi-zation (Lou Harry, IBJ).

At Civic, we expect artistic excellence and work to achieve it, but for others to recognize the uniquely high level of talent and expertise our professional staff brings to the stage is praise reflecting the decades of hard work and com-mitment invested in our theatre organization and in our community.

Frankly, it’s what makes us different and better!

But don’t take my word for it. Sample a Civic Theatre production for yourself. Anyone who loves a good story with lots of intrigue will enjoy our next production on the Tarkington stage, “Amadeus”(Oct. 28 –Nov 12). If it’s fam-ily entertainment you get excited about, don’t miss Roald Dahl’s “Willy Wonka,” this year’s holiday production on the Civic stage (Dec. 16-Jan. 7).

For tickets, go to www.civictheatre.org or call 843-3800. You will see how engaging, enter-taining and energetic a 97-year mainstay in the Indianapolis-area arts community can be!

Dr. Jesse Spear, Internal Medicine

When looking for an internist — a doctor who focuses on adult medicine, including prevention — there are lots of things to think about. A physician’s background, skill and experience are all factors to take into consideration — as is the convenience of the doctor’s office. But it’s truly important to find a doctor you can trust. That’s why we’re happy to welcome Dr. Jesse Spear, who specializes in internal and preventive medicine.

If you’re looking for a new doctor, we think you’ll like him. Dr. Spear graduated from the Indiana University School of Medicine; completed his residency at St.Vincent Indianapolis Hospital; and is certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine. And he’s taking new patients right now.

To schedule an appointment with Dr. Spear at Medical Center Northeast, call 317-415-9009.

For a lot of women, working up the nerve to go in for a mammogram is tough. But it’s an effort that’s certainly worth the anxiety, especially if you’re 40 or older or if you have a family history of breast cancer.

After a mammogram, many women receive notice that the radiologist wants to get another look at an area of breast tissue. While that news can sound ominous, it isn’t an indication that something’s wrong and it certainly doesn’t mean that you have cancer.

Dense breast tissue often is at the root of the request. When breast tissue is dense (and the younger you are, the denser your tissue), radiologists have a harder time getting a good view inside it.

The most common reasons that you might get called back after a mammogram include:

•Calcifications: These are little areas of calcium in the ducts of the breast — and 90 percent of them are benign. In some cases though, a radiologist will want to obtain a biopsy of the area.

•Lumps:Manylumpsendupbeingfibroadenomas— benign, solid tumors that are common in young women. The radiologist might recommend a six-monthfollow-uporabiopsytoconfirmthatthe

lumpisafibroadenoma.Ifthelumplooksmoreconcerning, you’re likely to have a biopsy.

•Cysts: Very common in breast tissue, cysts also are often painful. They can be drained under ultrasound-guided assistance to relieve the pain. Sometimes, cysts go away without any intervention.

•Asymmetry: Basically, this is any spot in your breast that looks unusual. It could be a glandular area that when compressed just looked a little different. Taking moreviewsathighermagnificationcangivetheradiologist a better idea what’s happening.

If you need a biopsy, you usually can have it performed atthebreastcenterorinaphysician’soffice.It’sanoutpatient procedure that uses only local anesthesia. And you won’t have to wait long for answers as most biopsy results are returned within three days.

Dr. Jesse Spear, Internal Medicine

When looking for an internist — a doctor who focuses on adult medicine, including prevention — there are lots of things to think about. A physician’s background, skill and experience are all factors to take into consideration — as is the convenience of the doctor’s office. But it’s truly important to find a doctor you can trust. That’s why we’re happy to welcome Dr. Jesse Spear, who specializes in internal and preventive medicine.

If you’re looking for a new doctor, we think you’ll like him. Dr. Spear graduated from the Indiana University School of Medicine; completed his residency at St.Vincent Indianapolis Hospital; and is certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine. And he’s taking new patients right now.

To schedule an appointment with Dr. Spear at Medical Center Northeast, call 317-415-9009.

For a lot of women, working up the nerve to go in for a mammogram is tough. But it’s an effort that’s certainly worth the anxiety, especially if you’re 40 or older or if you have a family history of breast cancer.

After a mammogram, many women receive notice that the radiologist wants to get another look at an area of breast tissue. While that news can sound ominous, it isn’t an indication that something’s wrong and it certainly doesn’t mean that you have cancer.

Dense breast tissue often is at the root of the request. When breast tissue is dense (and the younger you are, the denser your tissue), radiologists have a harder time getting a good view inside it.

The most common reasons that you might get called back after a mammogram include:

•Calcifications: These are little areas of calcium in the ducts of the breast — and 90 percent of them are benign. In some cases though, a radiologist will want to obtain a biopsy of the area.

