It is our position that the recent lawsuit over Civil Forfeitures highlights some questionable pro-cedures that require correction. The Indiana Attorney General is spot-on when he advocates legislation to “clean up” and standardize the current procedures.

First, it seems un-American (and anti-Constitutional) to seize personal property before a party is convicted of a crime. Second, it seems to be an invitation for “mischief” for the law to not specify with total clarity how the seized property is to be used for the public good. And third, the use of pri-vate attorneys who are compensated by any means other than a reasonable hourly rate for the verified time spent on the forfeiture should be prohibited. The current practice of allowing the receipt of a percentage of the forfeiture for services seems a recipe for concern and is, in our opinion, unnecessary.

While we fully support requiring those guilty of crimes to pay for the law enforcement costs and to not profit from their illegal activities, the legislation must provide unambiguous directions for distributing the proceeds from the forfeitures and not allow local law enforcement officials to be improperly incentivized to specifically benefit from an overly zealous pursuit of justice.

Civil pursuit UnemploymentIt is our position that unemployment insur-

ance is a good thing. It is paid for by employers and is cost adjusted according to each employer’s history of layoffs. However, Government “handouts” (currently between 27 and 99 weeks) seems to move beyond unemployment to a taxpayer subsidy of those who are not working. Can unemployment be sustained without encouraging dependence or should displaced workers be moved into a different social program after months of failed seeking? Many will admit the refusal of tasks compensated for little more than extended unemployment provides. Say they – it’s not worth it to work. Others abuse unemployment not intending to reenter the workforce.

Certainly, most of us would (or are) diligently seek employment to no avail. Americans are generous people and it is our belief that the truly needy would be better served by other existing government programs or commu-nity charity rather than the creation of a permanent entitlement guised as unemployment. Employers routinely cite a refusal by American workers to perform certain tasks as the impetus behind a significant portion of our illegal immigration challenges. Of course, many of these jobs would be inappropriate for some unemployed. Scientific jobs routinely require importation of labor.

Editor,I liken the redistricting process to a leaky pipe.

Do you walk into your bathroom and clean up the water on the floor day after or day, or do you look for the root cause of the leak?? Concrete data would not be that difficult to obtain, all the school board has to do is ask.

As a parent of two future Carmel Clay students, I would love to see some sort of “Pre-Registration” process where I can provide my contact info along with the ages of my children to help forecast future start dates. An annual survey could be conducted to account for the attrition of people moving out of the district (as simple as an email correspon-dence from the contact information provided by the parents), and a simple mailer providing “Pre-

registration” sign up to account for new parents moving into the district.

I understand the concept of redistricting, espe-cially the aspect of teacher to student ratio’s. There are some things that cannot be changed such as the physical location of the schools (the majority being on the east side of Carmel and the “future growth” happening on the west side of Carmel.

It just seems like an awful lot of guessing is go-ing on (wiping up the water) instead of gathering concrete data from parents (finding the root cause of the leak). Redistricting is a necessary evil, but do so many children need to be affected?

REaDER'S VIEW

“Your employer, it’s estimated, would see premiums fall by as much as 3,000 (dollars), which means they could give you a raise.” – President Barack Obama, Sept. 10, 2010.

The Obama Administration has handed out, as of earlier this month, 222 ObamaCare waivers to “special” U.S. companies and or-ganizations. Only a few news sources have reported this. However, if you go to www.cur-rentincarmel.com and click on the link titled ObamaCare Waivers, you’ll be saved from five of the six click-thrus we had to endure on the Health and Human Services Web site. It is, in our opinion, tantamount to hiding from the American taxpayer. The sad thing is if you’re a small-business owner or you don’t have the right connections, you can’t get a waiver for your company. Do you really believe any of the employees at the 222 companies will get a raise as a result? Neither do we.

• • •Hamilton County government has elimi-

nated 15 positions in order to make the 2011 budget work. As much as it’s never a good time to let someone go, we still commend leadership for doing what is necessary – as the private sector would do – to be fiscally

responsible. It should have been done earlier.• • •

We heard from a few spies last week that there is a virtual impasse between Carmel City Council and Mayor Jim Brainard on a number of issues. There supposedly is finger-pointing, ill will and perhaps some sour grapes in the mix. With more than one year before any appreciable change in the lineup – too soon to tell if there will be any – our community deserves better. Too many initia-tives are hanging in the balance. We’d like to see one side or the other – or each! – extend an olive branch and get down to what mat-ters: doing what’s best for this city.

There is one cranky critic in every group. Even in the One Hundred Acre Woods, Chris-topher Robin suffered the oppressive sad-sack Eeyore. But for the most part the habitually unhappy and the constantly cranky do little to debilitate the comings and goings of modern society. In fact, a little bit of pessimism is of-ten a good thing in the mix. It helps prevent the dreaded side effect of optimism in a public setting – groupthink. We all must beware of the negative. But isn’t it better to consider it with some sense of relativity?

And, what happens when a group or board is controlled by an abject hater – especially when we have dedicated a good deal of emo-tion, time, and resources over the years. While a dash of cynicism might be helpful, some assemblies are gripped by individuals who, by their very nature, live to disparage the work, contribution, and in some cases, the very exis-tence of others. Certainly, disparate points of view are important. When does criticism sim-

ply become entertainment for the critic?Social structures encourage cooperation.

And, most of us find our way, through retribu-tion and reinforcement, to behave in a way that keeps the collective on track. However, some simply refuse to be on the same program as the rest. In business, those folks are invited to seek other opportunities. But when the naysayer is a superior or the group is a not-for-profit, how best should we react? I find myself now contem-plating exiting an organization populated by one too many angry members. To me, it seems snarky e-mail messages and abrupt personal communications destroy the Board’s esprit de corps. Others write off bad behavior to person-ality. Perhaps, camaraderie cannot be measured as easily as other metrics; but, I’m confident that it matters. And, it matters a good deal.

Cranky critics

Certainly, disparate points of view are important. When does criticism simply become entertainment for the critic?

Making a point to say Christmas Editor,

There is one reason we are celebrating in December and that is because of Christmas. Christmas does bring us to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. I am asking you, Current in Carmel, to join with all of us that want to put Christ back in Christmas and make this a

Christmas celebration instead of “Holidays.” The word Holidays is taking away the meaning of this celebration which is at the heart of the formation of our country. Please join with us in celebrating “Christmas.”

Out of the mouths of babes come the darndest things. We all know that. We’ve all been there. Just the other day I was talking to my husband about some friends of ours who were at that very moment in labor with their first babies. (Yes, plu-ral, as in twin boys.) I recalled the morning Mr. Prego called to tell me the news: “Twins mother-f*%#er!” he sang the minute I answered the phone. No “hi” or “hello,” just a joyful chorus of cursing.

As I’m laughing with Doo about the story, I hear, with perfect emotion, inflection and pitch, my 6-year old daughter belt out, “Twins –f*%#er!” Huh. I hadn’t realized she was in the kitchen. Now she’ll probably repeat it at school or, worse, her Religious Ed class. Sorry, Father!

