The Citizen’s Academy is an 11-week program for Westfield residents to receive firsthand expe-
rience in various aspects of police work. The class meets once a week in the evenings. Participants will
tour the county jail, dispatch and training center and learn about patrol and investigation opera-tions. They also will get to participate in evidence processing, emergency driving, patrol stops, firearms training, defense tactics, taser and K9 demonstrations, and active shooter simulations.
“It helps us explain what we are about. They truly understand the type of stress, pressure and split decisions we have to make,” WPD Of-ficer Song Kang said. “What it is to be a police officer in general.”
To participate in the spring 2014 Citizen’s
Academy, those interested must fill out an appli-cation before April 11 and pass a background test. Space is limited. Any applications submitted after the deadline will be held for the next session. The spring academy meets at 6:30 p.m. Thursday from April 17 to July 3. There is no cost to partici-pate but residents must be 21 or older with no criminal history.
“There’s no other environment to ask ques-tions. It’s very open and raw,” Lt. Mike Seagrave, academy coordinator, said. “We want to build that relationship with the community. At the end of it, hopefully we’ll have 18 friends of the depart-ment and gained another eye on the street.”
Applications are available at www.westfield.in.gov/eGov/apps/services/index.egov?view=detail;id=126. For more information, call 804-3200.
Members of the fall 2013 Citizens’ Academy celebrate their graduation at the end of November. Applica-tions are now being accepted for the spring 2014 academy. (Submitted photo)

Although originally planned to open in April, demand for tournament dates
at Grand Park has resulted in two college showcases
to be scheduled in March. Each will be hosted by the Westfield Youth Soccer Association.
The Westfield Select Soccer Show-cases are the first soccer tournament dates to be played at Grand Park Sports Campus announced by the City of West-field. The senior teams of the Westfield Select Soccer Club, the competitive travel league of WYSA, will have the opportunity to play in front of college coaches from across the country.
The Boys Showcase will be held March 14 through 16 and the Girls Showcase is scheduled for March 21 through 23. The club expects more than 50 teams to play in front of approximately 40 college coaches during the event.
“College showcases often result in college scholarships for qualified youth soccer players. By hosting our boys and girls college showcases at our new Grand Park home, we are able to give our players an opportunity to be evaluated in a state-of-the-art facility. Furthermore, events such as these will continue to establish the city

Showcases to open campus
of Westfield as the Amateur Sports Capital of the country,” said WYSA President Mark Anderson.
WYSA has been working closely with the Indiana Soccer Association on tournaments and scheduling practices, travel games and recreation games for its roster of more than 2,000 local athletes. Additional tournaments will be announced as bids are awarded and event schedules are finalized.

Maternity services at hospitals are much more catered toward patients now. That’s why St.Vincent Carmel now offers Monogram Maternity, a program that lets new moms design the birthing experience they want.
Some people have very detailed birth plans about what they want—and do not want—at the time of delivery: “I don’t want an epidural”; “I’d like it to be quiet”; “I’d like to hold the baby right away.” And then there are some people who show up and say, “My plan is to go with the fl ow.”
Regardless of what kind of birthing experience our patients prefer, Monogram Maternity at St.Vincent gives them the opportunity to discuss their plans and talk about what is safe, and how our hospital can accommodate the things they want.
Monogram Maternity gives our patients a lot of opportunities for education throughout their pregnancy and exposure to some services they may not know about otherwise. We offer classes regarding pregnancy, an explanation of different birthing options, what happens at labor and delivery, as well as all the things that you may not plan for. We also provide newborn care classes, classes to help with breast-feeding and other classes designed just for new dads.
For most people, pregnancy and delivery can be uncomplicated, but things can change very quickly. At St.Vincent Carmel Hospital, there is a neonatology physician in the hospital at all times.
There is an anesthesiologist dedicated to labor and delivery at all times. And there is always an in-house obstetrician. So if an urgent situation arises in the middle of the night and you need to deliver a baby immediately—even a 32-week baby—you have everybody that you need in the hospital to make it happen, which is not the situation everywhere.
Also, we have private suites in our Level III NICU (neonatal intensive care unit), should any complications arise after delivery. These private NICU suites provide a very comfortable, personal space for moms and dads to be with their babies. Of course, our newborns are always under the watchful eyes of several trained nurses, nurse practitioners and respiratory therapists, as well as the NICU staff neonatologist who is always in the hospital.
We always have to remember that it’s not just one patient; it’s two patients we have to take care of. So our goal is to have, at the end of the day, a healthy mom and a healthy baby. And at St.Vincent Carmel Hospital, we have everybody that we need to make those two things happen.
The offi ce of Dr. Beth Cottongim is conveniently located in Westfi eld at 218 West 161st Street, Suite B. To schedule a free get-acquainted visit, call 317-415-6420. And, to learn more about our program, visit MonogramMaternity.com

Work continues on the new study rooms at the Westfield Washington Public Library. – Work continues at the Westfield Washington Public Library. The new study rooms have been constructed in the Infor-mation/Reference Dept. and two new offices were carved out of the old staff break room. The drywall is finished and will be painted before the new carpeting is laid. New shelving was constructed so the library could move books from the area near the bay window, as it is next on the list for new wall treatments and flooring. In late October, the power was turned off throughout the building for one day so that new electrical wiring could be installed. Library officials said the project is on schedule and the grand reopening is scheduled for early March. (Submitted photo)