•Lumps:Manylumpsendupbeingfibroadenomas— benign, solid tumors that are common in young women. The radiologist might recommend a six-monthfollow-uporabiopsytoconfirmthatthe

lumpisafibroadenoma.Ifthelumplooksmoreconcerning, you’re likely to have a biopsy.

•Cysts: Very common in breast tissue, cysts also are often painful. They can be drained under ultrasound-guided assistance to relieve the pain. Sometimes, cysts go away without any intervention.

•Asymmetry: Basically, this is any spot in your breast that looks unusual. It could be a glandular area that when compressed just looked a little different. Taking moreviewsathighermagnificationcangivetheradiologist a better idea what’s happening.

If you need a biopsy, you usually can have it performed atthebreastcenterorinaphysician’soffice.It’sanoutpatient procedure that uses only local anesthesia. And you won’t have to wait long for answers as most biopsy results are returned within three days.

» Timber is safe? – Harvard University has invested in timberland for many years, and Boston financial-services giant John Hancock owns 5.3 million acres around the world. There’s a reason for all this interest. The cor-relation between timber and other assets is low, which means timber is not very likely to lose value when, say, stocks are tumbling. Over the past two decades, the benchmark timber index has produced a tenfold return.

Furnace or Heat Pump Tune Upon the purchase of a furnace or heat pump

COMMEntaRYBy CJ McClanahan

My first car out of college was a Honda Ac-cord with more than 215,000 miles and no heat. After a brutally cold winter, I decided it was time to get a new car. I had never been into a car dealership in my life; so, I took my dad to help me with the process. Our second stop was a Toyota dealership.

We were greeted by Dan, a salesman with a major moustache. During the next few hours, Dan patiently educated me on the process of getting a new car. Later that evening, I became the proud owner of a new maroon Toyota Corolla.

The next two times I needed a new car, Dan was my guy. I bought three new cars from Dan in 10 years.

Why did I keep giving my business to the same individual? I realized I continued to visit Dan because I liked him and we developed a friendship.

Building trust and developing an emotional connection with others isn’t rocket science but for some reason, it can be difficult for people. By practicing a handful of simple behaviors, even the most introverted individual can quickly learn to develop rapport with a prospect, cus-tomer or new friend.

Remember most communication is non-

verbal. As a result, when you greet someone remember to smile and look them in the eye. If you think this advice is trivial, I suggest you visit any fast food restaurant. I don’t care if you’re busy or having a bad day – fake it.

In certain situations, I recommend you be genuinely curious. Instead, of simply worry-ing about how to get your needs met, find out a little bit more about the other person. Al-though I wouldn’t enjoy engaging in a lengthy conversation in line at Subway®, I do think it is appropriate to start off a business lunch by ask-ing about your guest’s background. Remember - people love to talk about themselves and tell their story.

Be empathetic. Attempt to put yourself in the shoes of the other person. If you sense you’re having a conversation with a person who is stressed, consider trying to lighten the mood. If they are in a hurry, cut to the chase.

As with most things in life, the solution is simple. All you need to do is choose to execute. Choose wisely.

Rapport builds relationships

Exxon Mobile (XOM) –The massive deal Exxon recently inked with Russia’s Rosneft should tell you that Exxon is not content to sit on its exist-ing reserves. The joint venture will hunt for oil in the Arctic Ocean, where estimates of recover-able hydrocarbon reserves range from 2.2 billion barrels to 7.2 billion barrels. On top of that, last year’s $41 billion acquisition of natural gas gi-ant XTO Energy was driven by the assumption that crude oil will eventually fall out of favor. Natural gas has been increasingly favored be-cause it is a cleaner-burning fossil fuel, and there is a lot of it in the United States, including mas-sive shale gas deposits in the Northeast that are being tapped with new drilling methods.MasterCard (MA) – As the cashless revolution sets in, this stock will continue to connect consum-ers’ bank accounts and merchants’ cash registers. The biggest growth is yet to come. Even in the United States, which is leading the cashless craze, 40 percent of all transactions are still executed with cash or checks. There are fewer transactions as

folks tighten their belts, yet MasterCard shares are up 47 percent in 2011 and at an all-time high. The

stock is up 400 percent in the past five years.Amazon.com (AMZN) – In June, Amazon was visited by 282 million people, or 20.4% of the world’s online population, according to com-Score. Think about that: 1 in 5 folks with an Internet connection visit the site each month. On top of that, you have the Kindle, a source of tremendous profits and an intriguing area of potential in the years to come. If you believe all the reports, the company’s e-reader will provide an entry-level alternative to the Apple’s iPad.