Later that day, my little potty mouth asks, “Will the Prego’s babies have brown skin?” Granted, this seems like an odd question, until you know that my children have twin cousins who were adopted from Ethiopia and do in fact have very brown skin. So actually, this is a rather astute observation from a first grader. (She’s

gifted.) I go on to explain that no, because Mr. and Mrs. Prego have white skin, their boys will most likely have white skin too. She’s satisfied and scampers off on her merry, innocent way.

The next morning, as I’m updating the kids on the progress of the Prego’s labor, which is turning in to a marathon event, my 9-year old son says, “I really hope Ms. Prego has her twins today. She’s been wanting a baby for so long. It’ll be a dream come true for her.” Gulp. Tear. How sweet was that? The Pregos have been wait-ing a long time for kids; four years of infertility

and various treatments. And this is, most definitely, a dream come true for them. But hear-ing a comment like that out of a boy who occasionally picks his nose and often pushes me to the brink of crazy made me both reorder our kid rank-ings with him at the top and remember just how wise and observant children can be.

Yes, kids say the darndest things. Some funny, some suprising, and some just down-right adult-like. Of course, I think the Pregos would say that the best thing to hear out of the mouths of babes is those first healthy cries in the deliv-

ery room. (The Pregos did eventually have their twin boys, by the way, after a very long and dif-ficult labor, just one day shy of Thanksgiving.) I agree, but secretly I can’t wait to hear the things that come out of those two little boys in a cou-ple of years. Twins mother-f*%#er! Peace out.

The 19th annual Carmel Financial Holiday Food Drive collected a record number of goods for the Good Samaritan Network.

Since March, Carmel Financial has been working collecting monetary donations, food and support for the drive, through a variety of community fundraisers and internal drives. Lo-cally owned and operated, Carmel Financial has been a community staple since 1967 and the food drive has become just as well known since its start in 1992.

“The best part of this whole experience is to see those A. Arnold Moving semis pull up to the fire department, just filled with donations,” said Kathleen Thomas, the Food Drive Coordinator and Carmel Financial employee. “It’s so won-derful to see the results of a yearlong project.”

Partnering with other area businesses and organizations has been key to the success of the drive according to Thomas and Sharon Van Hoozer, Senior Vice President. Through CarX and A. Arnold Moving, and working with other businesses to collect donations, Carmel Finan-cial has helped to build a network for the drive to get the most food, monetary and in-kind donations possible. Internally, Carmel Financial employees can pay to wear jeans to work, and participate in walkathons, cook offs, and gold outings.

Van Hoozer said that by donating through the Good Samaritan Network, which is a non-profit conglomerate, they are able to effectively reach the people in need.

“We have a saying that no gift is too small when we come together,” said Van Hoozer. “The goal for us is to reach as many as we can year round, and especially during the holidays. With the economy, people who might have given in the past might be in need now.”

This year’s donations totaled 96,513 items that were delivered to needy families across Hamilton County. All extra food is donated to local food pantries.

The Carmel City Council met Dec. 6 with a full agenda, notably including tax abatements for new business, and the normalization of speed limits on Keystone Avenue.

After receiving updates from committee lead-ers, the council moved to open a public hearing on a proposed tax abatement for KAR Auction Services, Inc. According to Councilwoman Luci Snyder, who sponsored the resolution, the abatements would remove taxes on telecom-munications equipment for the business, which purportedly plans to bring nearly 250 new jobs to the Carmel area. Councilman John Accetturo was in agreement with Snyder’s proposal.

“In order for our city to be competitive, we must continue to use these tax abatements to attract jobs,” Accetturo said.

The council also heard a first reading for an ordinance to set the speed limit to 50 mph for Keystone from 96 St. to 146 St. The ordinance was intended to amend an earlier version, which had allowed for discrepancies on Keystone. With unanimous support, the council moved to suspend the rules and vote on the ordinance immediately. It was approved with no dissenting votes.

As Councilwoman Snyder noted, the State of Indiana recently amended Public Law 113,

which concerned the use of a special fund gen-erated by cigarette taxes. Changes to the relevant city ordinance were sponsored by Snyder, who explained that under the new law, these funds would be available for government use on a much wider variety of expenditures.

“This money used to be only useable for capi-tal improvement,” Sndyer said. “Now it can be used on software, equipment, and many other things.”

Of particular note to public safety, a reso-lution amending the contract with the Car-mel Professional Firefighters Association was brought before the council. According to the firefighter’s union president Orbie Bowles, the contract is essentially the same as the previous year.

“We’ve brought a new ambulance into service in the annexed areas, and moved our rescue truck team and equipment into a tiller truck,” Bowles said, adding that no additional costs were set before the taxpayers.

The resolution was sent before the utilities, transportation and public safety committee for further inspection.

The final resolution before the council called for the repayment of $800,000 from the 2009 General Fund to the Rainy Day Fund, which had been promised earlier in the year. The reso-lution was approved unanimously.

Wilkerson Farley had a dream one day back in early 1838 about his death and burial. He pictured exactly where he wanted to be put to rest, near a specific tree in what is now Carmel, Indi-ana. Since Farley was only 17 years old at the time, no one gave his vision much thought - until he passed away August 27 of that same year.

Wanting to honor his wishes, a family plot was estab-lished at the corner of North Keystone Avenue and East 106th Street and Wilkerson was buried by that very tree in Farley Cemetery*.

The site now accommodates 339 plots with some still available for purchase, which is a boon to Clay Township Trustee Doug Callahan. Responsible for the care and upkeep of his town-ship’s abandoned cemeteries, Calla-han has limited funds to see that all such grounds are not only mowed and fenced, but repaired as needed. And the need is great.

Income from Farley plot pur-chases has allowed Callahan the luxury of hiring cemetery restoration expert John Walters, The Graveyard Groomer, to come out and at least give estimates on the work needed at several of Clay’s oldest burial grounds. Little by little, as budget allows, Cal-lahan has Walters work on the areas neediest stones.

At the top of the list? The stone that marked the spot of which Wilkerson Farley dreamed.

Over the years, Farley’s stone had

disappeared, though records showed where it should have been standing. Walters probed the area (something only a DNR certi-fied, permitted individual can do) and found Wilkerson Farley’s stone, 17 inches below ground.

Today the stone stands tall and pristine, though others in the same cemetery are in desperate need of cleaning and restoration work, which does not require certification or permitting. Calla-han utilizes volunteers like the Boy Scouts and Military Veterans to clean and improve the four abandoned graveyards under his care. He has even garnered help from an IUPUI graduate student to survey and map the ground.

Most abandoned cemeteries, some of which were affiliated with long-gone churches, families or communities, are closed to

further burials and are often hidden away in farm fields or country woodlands. All but

forgotten by some, Callahan has a deep appreciation for these

sacred places but admits that was not always the case.

“When I started I didn’t realize how big this was for people,” said the three-year-trustee. “But I soon found out that genealogy is the number one hobby in the coun-try. I decided I needed to jump in and get to work.

“We still have work to do,” said Callahan, “and there always will be. But it’s so important to take care of these cemeteries. This is history out here.”

Noblesville’s Grave-yard Guardians restora-tion team, Lorraine Doty and Timothy Moore, hope more trustees will catch a bit of the enthusiasm Cal-lahan displays, citing

safety and liability concerns along with the damage time and the elements are doing to older stones.