Travis Stetnish, Brad Prater and Josh Pickett from the City of Westfield public works dept. provide tornado relief assistance to Kokomo. (Submitted photo)
Kokomo trip an eye-opener
COMMENTArY
Commentary by Travis Stetnish
It was splashed across the news. Dozens of tornadoes twisted their way through Indiana and
Kokomo was a target. As the images of the damage done in Kokomo scrolled
across my TV screen I felt something had to be done and I wanted to reach out in some way. So when Public Works Director Ken Alexander asked if I would help there was no hesitation.
My team consisted of two other employees from the street division – Brad Prater and Josh Pickett. Brad and I left early Tuesday morning each driving a City of Westfield dump truck. Josh went a little later that day with a Westfield back hoe that was hauled to Kokomo by Harvey Construction (they were nice enough to donate their time).
Once we got to Kokomo we were put to work. A tornado plowed through one neighborhood and part of that devastation was a home pushed onto a busy thoroughfare. Soon after, Kokomo crews pushed the debris out of traffic, but there was a lot of clean up left to do.
As my team hauled what was left of the house to a dump, the homeowner was trying to sift through her belongings. Volunteers helped as they searched for a wedding ring, priceless jewelry and even two loaded pistols.
Although her home was destroyed, her life strewn across 500 yards for strangers to pick
up, the woman spray painted on a mattress in front of what was left of her home “God is Good.” It’s something I will never forget.
While my crew worked three solid days in Kokomo on just one home, it wasn’t enough. The images I saw in person were far more heart-wrenching than what I saw across my TV screen that fateful afternoon. I just hope if I’m ever in a similar situation I can have as much courage and faith as the woman I met had.

Girl Scouts from Troop 00959 in Hamilton County recently earned the Super Troop award from Girl Scouts of Central Indiana. The girls participated in several Girl Scout events and activities, including helping to increase girl and adult membership in Girl Scouts. The troop participated in Early Bird by having 80 percent of its troop registered by Oct. 1, 2012. They also participated in several council pro-grams including the cookie program and completed a Take Action Project. For their project, the girls created a bulletin board in the computer room at Oak Trace Elementary School for all the kids to see. They then listed the Top 10 ways each student could help conserve water. Each tip was listed on a “wa-ter droplet.” For more information, visit www.girlscoutsindiana.org.

school): Beech Grove High School; bachelor’s in elementary education and special education, Car-thage College, Kenosha, Wis.; and master’s in educa-tion, Indiana Wesleyan University.
Why did you become a teacher? I became a teacher because I’ve always enjoyed children. My mom was a childcare provider and I began babysit-ting at a young age. I loved the idea of spending time with children and impacting their young lives.
What goals do you have for your students? The goal for my students each year is to acquire a love of learning. At the same time, it is important for each student to grow academically and master third grade curriculum while having fun. I try to develop a learning community where students feel comfortable sharing and attain the desire to dig deeper into concepts being taught.
What do you encourage parents to do at home to help their children strengthen particular skills? I would en-courage parents to get involved by asking their children what they learn on a daily basis. Help children get organized at an early age and develop pride in all the work they do. Parents should guide their children without doing the work for them. This fosters student independence and confidence in their own abilities. Reading and practicing basic math facts often throughout the week is also very helpful to all third graders.
What is your favorite movie? Because of Winn-Dixie
Who is your favorite musician or band? Third Day
What’s something your students might not know about you? I was a gymnast when I was young and loved doing back handsprings across my entire backyard.

Back in the Day Kansas “Kemp” Burroughs stands in front of K Burroughs Lunch Room. The lunchroom was downstairs, and stairs on the side of the lower floor went upstairs. The picture was taken in the early 1930’s – probably in the fall as leaves are visible on the road and tree – as the road was still unpaved. The store was at Main Street, which used to be Cross/Noblesville-Lebanon Street), just east of the intersection with old U.S. 31 (now Union Street) on the south side.

Sheriff Mark Bowen and members of the Ham-ilton County Sheriff’s Office recently attended
an awards banquet in Winston-Salem, N.C., to receive their award from
the Commission of Accreditation for Law Enforce-ment Agencies, Inc. CALEA is an international organization that recognizes outstanding achieve-ment in law enforcement agencies. The CALEA accreditation award is for three years, and the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office is now required to maintain continuous compliance during the award period by submitting annual reports attesting to
the compliance with the standards under which it was accredited. This is the second accreditation award for the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office.
To earn accreditation, agency employees had to comply with 188 standards. A team of as-sessors from CALEA visited Hamilton County in August to examine policies and procedures, man-agement, operation and support services.
“The accreditation process allows the mem-bers of the agency, as well as the members of the community, to be confident that the policies and procedures that guide the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office are based on current, effective, and equitable best practices in policing,” Bowen stated.

$1.6M awarded for Noblesville paving – INDOT has awarded two paving contracts for sections of Ind. 32, 37 and 38 in Hamilton County. Calumet Civil Contractors will resurface more than two miles of Ind. 32/38 between Hague and Union Chapel roads. The $775,000 contract includes reconstructing the railroad cross-ing at the intersection of Ind. 32/38 and Eighth Street in downtown Noblesville, which requires closure of both roadways. The closure is anticipated to take place between March 29 and April 13. During the closure, state highway traffic will be detoured to U.S. 31, I-465, I-69 and Ind. 37. Eighth Street will have a local de-tour that follows Cherry, 10th and Logan streets. A separate contract calls for E & B Paving to resurface more than four miles of Ind. 37 between Allisonville Road and Ind. 213. A work schedule for the $840,000 contract is yet to be established. Both projects are expected to be completed by September.