» Turn off peanut allergies? – Research-ers from Northwestern University found a way to tweak the immune system so that it doesn’t go haywire when foods like peanuts and eggs are encountered – in mice, at least. The trick to turning that reaction down – or even off - is to convince the body’s immune system that these foods are safe, said NU professor Paul J. Bryce, whose study was pub-lished in the Journal of Immunology. Bryce and his colleagues discovered that they could block that reaction by taking a bit of peanut protein, wrapping a white blood cell around it and then injecting the altered cell into an allergic mouse’s body. Once the immune system spots the protein lodged in a white blood cell it recalibrates, now designating the protein as safe.

» Vitamin E raises cancer risk? - Research-ers studying Vitamin E supplements as a way to reduce men’s risk of prostate cancer found they actually had the opposite effect, increas-ing the risk slightly, according to a recent study. The findings, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, are based on long-term follow-up of participants in a large cancer-prevention trial. An increase in cancer was originally noted in the study’ s Vitamin E-only group, but the results weren’t statistically significant. The follow-up, howev-er, which tracked the health of about half the trial’s original 35,000-plus participants, found a 17 percent increase in prostate cancer com-pared with men who took a placebo.

» Dietician pet peeve – Just because energy bars say they’re loaded with vitamins doesn’t necessarily make them a healthy choice. Many are packed with enriched white flour, high fructose corn syrup, saturated fat and little fiber. If you must replace a meal with an energy bar, choose one between 200 and 300 calories; for a snack, shoot for 150 calories or fewer. Opt for a bar with whole grain as the first ingredient, such as brown rice, whole wheat, or whole oat flour. And the shorter the ingredient list, the better.

COMMEntaRY By angela laSalle

What do pickles, sauerkraut, yogurt and miso all have in common? They are all fermented foods and good sources of probiotics. Probiot-ics is the bacteria living in your gastrointestinal tract, (which includes the mouth, esophagus, stomach and intestines). They are responsible for the healthy well being of the colon and for metabolism. The word probiotic comes from the Greek “ for life”.

Intestinal bacteria species such as bifidobac-teria, lactobacillus and non-toxic e-coli are the primary inhabitors of the colon. An estimated 100 trillion microorganisms representing more than 500 different species inhabit every normal, healthy bowel. They are responsible for many things we take for granted. Gas, bloating, loose and constipated stools, as well as malodorous flatus, beltching, reflux symptoms and even bad breath may be related to a colon not function-ing properly.

Because a large part of the body’s immune sys-tem is located in the digestive tract, maintaining a healthy balance of gut microflora is essential. The gastrointestinal tract serves as the first line of defense between the outside environment and the internal systems of the body. Outside toxins such as chemical toxins, bacteria, viruses or other compounds enter the intestine that they need to be neutralized. Bacteria provide release of their

own toxins interfering with outside invading infections. Additionally, they turn on your own immune antibody forming cells existing within your intestines called Peyer’s patches.

Bacteria in the colon will digest certain types of fiber to create energy to repair the colon, assist in digestion of food, provide nutrition for the body, enhance immune function and provide a basis for proper blood clotting via Vitamin K. Without the right bacteria to break down fiber, the fiber you take for constipation will not generate the energy to evacuate the colon.

At the present time benefits from main-taining a proper microflora include: reducing irritable bowel, diarrhea, constipation, poor digestion, eczema, allergies and Crohn’s disease while assisting with blood clotting, enhanced immunity and nutrition.

The eating of fermented foods such as noted above is helpful as is the use of over the counter probiotics available. Make sure you look to add some of these into your diet on an ongoing ba-sis. If you struggle with your gut, then seek out the help of a qualified health professional.

Kitchens aren’t just for cooking

Sue Faulstich is an interior designer for Z&R Design in Fishers. To contact Sue, write her at [email protected].

COMMEntaRYBy Sue Faulstich

Long ago, the importance of the kitchen as a gathering place was practically non-existent. Throughout the years, the kitchen has been transformed into an area where busy families can enjoy precious time together. The kitchen now includes features such as televisions, fireplaces with comfortable seating and computer areas. Not just for cooking anymore, today’s kitchen design includes consideration of every member of the household, including the dog.

I am in the midst of helping a long-time client remodel a kitchen. The home, which was built several decades ago, is undergoing a desperately needed alteration. The renovation plan includes taking down walls to open more space for family to congregate. While working with this close-knit family, I started thinking about how important it is to have a plan involving every family member; the head chef is not the only one who will benefit from this kitchen redo.

Listed here are some important thoughts and ideas from an interior designer’s perspective for anyone who is considering taking on a kitchen remodel of any size:

Assistance from a qualified kitchen designer will relieve stress. Investing in a professional’s time will eliminate the chance for forgotten details. Think of this fact when putting together a budget.