That’s why Indiana Code 23-14-68-1, charging local Township Trustees with the “care, repair and maintenance” of the State’s abandoned cemeteries, was put in place ten years ago.

“We constantly have people approach us and ask; ‘Can you do something about this old cemetery?’” stated Doty, “but we can’t until township and county governments make budgeting for res-toration work a priority.

“A budget as small as $10,000 per township each year could do wonders for getting this mandated restoration on the right track,” Doty continued. “Yet many in government do not see this as a priority. But most residents do. People need to contact their gov-ernment leaders and make sure this becomes a priority.”

For most trustees the current game plan is ‘slow and steady wins the race’ with modest amounts of progress made each year. The problem is, the elements work at a faster pace, eroding and degrading the stones faster than the trustees can garner the funds or free labor to save them.

Current in Carmel Carmel Police Chief Michael Fogarty was rec-

ognized by his peers and members of the com-munity last week, before his January retirement.

At an open house honoring Chief Fogarty’s 15 years as Carmel’s Police Chief and over 40 years of public service, city leaders and members of the public safety departments spoke about his dedicated service to community focused and

interactive public safety and service, and wished the best for the Chief.

“It is such a high honor for me to see so many out to wish me well,” said Fogarty. “I will miss dearly the friends I’ve made during my tenure as Carmel Police Chief.”

Chief Fogarty retires in January and will be succeeded by current Assistant Chief of Police Tim Green.

COmmEntaRYby Jeff Worrell

As the crowd made their way out of the Car-mel High School Auditorium, it was obvious the show was a huge hit. I was in awe of the tre-mendous vocal and dance talent at CHS. But, I couldn’t help but wonder about all of the talent it must take behind the scenes to make Holiday Spectacular 2010 such an amazing event.

It did not take me long to find an answer. Once back stage, I first ran into Parent Volun-teer Coordinator Lucy Hunter. Going on some seven years of service, Lucy clearly is dedicated and gifted at making sure there is enough help to herd 540 some kids, through five shows and practice after practice. But the great thing about all of the volunteers I met backstage at Holiday Spectacular is that none of them wants to take any credit. “Our family believes in ser-vice, she said. This is how I give back.”

Denise Wright calls herself a “Professional Volunteer.” Her job was to make sure each per-former received goody bags and other impres-sive, personalized mementos of their participa-tion. She ensures before each performance, the cast raises a glass of cider to toast a good show. But of course, I could not get Denise to take any credit either. She thought I should talk to Judith Hicks.

Maybe Judith would take a bow, but she was too busy for credit. This lady uses safety pins like I use duct tape. She was the 2010 Costume

Coordinator for the Accents, managing about four costume changes for the 40 plus members of the Accents choir. It was her second year and you can count on her to be back for more, but that’s only after she removes all of the bling from every dress, prepares them for the laundry and neatly puts each item away for a future show.

Linda Maurer, Patty Keller, Dawn Michaelis, Jennifer Stoesz, Natalie Maenhout, Pam White and countless unnamed moms and dads built sets, steamed costumes, brushed out wigs and sewed, sewed, sewed. Anyone that knows any-thing about Holiday Spectacular, knows without Mrs. Conrad, Mr. Kuskye and Mrs. Gillespie, nothing else matters. But the volunteer parents that showed up to help on weekends and eve-nings were following a longstanding tradition started generations ago that guarantees kids in the choir can count on their parents.

The best part of my backstage experience was the gratitude I witnessed from some of the Accents showing appreciation for the amazing parent support. Parents and kids were together, feeling loved and carrying on a strong choral tradition.

Behind the scenes, the Accents find support

» Winter break for schools' – Carmel Clay Schools last day of classes for the semester is Thursday, Dec. 16. Classes resume Monday, Jan. 3, 2011 for all stu-dents. For a copy of the district calendar visit, www.wws.k12.in.us.

» Students win scholarship – Local stu-dent Lyndon Ji of Carmel, and his teammate Santhosh Narayan of Munster, Indiana won major scholarships at the Siemens Competi-tion in Math, Science and Technology in Washington DC. Jeffrey Shen, Youkow Homma and Lyndon Ji, Carmel, Indiana won $50,000 scholarships. Santhosh Na-rayan won the $30,000 scholarship.

» High school recycles – On America Re-cycles Day, Carmel High School International Baccalaureate students held an electronics and general recycling drop-off. Electronic items filled three semi-truck trailers and a 40 yard dumpster was filled entirely with various other recyclable materials. Nearly 150,000 pounds were collected during the drive!

» Study: Drugs improperly prescribed to kids – The annual number of children prescribed anti-psychotic drugs jumped fivefold between 1995 and 2002, to an esti-mated 2.5 million, a recent study says. But more than half of the prescriptions were for attention deficit and other non-psy-chotic conditions, the researchers said. The increasing use of anti-psychotics since the mid-1990s corresponds with the introduc-tion of costly and heavily marketed medi-cations such as Zyprexa and Risperdal. The packaging information for both says their safety and effectiveness in children have not been established. Anti-psychotics are intended for use against schizophrenia and other psychotic illnesses.

» Science performance scores inch up – American students’ performance in science improved to the international average for industrialized nations, though outstanding performance in mathemat-ics was still lagging. The highlights of the global PISA study, which surveyed 15-year-olds, showed that in science, the U.S. score increased from 2006’s score of 489 to 502. The score was on the same level as nations such as Portugal, Belgium and the Czech Republic. South Korea, Japan, and Finland scored the highest in science. The response to the results of the study, from the U.S. Department of Education was not positive as they emphasized the need to further improve education.

When I became a parent coach, it created a different perspective on parenting for me. I don’t recall the first time I began listening to myself as a parent and hearing my words through the ears of my children. Becoming a coach helped me hear my words. Yes, there is a difference, and it’s more than just words. I began listening to my-self, yet I didn’t hear the trust the children were placing with me.

I heard myself saying, “C’mon kids, I’ll give you a ride to your friends house.” What I didn’t hear was, “Thanks Mom, I trust you’ll get us there safely.” Actually, they never said that, but think about it. Trust is the subconscious message our kids give us each and every time they trust us to get them to where they want to go – phys-ically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.

What is trust? Experts have found that the first emotionally intelligent feeling we are born with is trust. This, of course, applies to our kids too. Trust is not something we can grab a hold of and give to our kids, but it is something we can help them feel. In the field of child develop-ment, disciplines refer to methods of modeling character and of teaching self-control and ac-ceptable behavior. Some disciplines of trust are reliability, faithfulness, confidence, believability and hopefulness.

Being aware of the disciplines of trust we are teaching our children is helping our children be aware of the disciplines of trust they are capable of. They will know they can be trusted to be …• Reliable children who can be counted on.• Faithful children who are loyal.• Confident children who make good

choices.• Believable children who keep their word.• Hopeful children who have a positive

vision. Behavioral issues are practically nonexistent when

we instill these disciplines of trust. To build a sustain-ing, trusting relationship with our children, include them in family decisions, avoid evaluations, judg-ments or comparisons, offer choices – not demands or orders, avoid labeling and enabling – they are dis-abling, and listen to our words and hear them from our children’s perspective.