Midwest Mortgage Capital is opening in Car-mel and wants the community to know they are
a different type of home loan company.
The St. Louis-based mortgage company was founded in 2001 by managing partner George DeMare. He started Midwest Mortgage 13 years ago. After being in the business 20 years, he didn’t feel that people were doing their jobs correctly.
“The industry wasn’t trusted, and we wanted to educate and teach people,” DeMare said. “There are a million things that go into a mort-gage, but your crediting rate is the most impor-tant thing. One of my big missions I’m on right now is all about credit scores.”
DeMare speaks about credit scores nationally. “Everybody thinks your credit score is only
for an interest rate for mortgages, but it’s for so much more; car loans, every type of insurance pulls your credit rating, and I just read that 90 percent of employers are pulling credit scores for hiring,” he said.
Because of his passion of educating and

teaching customers, Midwest Mortgage is fo-cused on bringing better customer service, phi-lanthropy and accountability to an industry that has been “badly tarnished.”
“I want people to say ‘wow this com-pany changed my life and taught me to increase my credit rate, showed me better loans, which helped me get lower premiums on insurance,’” DeMare said.
Midwest Mortgage chose Carmel for its Midwestern values and the string area housing market.
“The housing and job markets are much better here and recovering and we wanted to expand in the areas where we can help educated people and work from the good core Midwestern values. And we found all this in our company leader there, Eric Covington,” DeMare said. “Eric has the same core values and commu-nity leadership we stand for at MCC.”
Midwest Mortgage has 70 employees nation-wide and two in the Carmel-Indianapolis area offices located at 160 W. Carmel, Dr., Suite 263.
The company has funded more than $5 billion in home loans since 2001.

It’s not often that you hear a high-school-aged girl say they’re not afraid of being elbowed in
the face.“I got hit pretty hard last night
and I was good,” said Carmel High School junior girls basketball player Carrie Larson.
Players on the team have gained a new sense of security and confidence playing physical games thanks to new custom mouthguards de-veloped right here in Carmel, said girls basketball assistant coach Joe Stuelpe.
Kristoff and Hanson Family Dentistry entered into a sponsorship agreement with the CHS athletics department in October. The sponsorship allowed the practice the opportunity to speak at desired athletic parent-coach preseason meet-ings regarding mouthguards.
Kristoff and Hanson Marketing Director Lori Thomas said, “(The company) felt this was a great opportunity for our doctors to let our com-munity know the importance of athletes having access to high-quality mouthguards that our office can provide.”
With the support of CHS athletic director Jim Inskeep, the company set out to create a pro-gram to present to CHS athletes.
The dentistry practice is unique in that it can fabricate the custom multiple-layered mouth-guards right in its office, Thomas said. This mouthguards can be modified for full-contact sports using layering to achieve a defined end result under a high-heat pressure environment.

achieved using the low-heat and vacuum meth-ods which most dental practices offer, Thomas said.
She said that dentists that specialize in ath-lete care highly recommend the custom-made mouthguards for the very best protection, as well as concussion deterrence.
“The Colts football team uses the same mouthguards that we produce,” Thomas said. “This illustrates a fine example of the quality of the product.”
“We can offer a lower cost for the CHS ath-letes, since our practice has the capability to fabricate the mouthguard in house,” she said.
And the girls on the CHS basketball team also liked that Kristoff and Hanson came out to the high school to do everything, Stuelpe said. It was very convenient to get fitted at the high school and to then have the mouth guards delivered here.

A change in the age requirement to be a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-Day Saints has led to an increase in young people choos-ing to go on mission trips.
The required age dropped from 19 to 18 for men and from 21 to 19 for women in April and went into effect in October.
“Over the last few months we have started to see a tsunami of new, younger missionaries as they started to come into the field,” said Marc Fisher, a spokesman for the church.
More than 80,000 missionaries serve missions at any one time, with most under the age of 25. That’s up from 58,500 in September 2012.
Missions fall into two categories, Fisher said.“Most of the younger missionaries are prosely-
tizing – knocking on doors and teaching friends and family,” he said. “The service trips usually fall more into experienced missionaries who are couples and retired.”
Fisher was 19 when he served his mission in Los Angeles.
“The process is really fascinating on deciding where they go. One of the apostles – there are 12 – is assigned to review applications. Based on several different factors such as where someone might be needed or need to go for their personal growth, the apostle makes the determination,” Fisher said. “(Missionaries) have no say in where
More missionaries able to serve
rElIgION
they’ll go. They simply say ‘I am willing and ready.’ They must also demonstrate they’re fi-nancially ready as the church doesn’t pay for the missions – they do that on their own.”
The opportunity to go on a mission at a younger age is a blessing, Fisher said.
“There are a lot of other opportunities that come into life that might make a mission not as important at that time or feasible,” he said. “To have this chance earlier in life to grow and learn away from home, sometimes before they even go to college, is just a great experience for them to have before they fully go out into the world.”
Fisher’s daughter, Avanlee, 16, is a sophomore at Carmel High School. She said the age change provides a “greater opportunity to serve.”
“The wait until age 21 for young women was difficult because it made it hard to plan for the mission. I knew it was possible I would get mar-ried or want to finish college and not be able to go on a mission,” she said. “Now it is more sure, and I can get out right away and serve the Lord.”