Remember to pay homage to your home. Try

to keep the new layout and design in line with the rest of your home.

A remodel allows a homeowner to do some major assessing; take the time to plan your new kitchen so it is functional for everything from entertaining to homework.

Consider having all finish selections, such as counter tops and cabinet knobs, chosen before the project gets underway. This will keep you from blowing your budget on impulsive decisions.

Over-head lighting, task lighting, and decora-tive lighting should work together as a team and still performing their individual duties.

If you watch “Extreme Makeover: Home Edi-tion” please remember the reality in this type of time table does not exist. A kitchen remodel is perhaps the toughest home interior remodel for a family to endure. However, the reward is well worth the wait... and headaches.

So, whether you simply want new counter tops or have been considering taking on the gruesome task of a full-scale kitchen remodel, first take into account these guidelines. With the proper pre-planning, professional assistance and balanced budgeting, a once stress-inducing project will go much smoother.

REMODLEINGBy larry greene

ORIGINAL HOME: This home located in the Me-ridian Hills area of India-napolis was built in 1969. The current homeowners have lived there for 17 years. The home was origi-nally built and designed by Avriel Shull, a famous architect well known for her stunning mid-century modern designs. The bathrooms had not been remodeled at all since the home was built. “We’ve lived in this home for 17 years and we decided it was time to remodel two of the three bathrooms for now”, said the homeowner.

CREATING NEW SPACE FOR ENLARGED SHOWER: The existing master bath shower felt small and closed in due to the size and the bulkhead located above. The solution was to eliminate the existing adjacent linen closet and increase the footprint of the shower and elimi-

nate the tub and the dry-wall bulkhead. According to the homeowner, “The new tile work in the mas-ter bath is absolutely stun-ning. We used to have to climb into the tub/shower to take our showers. We took out our linen closet to help make room for the enlarged shower. We love the big walk-in shower.”

MASTER BATHROOM DETAILS: The shower walls include new Arizona Beige ceramic tile extend-ing to the ceiling with Butera accent tile and a

14”x14” storage niche built into the wall. A new semi-frameless glass shower door and enclosure was installed with a brushed stainless finish and a D-pull handle.

FAVORITE FEATURES: The homeowner com-mented, “We completely gutted the bathroom including the ‘then’ popular bulkheads over the shower. We absolutely love the Cambria countertops. We went with Burton Brown with

standard edging in the hall bath. We went with Cardiff Cream in the master bath. The new cabinets we chose for both bathrooms are just gorgeous.”

GRRRRilled cheeseCOMMEntaRYBy Dick Wolfsie

“I don’t know who invented the grilled cheese sandwich, but I’m sure lately he’s been turning over in his grave. Turning over is an important aspect of a grilled cheese sandwich, so if he is turning over, he’s timing it exactly right.”

I wrote that almost 12 years ago, in one of my first humor columns. At the time, a few restau-rants had been offering some creative versions of the grilled cheese sandwich and I was wor-ried about the future of this childhood favorite. Now, more than a decade later, my concerns have come to fruition.

Time magazine reported this week restaurant chains specializing in this traditional favorite are now worming their way into malls and shop-ping centers across the country. Franchises like Gooeyz and Cheeseboy claim they are making grilled cheese sandwich, but I’m not buying it. I’m serious: I’m not buying it. It’s like a cranber-ry bagel. What Einstein came up with that idea?

The ingredients for a grilled cheese sandwich are simple: american cheese, white bread, butter

As soon as you try to make a better grilled cheese sandwich, it’s not a grilled cheese sand-wich. Instead, it’s a cheese sandwich grilled with artichokes or red peppers. Maybe it’s on sour-dough or artisan bread. Yuck.

Just because the recipe is simple doesn’t mean the preparation is easy. The pan needs to be

heated to just the right temperature, the butter needs to quietly nestle in the center of the pan, then trickle to the edges before it browns. The pan must then be covered as each side of the bread browns and the cheese melts perfectly.

By the way, I used to feel the same way about lemonade. You can call it raspberry lemonade, but it’s not lemonade. That used to drive me crazy. But I got over it. I can only fight so many battles.

I prepared a grilled cheese sandwich for my 24-year-old son the other day. It was a thing of beauty. I marveled at it in the pan as it browned and the cheese melted to perfection.

“How’s that grilled cheese sandwich, Brett?”“Oh, pretty good Dad. Could you pass the

ketchup?”“I could, if you want to be disinherited.”I eat grilled cheese sandwiches way too often.

In fact, I went for a medical check-up the other day and I got some bad news. “Dick, I’ve looked at your test results and this grilled cheese obses-sion you have is creating a problem.”

“Is it my cholesterol?”“No, your blood pressure.”