Finally, using the word trust in as many sentences as we can fit in encourages our kids to want to live up to the trust we put in them. “Thank you for your trust.” is just one example.

Hugs!

No, I’m not talking about the band, though I do love “Pinball Wizard,” among other songs.

This week, I’m revisiting a few rules about using who, whom, and that. I’ve covered many topics regard who before, but I continue to email asking about its use, so I thought I’d re-view a bit.

Who vs. thatFor reasons I cannot explain, this is one of

my bigger pet peeves. It doesn’t make sense that it would irritate me so much when there are so many more grave errors out there to get worked up about. I think it’s just because most people don’t realize it’s a rule at all.

Who should only be used to refer to people. Not even your beloved Pomeranian dog Trixie gets to be referred to as who. Just people.

On the flip side, that should not refer to people, and referring to people as that is the big-gest misuse of this rule. So you should never say, “The guy that cleans my car is bald,” unless the guy is a hairless gorilla or other glabrous non-human entity. Say instead, “The guy who cleans my car is bald.”

Who vs. whomKnowing when to use who versus when to use

whom is really a matter of knowing the differ-ence between subject and object pronouns. If the person in question is doing the action, use who, but if the person is being acted upon, use whom.

If the terms subject and object pronouns make you break out in hives, however, there is a little trick to remember which to use when: Think of the use of who and whom in terms of questions. If you can answer the question with him (or her, but him ends in m, so it works better in this analogy), use whom, but if you need to answer the question with he (again, or she), you’ll need who. For example:

I need to know who/whom ate this pie. He did. (Use who.)I need to know who/whom she took to prom. She took him. (Use whom.)

If you’re using the first explanation, in the first sentence who is doing the action of eating, but in the second sentence whom is being acted upon by being taken to prom.

It’s time to revisit the ‘who’


When: Dec 3-30, 5-9:00 p.m. (Closed Christmas Eve and Christmas Day)Where: Indianapolis Zoo, 1200 W. Washington StreetDetails: Visit the Indianapolis Zoo for a holiday tradition. The grounds are a winter wonderland with twinkling lights and decorations, and the animals all have the holiday spirit too!

» December gardening tips – 1. To protect tender perennials from harsh winter weather, build a wooden box with no top or bottom. Place it over the plants after the ground has frozen and fill with leaves. 2. Cover your compost pile to pre-vent rains and snows from leaching out nutrients. 3. If iris foliage is hit with heavy frost, remove and destroy it to eliminate borer eggs.

» Small lights, big impact – Looking to throw a great holiday party on the cheap? Buy a 100 pack of tea lights for about $10. Break out a few dozen and cluster them together in between trays of snacks, on your coffee table and throughout the party room. There’s just something about twinkling candlelight that makes even your everyday stuff seem more special.

» Look for midweek airfare sales – Airline sales are invariably short-lived and typically last no more than three days. Airlines tend to roll them out late Monday or early Tuesday morning; by Thursday, they’re gone. That brief win-dow is your optimum time to search for the best deal of the week.

» Lunar eclipse Dec. 21 – A total eclipse of the moon will occur in the early hours of Dec. 21. A lunar eclipse occurs when the earth passes between the sun and the moon, dimming the moon and giving it unusual coloring. While every eclipse is special, this one is attended by many stars and constellations. The promi-nent constellations of Orion, Gemini, Auriga and Taurus frame the Moon on eclipse night.

PICK Of THE WEEK

christmas at the zoo

From now through Jan. 1, holiday theater enthusiasts can see “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” at the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre on the campus of Marian Univer-sity. This Andrew Lloyd Webber rock musical follows the life of Joseph and his brothers from the Bible and is the featured holiday show at Civic.

According to Laura Lockwood, a Carmel resident, who plays one of the wives and Mrs. Potiphar in the show, “Joseph” is a great way to reign in the holiday season during these busy months. “It’s a great holiday show because it is truly for family. So kids, parents: you can bring the whole family and enjoy it,” she said.

Michael J. Lasley, producing director for the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre, also described the show as a family event, saying that it holds appeal for all ages. “It’s really a show for the en-tire family. Particularly we use children’s choirs in the show,” Lasley said. “Kids love it because it’s fast-paced and colorful with lots of fun mu-sic, and there are lots of simple funny things for them, and there’s also some complex adult humor that’s woven into it as well.”

In addition to the children’s choirs, which have singers ranging in age from 6 to 15, Lasley said that there is a wide variety of music in the show, including country-western, 50s Elvis-inspired and Broadway pop.

As the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre pre-pares to move to Carmel next year, Lockwood said that everyone in the staff is looking forward to bringing more shows like “Joseph” to Carmel and Hamilton County.

“We are all very excited about the move. The new space that’s going to be built is going to be phenomenal,” she said. “We’re excited as performers to have a new rehearsal space, and also to have a new audience to reach out to that maybe hasn’t seen a show at the Civic before.”

For Matthew Altman, a Carmel resident

who plays one of Joseph’s brothers, Dan, in the show, performing arts and shows like “Joseph” are essential to the community and especially important for children. “We don’t get a lot of theater around Indiana in general,” Altman said. “Because of the fact that Civic is now moving to Carmel, I think that it’s important that we get all people to support theater. What Civic does is they inspire people out there who might want to come into theater to do something fun, and we have kids in the show, so it really gets their creative minds going.”

Any restaurant that combines top-notch fare with wine, art and music is our kind of place. With Sangiovese, the combina-tion certainly clicks. Many patrons be-lieve Sangivese serves the best Italian fare around. We’ll leave that to you to decide, but the warm, inviting décor, the attentive-ness of the staff and the skillful artistry of the chefs seem to be the perfect ingredients for a memorable meal. The restaurant’s signature dishes include Scaloppini alla Picatta (tender sliced veal sautéed with capers in a white wine lemon butter sauce), Salomone al Piatto (poached Atlantic salmon topped with tomatoes, fresh basil and olive oil finished with a pinot grigio reduction ), Rosticciana (sautéed pork loin stuffed with mortadella cheese, Italian sausage, fen-nel and provolone topped with a gorgonzola cream sauce) and Pollo Arrosto (roasted half chicken marinated in fresh rosemary, lemon and garlic infused olive oil). The wine list seems to be more than adequate and the pairings are expertly suggested. Indiana artists’ works are on display (currently those of Mi-chelle Morocco of Bloomington) and the vibe is enhanced by background music from the likes of Dave Hepler, Dave Lowe and Jes and Vicky Richmond, among others.

Originally, Santa’s ninth reindeer was featured in a book written by Robert May for Montgomery Ward’s depart-ment store in the 1930s. The popu-lar story was turned into a song by May’s brother-in-law Johnny Marks in 1948, and soon became the well-known for the recording by singing cowboy, Gene Autry.

Marks went on to become a prolific songwriter of holiday tunes and other popular songs, and in the late 1950s served as the director of the Association of Composers, Authors and Publishers. He started St. Nicholas Music to manage and publish Christmas music, and had one of the widest catalogs of popular holiday songs through his company, including hits such as “A Holly Jolly Christmas” and “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree”.