Tradition is defined as a long-established or inherited way of thinking or acting. The Westfield High School football
team finished up the best season in school history on Nov. 29 in the Class 5A state championship game at Lucas
Oil Stadium. Although they lost to Cathedral 42-18 to finish 12-2 on the season, the Shamrocks hope that a greater good was established: a winning football tradition.
Westfield’s surrounded with neighboring communities that have such tradition. Look at Sheridan to the west, Car-mel to the south, Fishers and Hamilton Southeastern to the east, and Hamilton Heights to the north. Each possesses a tremendous football tradition. Was this the year the Rocks finally turned the corner?
“After being here for so many years and being the small-est school in the conference, not having many winning sea-sons, it’s just fun to win,” said WHS Principal Stacy McGuire. “I’m a Westfield High School graduate, my father is and my grandmother is, so our family’s been around for a long time. I just feel like what this championship run has done is bring a sense of pride to this school, but I also feel like it has united the community.”
Mayor Andy Cook echoed those sentiments and added that he thinks the winning is here to stay.
“This administration has really focused on building a sense of community because there really wasn’t much of that six, eight years ago. Experiences like this state game, seeing such a huge crowd, it does a whole lot for the city,” Cook said. “I think with Coach (Jake) Gilbert, and his philoso-phies, they’re going to be back there next year. And their
run to the top is not going to be an overnight sensation. And that’s what we want to see. We want to see a sus-tained scholastic and athletic quality!”
Cook and Westfield want a tradition. And it seems the ’Rocks are heading in the right direction. Gilbert led this team to a state runner-up finish in only his third season and thanked his predecessors, including former coach Bo Belden, for laying the foundation for the program. Upon ar-riving at Westfield, Gilbert felt the ’Rocks really didn’t know how to win. He has worked hard to change that culture and to create an expectation of winning, which is why this year’s success is such an important step.
“We just needed time to improve physically to compete on this schedule. Our strength and speed caught up and so did our resolve and confidence,” he said. “I am just so proud of our kids and of Westfield in general. I love this team and I’m honored to coach these kids and to live in Westfield.”
2013 5A state runner-up Westfield Shamrocks – that’s an incredible achievement. But will the ’Rocks be able to main-tain success like Cook believes, and so many fans want? WHS senior captain Zane Burtron thinks so.
“I believe the program is in great shape for the future. Coach Gilbert does a great job of making leaders and I believe that there is a lot of talent at every level of our program. I am excited to see what these future teams are made of,” he said.
“I’m excited for our future,” Gilbert said. “We graduate a lot (of players), especially on defense, but we have some outstanding players returning and some great young play-ers as well. The question will be, ‘Who will step up and carry the torch?’”
Westfield will just have to wait and see.

one entity managed all communication. Could we lose TV, the Internet and phone all at the same mo-ment and without warning or hope of recourse? Without the duplicate and competitive cell phone company with whom we maintained an account, would we have been isolated?
Can the benefits imagined in a single point of contact for all essential services ever fully out-weigh the risk in the event of failure (intended or not)? Does a single payer, single provider system work to increase our freedoms or restrict them? Somehow, monopolies, even benevolent govern-ment-sponsored ones, raise suspicion. In a world where our own mighty federal apparatus cannot create a working Website, are we foolish to even contemplate such consolidation?

Our ordinarily rock-solid electrical power sup-ply has been interrupted several times these past many weeks. While we’ve experienced a long run with only the most brief flickers in the grid – the kind that requires that you reset the microwave clock but not persistent enough to go find and light a candle for illumination. But re-cently, we’ve encountered unexpected darkness for hours at a time. While it is fun to camp, I find that I miss the light (heat and internet, too).
Recently, the cable for television and internet access failed. For what seemed like an eternity, we were off the World Wide Web! What could be happening that we’d miss? But it did remind us of our dependency on these centrally provided essen-tials. That night, our calls to Bright House would be answered by an automated attendant, and after a lengthy phone tree laden with questions about our account and language proficiency, the provider’s computer would promptly cut the call leaving us to start the process over. I imagined a world where

We love good news, especially when it concerns a cause Current in Westfield sup-ports. In this case, we’re talking about the Westfield Youth Assistance Program, something of a trailblazer in that category in Hamilton County. Santa Claus, this time in the form of HomeGoods, brought an early Christmas pres-ent to the program by way of a $5,000 award. The Youth Assistance Program will use the donation to continue its success in helping youth get the support and resources it needs to become successful citizens of this county. The money will go toward the not-for-profit organi-zation’s mentoring program, which encourages community members to become involved in the betterment of the lives of youth of Westfield. According to the city, Mayor Andy Cook, who has led the cause locally, is appreciative. “The Youth Assistance Program has made a differ-ence in so many children’s lives, and companies like HomeGoods are the reason why we can continue to help kids in need,” Cook stated. “We are so grateful that such a large company believes in what the Youth Assistance Program is accomplishing here in Hamilton County.” HomeGoods, it bears noting, recently opened a Noblesville location and wanted to pay forward into the greater county community. With this gift, the seller of unique home fashions certainly has achieved that. The Youth Assistance Pro-gram since has expanded to Noblesville and will expand further into Fishers next year. That’s wonderful music to our ears.