I prepare a baked stuffed Brie which is great for entertaining especially if you need to take something or a pot luck, I have made it many times and people rave. I have had to teach my mom, sister and in-laws, etc. I also like to make some good hearty foods like beef brisket braised with orange juice and barbeque sauce, and homemade Butternut squash and Mascar-pone cheese raviolis, or baked individual Apple Dumplings. Fresh ingredients of the season are always the best, and I utilize them in my dishes.What do you do with your holiday leftovers? I do three things at home. First, I make a full plate as to be ready to eat but in a disposable container. I then freeze it to eat later in the month, or give to my kids to take back to col-lege for their freezer. I also take the ingredients useable and make soups, like turkey vegetable soup with rice, or cream of mashed potato with chopped turkey and beans. And last, I make a pasta topping and/or sauce, cook my favorite

pasta and pour over the top for a nice gourmet pasta dish, like diced honey ham with peas, diced potatoes and mushrooms with Alfredo sauce over noodles, or sautéed turkey with left over vegetables in a turkey cream sauce over rigatoni.Michael Richards Kincaid’s What is your favorite holiday dish to prepare?Well I usu-ally work Christmas Eve, but go home for Christmas. My mom usually cooks for us but over the past several years I’ve taken over a bit more of the responsibility to carry out our traditional meals. We usually make leg of lamb at Christmas and use fresh herbs like rosemary and sage. It’s unique also because we serve it with Major Grey’s Chutney. And my mom makes the best yams, still. What do you do with your holiday leftovers? I usually take the lamb and make a kind of lamb lettuce cup, with tzatziki sauce and Greek spices and wrap the lamb in the lettuce so it’s a much fresher taste than a regular gyro.

» Black-tie basics – Your black-tie attire should consist of the following founda-tional components: a black, single-button, single-breasted jacket with a peak lapel (the points of the lapel point should point upward) and trousers that have a silk stripe or braiding running along the out-side seam of the leg. Your shirt should be of white Marcella. French cuffs are a must. A regular fold-down collar is the purist’s choice. A cummerbund also is a must, and make sure the pleats are facing upward. A shawl collar is acceptable, but less formal. Also remember that dinner suits fit closer to the body than business suits.

COmmEntaRYby Vicky Earley

Do you recall the first time you walked through the door of house that was destined to become yours? Do you remember the moment you realized that this was the house that you wanted to make a home?

The days and weeks that led up to the mo-ment when the keys would cross a closing table were filled with daydreams and plans on how you could decorate this new house and truly make it your home.

Chances are, you moved in, life happened, and your best intentions fell by the wayside. Much of your home has remained the way it was on move-in day. It is no wonder it has lost its luster and is no longer the house that you fell in love with.

Rather than continue living in house medi-ocrity and boredom, be pro-active. You can re-kindle the love you once had for this house that was to become your home.

Here are eight steps to begin with that don’t require huge sums of money for remodeling.

1. If you still have the original builder beige wall, jump in the deep end and start roll-ing the paint!

2. If the house that you purchased came with older shades and vertical blinds, consider ditching them and let the sun shine in

your sparkling clean windows! 3. Move your furniture around. Living

rooms contain furniture that is hardly ever used, and it’s usually in much bet-ter condition than what’s in the family room. Move the furniture around and put beautiful slipcovers on the older items for a fresh appearance to match the new color design.

4. Get rid of clutter ... nothing feels better than a home that is tidy and organized.

5. Update light fixtures! If you still have the bright brass from the 1980s, stop waiting for the style to come back around. If it does, it won’t look like the fixture that has been hanging in your house since Ronald Reagan was in office.

6. Update plumbing fixtures! It is amazing what a new faucet can do to a powder room or a kitchen sink

7. If the bedding in your master bedroom was once marketed as a “bed in a bag,” bag it and purchase grown-up bedding!

8. Lose the half-alive (aka almost dead) plants in your home. Remember, plants are not pets ... they are vegetation. If that hurts too much, relocate them to the laundry room and declare it the Intensive Care Unit.

If you implement some of these changes, there is a good chance you will remember why you love your home. If not, you can always con-sider “counseling” with a design professional!

Love your home?

As men grow older, testosterone production drops. Testosterone is the androgen hormone that makes men men, and it plays key roles in the male sex drive, maintaining muscle and bone mass and hair growth. It is also is essential in overall health and well being, and even in the prevention of health issues such as the onset of osteoporosis.

The loss of testosterone in men can start as early as 35, with levels dropping 1 to 1.5 percent every year on average. With some men the loss can be fairly dramatic, with symptoms such as loss of en-ergy, depression and low libido. Some doctors and researchers believe that it’s as if men go through a male menopause, termed andropause, character-ized by loss of testosterone. Just like menopause in women, andropause wreaks havoc on the hor-monal balance of middle-aged men.

Although the loss of testosterone as men age is inevitable, there are natural ways to increase testosterone production. Two natural herbs can help increase the production of testosterone: Tribulus and Fenuside, also known as Testofen.

Tribulus is a flowering plant native to Europe with active components that are steroidal sapo-nins, the most active of which is called protodia-scin. Steroidal sapnins are simply building blocks

the body uses to manufacture hormones. Proto-diascin has been shown to increase the produc-tion of luteinizing hormone LH, which signals the human body to produce more testosterone.

Fenucide, also known as Testofen, is derived from the seeds of the plant fenugreek. Testofen boosts mechanisms in the body that enhance the production of the key adrenocorticotrophin hormone (ACTH). ACTH is a potent stimu-lant on the adrenal cortex to increase androgen synthesis, which is precursor to testosterone. A small double-blind placebo study, conducted in 2009 by Gencor Pacific, showed that Testofen can enhance testosterone levels by as much as 100 percent over an 8-week period in the male participants receiving the supplement.

Both Tribulus and Testofen can be taken safely by any health adult as they work with the body’s mechanisms to increase testosterone lev-els within natural limits, and adverse side effects are rare. Of course always consult with a doctor before taking if you have health conditions or are taking medication.

A natural answer for low testosterone in aging men?» Shellfish may help eyesight – Eat-

ing foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon and

tuna, seems to be good for not only the heart

and mind but the eyes. A new study adds shell-

fish to that group. It found that seniors who ate at least one serving a week of fish or shellfish high in omega-3s reduced their risk of developing advanced age-related macular degeneration, a disease that affects vision, by 60 percent.

Here we go again. A recent study from the Institute of Medicine has suggested that patients do not need higher levels of Vitamin D. Their recommendations seem to fly in the face of recent recommendations touting that improv-ing Vitamin D levels may reduce the risks of heart disease, diabetes, cancer and autoimmune disease.

Media headlines are suggesting that perhaps patients are being misdiagnosed with deficiency, and physicians, including one of my colleagues, are asking, “So, do I give my patient a handout regarding the importance of Vitamin D or not?” A similar situation ensued with recent headlines about hormone replacement.

Media headlines regarding medical topics can create problems for both patients and physi-cians, and unfortunately, it is up to the reader to sort out whether a particular report is of merit and how it applies to their care. This is a dif-ficult task given that medical topics are not most people’s area of expertise. Due to time con-straints, even physicians are prone to be misled by the latest headlines, making it critical for the patients to be proactive and ask the right ques-tions of their practitioners.