Like many Westfield residents, I was there at Lucas Oil Stadium on Nov. 22 watching the Shamrocks take on Cathedral for the state title. While standing on the sidelines I saw the faces of the players as the final whistle blew and the dream of a first state football title ended. I write this column for them.
While the final outcome was not one any of you envisioned, Shamrocks should keep their heads held high. The tears in your eyes at the close of the game were natural. For the seniors it was their last time strapping the chinstrap and wearing the Shamrock helmet. For others it was the last time this group got to play togeth-er and they’re losing teammates and friends.
It is said it’s not the destination but the journey that matters. Anyone still saddened by the loss to Cathedral should think about that – the time you spent in two-a-days, meet-ing rooms, practicing, traveling to away games only to leave the home crowd silent, and the down time when you just hung out.
Not enough? Think of the hours of enjoyment you provided those that followed and watched this team. Also think of the legacy you left and how many children in the crowd now want to play in Indianapolis like you did. And if you thought your coaches were proud of you, just imagine how your parents brimmed with pride as your name was announced at games.
This football season has been a great one for everyone involved. I’m sure the school pep sessions and Homecoming were cool, but that can’t compare to the entire community show-ing its Shamrock pride. Westfield is always lively – and extremely entertaining – when it comes to their spirit, and your success seemed to fuel an uncontrollable fire.
Westfield went 12-2 and finished as one of the last two teams standing. Think of how many other schools covet being in that position. Think about last year and the turnaround this team made. It was due to your work, your coaches and most importantly your desire to win as a team. Your effort and ethic on and off the field makes you true champions – and that’s not a trophy that someone else will win next season.
Heads held high

Commentary by Danielle Wilson
I had the absolute pleasure of attending my twin nephews’ birthday celebration recently at a
local “fun zone” which will forever go unnamed. Normally I loathe these places … bazillions of young
children racing around quite literally like chickens with their heads cut off to the dismay of parents and caretakers alike. And they don’t even serve alcohol! This particular party was entertaining nonetheless, and it all boiled down to poo. Yes, you read correctly.
I was kind of in a bad mood heading into the evening’s festivities. Doo had abandoned me for his beloved tree stand for the second weekend in a row, and my kids had been fighting like cats the entire day. But family calls, so I downed two Advil and headed into the fray with my three tween-agers.
As expected, kids were everywhere, scream-ing, crying, laughing, falling, jumping, spinning … this place could make bank if they just sold whiskey. Two whole hours. How was I going to make it? Here’s where poo saved the day.
First I was regaled by my sister-in-law and her husband about their new puppy’s intestinal condition. Apparently she has giardia, a parasitic condition which results in extreme diarrhea at all hours. Hearing them recount a night of pure fecal horror made me laugh so hard I cried, and reminded me of our own canine catastrophe last
Watch where you stepChristmas Eve when we discovered our Labrador had utterly destroyed her kennel and the bed-room’s white carpet. Good times.
Coincidentally, one of the birthday boys also was experiencing bowel issues. On the heels of his dad whisking the potty-training cutie away after the second accident of the night, I heard my other sister-in-law scream to her crawling 1-year-old, “Don’t eat that!” We all looked up to see her snatch her son away from a perfectly cubed pieced of poo. As I went to clean it up, we noticed several other “nuggets” lying around. Ap-parently the star of the show was leaving a trail straight through the main play area, sanitation warnings be damned.
I don’t know if these establishments follow swimming pool protocol when contamination oc-curs, but we weren’t taking chances. Swiftly yet covertly, we spread out to contain the situation and eliminate all traces of corruption, struggling to keep the giggles in check. We succeeded on the first, failed on the second, and thus ended my best time ever at a play park.
You could say the poo hit the fan twice that night, but for once, I think we all welcomed it. Peace out!

Coach made men of playersr E A D E r ’ S v I E W
Editor,As the parent of a senior on the Westfield
High School football team, I wanted to publicly thank Jake Gilbert, the head coach. In his three years at Westfield, he has taken a team that at one time lacked confidence and success and transformed it into a conference champion and state 5A runner-up with expectations for great things in the future. Certainly a lot of credit goes to the players for the work they put in, but the coaching staff should be commended for their efforts as well, and Jake Gilbert is clearly the catalyst and the driver.
That-said, my strongest appreciation is that of a father, rather than of a fan. For all his qualities as a coach, manager, organizer and motivator, Jake Gilbert is also a great mentor and an incred-ible man. Those whose sons have played under Coach Gilbert have witnessed his unwavering commitment to the priorities of faith, family, school and then football. He insists the boys have their priorities in line, and he and his staff also model the same behaviors. In addition to developing the hard work, pride and confidence which are com-monplace in any sports organization, we have seen the even more important development of character, perseverance, family, faith, charity and service instilled in our young men.
I am so thankful to have had such a fine role
model and mentor for my son through his high school career. I have watched as he has grown into a fine young man, and I can see quite clear-ly the impact Jake Gilbert has made on him and on the other players as well. Westfield should consider itself blessed to have such a fine man at the helm of its football team and playing such an important role in its community.
Coach Gilbert, I know I speak for many other parents as well when I say thank you for such a great season, but even more, I thank you for helping to mold the man that my son has be-come. God Bless You for that.