Here are some questions that you might con-sider when talking to your doctor:

1. Have you heard about the recent report/study regarding this topic? Chances are that you may have seen the news or read about it before your doctor has. Don’t be afraid to supply a copy of the article or reference.

2. Does this in any way affect my current therapy?

3. Am I on the same medication/treatment that was used in this study?

4. Should I modify the dose or change what I am doing currently?

5. Do any of the risk factors listed in the study apply to me?

By asking the right questions of your physi-cian, you’ll be able to protect your health with the latest treatment recommendations. After all, two rules apply: “Don’t believe everything you read” and “everything in moderation.”

Medical media: Hope or hype?

Goldman Sachs, for instance, just revised its gloomy prediction of a 2 percent increase in gross domestic product in 2011 to 2.7 percent and forecast 3.6 percent growth for 2012. Still, employers aren't hiring freely. The economy added a net total of just 39,000 jobs in November, the government said recently. That's far too few even to stabilize the unemployment rate, which rose from 9.6 percent in October to 9.8 percent last month. Unemployment is widely expected to stay above 9 percent through next year.

Little Jacquie is about to turn three. She is a spirited child with a determined mind and seemingly rigid attitude. She is, however, the sweetest and most loving little girl you’ll ever meet – when she wants to be. Last weekend the girls and I were about to head out for breakfast. I put her 4-year-old sister in the car, buckled her in and then went around to do the same for little Jacquie. Suddenly, she began to mumble through her pacifier a group of words that sounded like French. I abruptly pulled the paci-fier from her mouth and asked her to repeat the words that accompanied such anger. She kept saying something I didn’t understand. Again and again she shouted so loudly, but I couldn’t make out what she said.

Frustrated, I looked to her older sister for advice. “Zoe, what does she want?” Her sister re-sponded, “The tinkle book Daddy.” I said it aloud, “The tinkle book?” Jacquie echoed with force, “Yeah, the tinkle book!” She said it again and again each time swinging her arms to show her distaste. I asked her sister again, “What is she talking about?” The same calm reply followed, “She wants the tinkle book Daddy.” Again I asked Jacquie, who was getting so mad that I too was about ready to blow my top, scuttle the entire excursion, and call

in their mother.With one final request of, “What does she

want?” the older daughter Zoe pointed to a small book on the floorboard of the car. It was piled with other books next to what appeared to be an apple-juice stain on the vinyl floor mat. I looked down at the dull pink book and squinted to see the title. It read, “The Princess and the Pea.”

My anger was silenced. I handed the book to Jacquie and she got in her seat quietly and showed great signs of content. It was a simple equation I had missed. In her world, pea means pee and pee is tinkle. This book title involved two of their three favorite things to talk about – princesses and tinkle.

Clarity and understanding are critical con-cepts. Wars, divorces, and fights of all kinds have started with misunderstandings and lack of clarity. Clarity is the single greatest asset in the fight against fighting. Without understanding, emotions take over. People get frustrated, saying and doing things that don’t exhibit mutual pur-pose and respect.

COmmEntaRY by gary hubbard

If an email account has been hacked, is it advisable to delete the old account to keep it from continuing to be used, or is it too late?

There is much confusion about what many perceive as having their email account “hacked.”

When I hear that term in that context, I envision an email ac-count that has been taken over by a third party and the rightful owner has been locked out.

If a “hacker” wants to gain access to your email account, it’s for nefarious purposes and if they don’t lock you out, you can easily lock them out once you realize something funny is going on (being locked out is standard operating procedure in “hacking” an account).

If you have been locked out, you can’t shut down the account until you regain control of it, and depending upon which e-mail service you are using, doing so can be fairly easy to impossible.

If you are part of a corporate mail system or a national Internet service provider, contact the tech support departments to work through the process of regaining control of the account.

If you are using a free-mail system like Yahoo! Mail and Gmail, they require you when you originally set up the account to desig-nate a “primary” email address (usually on another system) in case you forget or need to reset your password.

If you can’t use this method to regain access, then the “hacker” has already changed the primary e-mail address (the one that allows you to reset) to something they control, so you’ll need to report it to the mail service provider.

If you still have access to the account but think someone else may have the password and is using the account to send unau-thorized messages, you need only to look in the “sent” folder to see if any messages that were sent aren’t familiar.

If you see anything along those lines, make sure to change the password immediately so they can’t continue to access the account.

A more common scenario that causes many to proclaim that their email address has been “hacked” is actually the simple tactic of “spoofing” the return address on messages. It’s the same lack of control with standard postal service mail; anyone can jot down any address as the “sender” without any way to verify if it’s true and drop the mail into any mailbox.

Email spoofing is a common tactic with spammers because you are more likely to open a message from an email account that you recognize.

Most Internet Service Providers and spam detection systems employ a process that tries to validate the senders address via the “header” tucked inside of every message, but it’s pretty easy to fool these filters into thinking the message is righteous.

If you think about it, you get e-mail every day that has a

spoofed senders address (most phishing scams and spam use spoofed ‘From:’ addresses).

Even if you switch to another email address, it’s just a matter of time before the new address starts getting used in spoofing scams, so I wouldn’t get too carried away with switching email accounts if this is what is happening to you.

Understanding the difference between having your email ac-count compromised and having it spoofed is critical.

If, in fact, your email account has been compromised (even for short period of time) your identity may be at risk.

Any email account that is used in conjunction with an online banking account is the gateway to your personal identity (think about where the reset instructions are sent when you tell your online bank that your forgot your password). If you suspect someone has gained access to an account that you use for banking purposes, be sure to also change the passcodes and review your “challenge” questions to play it safe!

» Your Internet history may be tracked – Dozens of Web sites have been secretly harvesting lists of places that their users previously visited online, everything from news articles to bank sites to pornography. The information is valuable for con artists to learn more about their targets and send them personalized attacks. It also allows e-commerce companies to adjust ads or prices — for instance, if the site knows you've just come from a competitor that is offering a lower price. Current versions of the Firefox and Internet Explorer browsers still allow this, as do older ver-sions of Chrome and Safari.

» facebook to undergo facelift – Facebook is redesigning the profile pages of its 500 million-plus users to make it more of a reflection of their real lives and emphasize one of the site's most popular features, photos. The changes are meant to make it easier for users to tell their story. A new biography section includes a set of the most recent photos that your friends have "tagged" you in. Previously users had to click on a tab to see the latest photos on a profile. Users also can feature important friends in their profile, while previously only random selection appeared.

RElatIOnShIPSby Rachel noble

For those of you who have ever dated online, have you ever noticed that many profiles start out saying, “If you’ve got baggage, you’re a head case, you’re full of drama, you’re psycho, etc., I’m not interested!”?

I have to say, I’m immediately turned off when I read this. I get the feeling these days that many people are single because they’re looking for extreme perfection. The ironic thing is that any time I’ve dated someone whose profile starts out like this, it turns out they all seem to have the same personality: selfish, egotistical, a bit sociopathic and only interested in talking about themselves and how much they can’t stand their exes (hmmm … I wonder what they may have done to turn their ex “psycho”).