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie
On Black Friday I was dealing with some severe back pain. What with the giant screen
TVs, the treadmills, and the new furniture…well, I never should have carried in all those newspaper ads
from the front porch in one trip.My wife and I have always avoided Black Fri-
day bargain hunting. We believe that shopping on Black Friday is losing popularity because it’s getting so crowded in the stores. I say let’s have Black Friday on a Monday when most people are at work. That would thin out the masses, wouldn’t it? Hello, is anyone listening to me?
The Wolfsies stayed home on this Black Fri-day, but we didn’t want to get a reputation for not taking part in any of the classic holiday ritu-als, so we found a way to feel depressed—which is another holiday tradition. It was easy to ac-complish it. All we had to do was read through the newspaper and realize how much money we had already lost on these advertised items. Not the savings we missed by not shopping on Friday, but all the moola we blew throughout the past year by being impatient.
“Mary Ellen, look at this Samsung Smart TV…65 inches: $750, including a stand and a free poin-settia, no payments for a year and free delivery. What idiots we were. We paid $950 eight months ago. Now we’re sitting in a flowerless room with a really dumb 55-inch TV and a neighbor who’s
Commentary by Mike Redmond
I don’t have all the Christmas lights up on the house yet. I know, I know, as a card-carrying
Christmas nut, I should have had it finished before Thanksgiving, but I just couldn’t after I went on the
Internet and saw this:“For every Christmas light that burns before
Thanksgiving, an elf kills a baby reindeer.”Well, I know me, and I know that if I had my
lights up before Thanksgiving, I’d have been throwing the switch on those suckers. Like I said, I’m a Christmas nut, and once they’re up, they’re burning. I put up a lot of lights. Or should I say, put up about half of a lot of lights. For the other half, the half that goes up all the way to the peak of my very tall roof, I have decided to hire a service. I’m not the ladder climber I used to be, and I decided it was worth the expense to avoid the embarrassment of a headline that reads: Homeowner croaks trying to save a couple of bucks hanging Christmas lights himself at his advanced age.
Actually, I did this last year, too, when my weight exceeded the load limit for the ladders on hand. I hired a service that came out and hung lights for a reasonable price and it worked out rather well (after I went out and corrected some of their mistakes).
See, I am a McKenzie on my mother’s side, and

still in a neck brace after helping us haul it into the house. And what about the three-piece sec-tional couch we bought in February?”
“Yes, it’s a beautiful sofa and it was a really good deal.”
“Well, here’s the same exact one, Mary Ellen, but with an extra section for the same price. And you get 12 pillows instead of eight.
“We’ve already shoved four of the pillows un-der the bed, Dick, and if that couch had another section, we’d have to store it in the basement crawlspace.”
Of all the deals we missed, the one that annoyed me the most was the Maytag 28 cu. ft. French-door refrigerator in stainless steel for $1,100, plus a $200 rebate and a nifty spray to clean smudges off the surface. “Oh my gosh, we paid more than that for a no-name two years ago,” I shrieked. “We should have waited till Black Friday Mary Ellen.”
“Waited? All the food in our old fridge was rot-ting, Dick. The meat and ice cream in the freezer were melting.”
I tried to explain this money-saving strategy to her again. But I’m dealing with a woman who has absolutely no idea the best time of the year to shop.
nobody ever does work quite as well as we can do it ourselves, or so we think. Therefore, when we do hire someone to work for us, we believe we owe it to all concerned to make sure things are done properly. Really, we McKenzies should all have tattoos that say “Born To Supervise.”
Anyway, I eventually found what sounded like a nice bunch of people willing to do the work for a good price and more to the point, get up on the ladder and go to the top of the house where I do not belong.
The important thing is that the lights go up. You see, I live in a neighborhood where about half the residents have those oh-so-tasteful minimalist Christmas displays, and the other half of us roll our eyes at them. Which is a big part of why I put up enough lights (according to my tasteful neighbors who commented online) to drag airplanes off course.
Well, fooey on them. I’m having Christmas, and that means lights. Lots of them, some of them (the low ones) put up by me, and the others personally supervised by my McKenzie self. Hey, I may be late but at least the baby reindeer are safe.

Perhaps you’d like a new coat for Christmas? What color would you like?
It might be a good idea to ask Santa for a coat of many colors – something the whole family
can enjoy. On Dec. 13, the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre
stage will swirl with the festive, uplifting colors, costumes, dancing and songs of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s musical, “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.”
The show is based on a story from the Book of Genesis, and tells the tale of a boy who has 11 brothers, all of whom are jealous of him be-cause he is the father’s favorite and has been given a glorious coat of many colors to prove it. The brothers sell Joseph off as a slave, but tell their father that he is dead. Joseph is ultimately imprisoned by his new master. While in prison, he realizes he has the gift to interpret dreams, which puts him in a position of great power in Egypt. He is ultimately in a position to first test
and finally forgive his brothers, when he sees how sorry they are and how much they have learned while he was away.
A pop/rock opera, the story is told entirely in song. Written in the early ’70s, it rose to success on the heels of Webber and Rice’s hit, “Jesus Christ Superstar.” The show employs numerous musical styles and genres, including country-western, Calypso, funk, rock and roll, French ballad and disco.
The title role of Joseph has been played by such heartthrobs as David Cassidy and Donny Osmond. In Civic’s production, it will be played by Butler University graduate and student advi-sor Patrick Clements, who is reprising the role and has been seen on the Booth Tarkington stage in “My Fair Lady” and “West Side Story.”
“I love this show because it’s easy for the actors to have a lot of fun, which leads to the
audience having a lot of fun,” Clements said. “It’s quirky and there are just so many different mu-sical styles in it. But there’s an emotional string running through it, which really pulls everyone in in the end.”
The show will be directed by Michael Lasley. “It’s a big production,” Lasley said. “We have
three rotating kids’ casts and there will be about seventy-five people involved in a per-formance. And we have a lot of first-time Civic performers, so it’s really bringing a fresh energy to the show.”
“I think of it as a good alternative to tradi-tional Christmas shows that maybe the kids have already seen,” Lasley said. “It will appeal to every age group. And we’re adding in some pop culture references and some other fun surprises.”
His 11 brothers are jealous of Joseph’s (Patrick Clements) coat of many colors and the fact he is their father’s favorite son. (Submitted photo)

There are a handful of Christmas films that have endured over the years. Some of them we
have watched so many times that we can quote the lines. “Miracle on 34th Street,” “White Christmas,”
and “A Charlie Brown Christmas,” to name a few. What do they all have in common? They are sto-ries of friendship, family, love and redemption. “A Year with Frog and Toad” is one of those stories.
“A Year with Frog and Toad,” performed by Ac-tor’s Theatre of Indiana, follows the lives of two amphibian friends, lively and optimistic Frog and curmudgeonly Toad, through the four seasons. They, along with other animal friends, experience the same kinds of problems we all do in our day-to-day lives. They’re not happy with the way they look in a swimsuit but they’re still eating cookies with wild abandon.
The score is filled with snappy, memorable tunes; catchy to adults and irresistible to children.
“We first did this show in 2006, and the par-ents clamored for more performances,” said ATI’s artistic director, Don Farrell, who plays Toad. “They bought the soundtrack for their kids and they said that they listened to it in the car all the time. For many kids, this show will be their intro-duction to musical theatre, and it’s a great one.”
“ATI’s season has been about friendship,” Far-rell said. “Frog and Toad is particularly special to me because I get to portray the dear friend of

one of my own dearest friends, Bradley Reynolds, who plays Frog. This show is a wonderful way to bring families together.”
Tim Hunt, Jessica Murphy and Mary Jane Wad-dell round out the cast.
ATI is also adding a special performance with discounted ticket prices at 7 p.m. Dec. 17 for families with children or adults on the autism spectrum, in which they will provide a safe and comfortable environment for everyone to enjoy the show.

Need to get into the holiday spirit this year? Then let the holiday classics wash over you,
sending you down the chimney into Christmas bliss.
Dave Koz and Friends Christmas tour is an uplifting, high-energy show the where some of music’s biggest names will jam on lively arrangements of sea-sonal favorites, led by multi-Grammy nominated saxophonist Koz.
Joining Koz onstage will be Japanese-born pianist/composer/producer Keiko Matsui, world-renowned singer Oleta Adams and Jonathan Butler, the first black artist played on white radio stations in his native South Africa.
“Our show since its inception, started out of love,” Koz said. “I was waiting to interview the great musician, David Benoit, and my father had just passed away and his mom had too and we were talking about the holidays and how we would deal with that loss of love during the holi-days. Music can be so healing so he said, ‘Why don’t we go out and do some shows?’ And that’s how the whole idea was created.”
Koz said he wants his show to be a place of warmth and intimacy, with a feeling of gathering with family and friends.
“That’s what we try to do,” he said. “People leave feeling inspired and taken to a new place

MUSIC
and with New Years right around the corner we hope to have people get a spring in their step for the New Year.”
And that’s a lot of pressure for Koz and Friends after 16 years.
“Every tour is slightly different, and that difference comes from the cast. This year’s cast is exceptional – we are a really unusual mix. We’ve not had a cast of two women and two men and two incredibly talented singers,” Koz said.
He also feels Christmas music is so special to so many people.
“There are beautiful things about Christmas music, you can do all the songs in amazing dif-ferent ways, easily pushed and pulled in different directions, that’s why they are timeless and we can arrange them in a new way every year.”
Koz is also excited about returning to Camel and remembers his first time here.
“’In a town that’s not Indy, is there really a performing arts center?’ I thought,” he said. “Then driving up to Carmel there was this beacon that was absolutely incredible. It’s an incredible, and beautifully sounding room, intimate, and there’s not a bad seat in that house. And for a little town like Carmel, that is amazing.”

More Christmas shopping ideas for tailgaters
Joe Drozda is an author about sports and food. You may contact him at [email protected] or visit www.tailgatershandbook.com.
Commentary by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley
As we said last week, now is a good time to do Christmas shopping for that tailgater on your list because every merchant seems to have a pre-Christmas sale going.
Tailgating gadgets, which are basically camp-ing gear, are marked down further because they are out-of-season. If you think about it, probably the only person that thinks camping gear is in season at this time of the year is someone who wants to try out for that Survivor Man series on TV featuring eight days lost in a Norwegian winter.
During the season, we gave you lots of ideas for neat gifts. For an up-to-date list of sugges-tions with photos, details, and where-to-buy information, visit www.tailgatershandbook.com.
Don’t forget that new aspect of tailgating – breakfast. It’s because we now have far too many games starting at noon.
Just try to tell your kids that all games used to start at 1 p.m. They’ll never believe you.
Noon games mean we need to start tailgating no later than 10 a.m. and that’s a perfect time, as the British say, for a “proper breakfast.” And that doesn’t mean just a cup of fast food coffee and a
easily packs into your car. Its oven holds baking-dish size items on two shelves and the burners are just right for two skillets. Buy your tailgater one of these and you’ll see smiles all around for seasons to come.
For tailgating or that big shopping day, here’s another bar recipe:
Butterscotch BarsIngredients:
• 1/4 cup butter• 1 cup light brown sugar packed• 1 egg• 3/4 cup flour• 1 teaspoon baking powder• 1/2 teaspoon salt• 1/2 teaspoonvanilla• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Preparation: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in brown sugar until well blended. Cool and then stir in egg. Sift together the rest of the dry ingredients and then stir them in to the mixture. Add vanilla and nuts and stir into mixture before spreading into an 8-inch square baking dish or pan. Bake at 350 for about 25 minutes. You’ll know they are done when a touch by your finger leaves a slight imprint. Be careful not to over bake. Cut the bars when they cool.
muffin with egg and cheese. The tailgate host gets a chance to shine by of-
fering a “just-like-Mom-used-to-make” breakfast with good hot coffee, eggs, bacon or sausage (heck – why not both) and hot biscuits or toast.
Such a heartwarming meal is easy if you have the right equipment.
You can brew a great pot of coffee at your tailgate with a Coleman propane coffee maker. It’s just like your coffee maker on the kitchen counter, only powered by propane instead of electricity.
Then there’s the Coleman two-burner stove and oven, which also works on propane and