Let me tell you, singles out there – every-body’s got a story to tell. In other words, EV-ERY individual out there has experienced pain, “drama,” emotion and heartache – especially the older we get and the more experiences we’ve had. However, not every person who has expe-rienced these things is unhealthy. Many of us have learned from our trials and tribulations and have come out stronger and healthier than ever.

When you’re in the pursuit for love, don’t expect perfection. For instance, don’t look for a

guy who has had only less than five relationships in his lifetime and who never has a bad day ever, etc. First of all, this needle in the haystack is going to be impossible to find, and by being so narrow-minded, you’re probably going to end up forever single. Plus, don’t forget the fact that you’re not exactly the epitome of perfection yourself.

I remember in my younger, more selfish years of dating. I would only date dark-headed men who were of a certain height. I wonder how many wonderful men I turned away just because they didn’t fit my perfect criteria. And who was I to think I was such a catch?

When you’re out looking for your soul mate, take a moment to reflect on the lasting and positive things you ARE looking for, rather than all the things you DON’T want. For instance, instead of saying you won’t date anyone whose parents are divorced, instead, look for someone who values marriage and believes in commit-ment. You just might find that you’ll be sur-prised by what really mattered in the long run.

Are you looking for perfection?

SPIRItUalItYby bob Walters

I once visited a local church to hear an inter-nationally known Christian minister and author preach at an evening worship service.

Shockingly, this visiting purveyor of the lov-ing Gospel of Jesus Christ and the Holy Word of the Bible stopped speaking midway in his sermon and in mid-sentence demanded that a young mother – at whom he actually stretched out his arm and pointed – remove both herself and her somewhat-crying baby from the room.

The child was distracting him, he said. “Sorry,” he said. “That’s my fault,” he said. “I couldn’t concentrate.”

Nothing else the famous preacher said was as memorable as that. Most likely the humiliated young mother hasn’t forgotten the rebuke, ei-ther. As she retreated from the room holding her baby, my momentary relief at the silence turned to shame at my own impatience. My sympathies grew toward the mother, and away from the famous preacher’s broken concentration.

I thought of another young mother, a couple thousand years ago, who also had to hide a real, live human baby – Jesus – from earthly author-ity and social convention. Mary, with God’s grace, was patient with her circumstances.

I have narcissistic tendencies, which make me not naturally patient. When we love ourselves

too much, one finds, we have difficulty loving the world amid the world’s inconveniences.

Christmas too often is an exercise in impa-tience. One might rightly notice that the first victim of impatience is joy. Perhaps “Joy to the World” ought to be understood to mean, “Be patient with the world.”

God is. Christ is. The Holy Spirit is. Patient, I mean. Sinful man usually is not.

Try this as an antidote. Next time you’re inconvenienced, pray for the person that is inconveniencing you. That would include each person in line ahead of you. Or the relative whose Christmas plans conflict with yours. Or the baby crying in church.

As our Pastor Derek Duncan once advised, let a crying baby remind you of the one in the manger whose birth we celebrate at Christmas.

Christ came to reconnect mankind’s loving relationship with God, and to build our human communion with the Holy Trinity and with each other. Crowds at Christmas are an awe-some time to do that, but to find Christ amid the chaos, you have to be patient.

Bob Walters (www.believerbob.blogspot.com, email [email protected]) doesn’t mind a baby’s cry in church as much as … alas … he minds its parents’ deafness.

COMMENTARYBy Larry Greene

ORIGINAL ROOM: This home in the Lakeside Park subdivi-sion on the west side of Carmel was built about five years ago and included the original family room. The family room included a simple fireplace with wood mantel but did not include any storage cabinets or shelving. The homeowner had a standalone piece of furniture for the TV. The room seemed large and empty and was missing any storage. The goal of this project was to design a wall of built-in shelving and cabinets to house games and toys and the TV.

ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN: The project architect presented several design schemes to the homeowner. The final design in-cluded flanking cabinets on each side of the fireplace and a center addition above the fireplace. All wood for the built-in cabinets was maple and poplar.

INTERIOR FINISH DETAILS: The new built-ins included the following:• Materials: The cabinets were constructed using poplar trim

and maple plywood material including face frames with cen-ter stile and one adjustable shelf for each base cabinet.

• Shelves: Each base cabinet included new maple adjustable shelving.

• Doors: New maple full overlay doors with raised square pan-els and concealed hinges.

• Center Built-In: The center section included panel mold-ing over drywall which was painted to match the trim. This

area included new two piece crown stack and fluted panels and a new mantel.

• Painting: All new ma-terial was primed and spray painted with two coats of paint.

• Hardware: New satin nickel cabinet door hardware was installed.

• Carpet: The existing carpet was cut and restretched to fit against the new cabinets.

MISC ELECTRICAL WORK: • TV Electrical Work: Electrical receptacles and cable jacks

were relocated for placement of the new flat screen TV.• New electrical receptacles were installed in the base cabinets.UPGRADE TO GRANITE COUNTERTOPS:• Finally the new base cabinets were topped with a new 3cm

granite top with a half bull nose edge.

I’m sure we all saw the story about the two Oklahoma women who were caught shoplift-ing by stashing the (allegedly) stolen goods in their skin folds.

And I’m sure I speak for many of us when I say:

Eeeeuw.Just … eeeeuw.Here’s part of the wire service account:“Ailene Brown, 28, and Shmeco Thomas,

37, (were arrested) on suspicion of shoplifting after the pair allegedly stuffed $2,600 worth of footwear, denim and accessories under rolls of fat on their stomachs and beneath their breasts.

“These two individuals were actually con-cealing them in areas of their body where excess skin was, underneath their chest area and up around their armpits,” Edmond Police Officer James Hamm told KFOR.com.

Once again, all together now: Eeeeuw.Here’s what really got me: Part of the haul

included boots. Boots. Four pair.How deep does a body crevice have to be to

hold one pair of boots, let alone multiples? Don’t answer. I don’t want to know.Now, I don’t want you thinking I am pick-

ing on Ms. Brown and Ms. Thomas. Well, I am, but not for being … um, how to put this politely? I know. Ginormous. Heck, accord-ing to the Centers for Disease Control, 34 percent of US adults were considered obese in 2007-2008.

(In Indiana, the level is estimated at 29.5 percent of the population. Oklahoma, where the alleged Plus-Size Perpetrators were caught by the long, skinny arm of the law, weighed in at 31.4 percent. The Big Kahuna, as it were, is Mississippi, which led the charge at a full-figured 34 percent.)

Now that is statistical obesity, often quoted by doctors and insurance companies. I’m sure you’ve seen the height/weight charts at your

doctor’s office. They usually post them right next to the scales. They’re real comedians, those doctors. Especially since the charts show that any adult human who weighs more than 135 pounds is Fat Albert.

Actually, my former primary care come-dian, Dr. Shecky, used to tell me that I wasn’t overweight at all. In fact, I was the perfect weight. The problem was my height. I was 4 feet undertall.

But back to Oklahoma. As I said, I’m not making fun of these women for being large. I’m making fun of them for being stupid. And, let’s be honest, kind of gross. Boots and denim? You can’t exactly fold a pair of jeans down into a small, concealable package. Well, maybe baby overalls or something. But logic says if they were buying for themselves they would have some pretty deep skin folds, all right.

Of course, the plus side would be that the shoplifting possibilities are endless: bicycles, furniture, Smart Cars …

Oh, well. Time for justice to run its course. The women have been charged with felony shoplifting for their alleged crime.

(Newspaper rules require the use of the word alleged, you know, and rightfully so, although it can get a little out of hand some-times. I mean, one of these days some over-zealous newsie is going to write that the sun allegedly rose in the east this morning.)

But in the case of the Bodyfat Bandits, al-leged is correct. This could be a big mistake and they might well have been planning to pay for their selections. Although I do not want to know where they were keeping the money.

Eeeeuw.

COmmEntaRYby Dick Wolfsie

I’m proud to have written another 50 col-umns in 2010. All right, who am I kidding? I’m only proud of about half of them. For those I have been kidding all year, here’s a thank you for all the story ideas. I do repeat a few of my own jokes here, but if Letterman can do it, that’s good enough for me. So, thanks ...

... to the people who make the Miracle Neck Slimmer, a device only available on TV, because it’s for television watchers who spend their lives on the couch mulling over their imperfect bod-ies. You place the apparatus under your jaw and then bob your head up and down like a turkey in heat. Last I checked, the company was still in business, but sales were down and the owner had angered his primary investor with the insuf-ferable refrain to “keep his chins up.”

... to the Swedish medical team that discov-ered the newest virus to hit the computer world: erythema ab igne. It’s not really a virus; it’s a rash caused by the heat of your laptop when you leave the device on your thighs too long. The more common name is Toasted Leg Syndrome, but one sandwich chain asked the docs if they could find another term because it sounded too much like Toasted Egg Surprise, which was Subway’s new breakfast offering that already had such bad reviews, even Jared wouldn’t eat it.

... to the fine folks who publish the Zoo Book (now the Discover Book). The Wolfsies contem-plated using every coupon offered, an estimated savings of $14,450 in just one year. All we had to do was go duckpin bowling, canoeing and ballroom dancing, then play six games of laser tag and four games of miniature golf, followed by six sliders at White Castle and four burritos at Taco Bell. That would pretty much kill most of Monday. We decided not to try. Mary El-len and I wanted to save money, but we just couldn’t afford it.

... to Chris Voigt, executive director of the Washington State Potato Commission, who spent 60 days on an all-spud diet to bring atten-tion to the culinary and nutritional benefits

of this underrated food staple. Chris com-pleted his potato marathon the night before Thanksgiving, so that on Turkey Day he could

savor the drumstick, enjoy his wife’s green bean casserole and devour his sister’s pumpkin pie. He skipped the yams.

And talking about food, thanks to the physi-cian on Facebook who posted photos of every-thing he ate for one year. All his meals, snacks and late-night refrigerator raids were included. As I reported before, I’ve been uploading meals and then downloading them onto my dress shirts for most of my life. Been there, dripped that.

... to the Dentyne gum research division that determined the average person spends 20,000 minutes in his or her lifetime kissing. (We can be thankful that a similar study was not done by the makers of GasX.) I don’t want to brag, but between my years as a swingin’ bachelor and my long and happy marriage, I believe I have surpassed the smooching median. Of course, having been in television for 30 years, I’m also counting all the kissing up.

... to the Google search engine for helping me find information on how to stop my dog from snor-ing. I tried the nasal strips, but sticking one of those on a Beagle’s nose is like trying to keep a bandage on a peeled banana. They suggested a nice foam rubber pillow to prop up his head, thus opening his nasal airway. Toby loved the pillow. Every bite of it.

... to Dr. Hess Udder Ointment, a concoc-tion created over 100 years ago that makes your hands smooth and feet callus-free. Dr. Hess was rubbing his cream on the cows’ semi-privates to make them supple and discovered that the emollient was actually a better moisturizer for humans than animals. So much for Bessie and her herd. Cows have had bad luck over the cen-turies. They started out as pets, and then some-one accidentally ate one.

... to the woman from Idaho arrested for more than a dozen condiment-related crimes. Not only did she pour mayo down the public library’s book shoot, but she shmeared tartar sauce over her neighbor’s Kindle. Her husband stuck by her. “She’s still my main squeeze,” he said.”

Feed the “good guy” bacteria in your dog’s gut to help him get the most out of his food.

Adding supplemental Lactobacillus acidophi-lus, Bifidobacteruim bifidum, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, or other probiotic organisms to your dog’s diet is almost always a good idea.

This will support the resident micro flora that are always present in your dog’s gut, enhancing digestion and adsorption of nutrients, support-ing detoxification and elimination processes, and helping to boost his immune system.

The digestive system is the largest immune organ in the body; roughly 70 percent of the body’s immune cells, entrecotes, goblet cells and other immune waters reside in the mucosal lin-ings of the intestinal tract.

Probiotics work in concert with these im-mune warriors by producing special enzymes and other chemicals that support immune func-tions at many levels. Probiotics will also help

keep populations of “bad guys” pathogens, like Salmonella spp and Escherichia coli, in check.

One of the fundamental rules of holistic pet care is to always remember that no two animals are alike. Your dog may look and behave like others, but his (or her) inner nature is different from any other dog.

What you can do:• Give your dog a probiotic supplement

that offers a variety of strains of beneficial bacteria.

• Nourish those good guy bacteria with a probiotic supplement.

• Monitor your dog’s weight, the condition of his coat, his energy level, and the qual-ity of his daily stool for signs that his diet needs to be adjusted in some way. What works well for some dogs may not benefit another dog in other circumstances.

In praise of probiotics

Hombre is a seven-year-old male brown Shepherd/Lab/Terrier mix. Hombre is a very sweet and loving boy who loves going for walks and rolling around in the grass (when it’s not snow-ing). He is well mannered and good with people of all ages. He also likes doggie biscuits and is willing to learn a few new tricks in order to get one. Hombre is pretty low mainte-nance and really just wants a family who will give him a comfy bed to nap on, a belly rub a few times a week and a loving forever home.

Monroe is a six-month-old male tabby with white DSH. Monroe is an outgoing guy who isn’t shy about letting other cats know that he’s in charge despite his young age. He has developed a nickname to describe him – spunky – and he is very playful and just loves to have fun. He has been neutered and is litter box trained and is currently staying at a local business in hopes of someone seeing him while shopping! Monroe would do well in a home with children of any age.

» Puppy pads can confuse – Owners should be cautious about not turning to puppy pads as a crutch, preventing their dogs from fully becoming housebroken, Pamela Reid, vice president of the ASPCA’ s Animal Behavior Center, told ZooToo. Puppy pads can ultimately confuse dogs, especially young dogs still learning, and make them think that relieving them-selves inside the house is okay. If owners decide to train their puppy with puppy pads, they should try to begin weaning their puppies off the pads as soon as pos-sible, at the latest around four, five or six months of age.

» Wolf and grizzly protections to be lifted? – The Obama administration is seeking to lift Endangered Spe-cies Act protections from two of the most iconic symbols of the American West, the gray wolf and grizzly bear, which have exceeded their respective population recovery goals. Environmen-talists have raised concerns that while both species have made a comeback under protection as endangered species, their recovery could falter if they were de-listed, a move that would likely open the animals to public hunting.