Rocking around the Christmas tree – School of Rock Carmel, 626 S. Rangeline Rd., is offering three music camps over the holiday break for children to get out the house and get started playing – es-pecially if they received a music instrument for Christmas. The camps include:•Divas Vocals Camp: This is a two-day camp
on Jan. 2 and 3 which will focus on vocal tech-nique for live performance. The students will also leave with an audio recording of them-selves singing, which they will also use as a learning tool during the camp.
•Blues Improv Camp: This is a two-day camp on Jan. 2 and 3 for students on all instruments (guitar, bass, drums, keys and vocals). It will be a fun, low pressure way for students to get familiar with the core components that make up the Blues form.
•SoR Rookies Camp: This is a one-day camp on Jan. 4 for beginners or those who would like to try a lot of different instruments before they choose which ones they’d like to pursue. The students will rotate on instruments that have been modified for students to be able to put together a song in one day.
Camps are $100 per day. Registration is available at https://carmel.schoolofrock.com/camp-signup. For more information, call 848-7625.

Aaron Ashabraner, MD, specializes in family medicine. He is a guest columnist located at IU Health Physicians Primary Care, 11725 N. Illinois St., Suite 595, in Carmel. He can be reached by calling the office at 688-5522.
Each year Indiana University Health North Hos-pital promotes health and wellness in the com-
munity by providing free screenings and health education opportunities
for area residents and students. In addition, the hospital supports numerous Hamilton County nonprofit organizations through financial and in-kind donations in order to help meet the health needs of the community.
“Our efforts go far beyond the walls of the hospital,” said Jon Goble, president and CEO of IU Health North Hospital. “Our staff is dedicated to helping people in our community live healthier lives. We are passionate about the work we do to benefit the community, and we strive to be a resource for our community’s healthcare needs.”
Other 2012 community benefits include: • During the annual IU Health Day of Service
in May, more than 120 associates at IU Health North Hospital volunteered to build Habitat for Humanity home panels. As a result, two homes were built for families in Hamilton County.
• The Kindergarten Countdown program with the United Way helped to prepare Sheridan Elementary students for kindergarten in 2012 through Kindergarten Countdown sum-mer camps that provided at-risk youngsters basic skills for school.
• To increase local access to healthcare, IU Health North Hospital provided free vi-sion and dental screenings at the annual IU Health North Pumpkin Patch Festival to more than 75 children. Blood pressure screenings were also provided along with health education and family activities.
• IU Health North supported a car seat safety program sponsored by the Carmel Police Dept. and Trinity Free Clinic. The hospital’s donation was used to purchase car seats for families in need. To help prevent injuries to children riding in cars, IU Health North devotes 10 hours each month to conducting free car seat safety inspections for com-munity members. In 2012, the hospital staff inspected 144 car seats for safety.
As one of four members of the IU Health sys-tem’s Indianapolis Academic Health Center, IU North’s benefit efforts are reported in conjunc-tion with IU Health’s Indianapolis area hospitals. The following numbers indicate the total contri-butions made by all four hospitals:
• Free or reduced-cost care to more than 139,000 patients ($183 million)
• Community health improvement initiatives ($24 million)
• Health professions education ($63 million)• Research ($36 million)• Financial and In-Kind Contributions ($6 million)A copy of the 2012 Community Benefit report is

IU Health North gives back Commentary by Aaron Ashabraner, M.D.
If you live in Indiana, there’s little doubt your family will brave cold winter temperatures
before spring arrives. Dressing appropriately for cold weather is essential
to avoid frostbite and hypothermia, especially if you plan to be outdoors for longer periods of time. Here are some tips to help you stay warm and healthy this season:
• Although people talk about losing body heat through the head, heat is actually lost from any body part that’s exposed to the ele-ments. It’s a good idea to wear a hat, but remember to keep your entire body covered to conserve heat. Hats and hoods are particularly impor-tant for children, who do lose more heat through their heads. That’s because the surface area ratio of a child’s head relative to his body is much greater.
• If you exercise in the cold or enjoy being outside in the snow, dress in layers. It’s best to wear polypropylene or capilene next to the skin because these synthetic fibers pull water away from the body. Cot-ton should never be worn as an insulator. Cotton, when wet, pulls heat away from
the body much faster than other fabrics. A knit middle layer is recommended (which can be removed if you get too warm) and then add a synthetic outer layer.
Remember that children are particularly vulnerable to cold temperatures because their smaller bodies don’t have the capacity to hold as much energy in reserve to burn when it’s cold. When dressing children for colder tem-peratures, in addition to the tips above, take
care to adequately cover and insulate all exposed body parts, including the ears, nose, hands and feet. This will help keep children warm and avoid frostbite.
When children are playing outdoors in the cold and snow, be sure they take frequent breaks indoors to warm up. Re-
move wet clothing as soon as they come inside. Finally, while dressing warmly in winter is
important, it won’t help you avoid a cold or the flu. If you haven’t been exposed to a virus, expo-sure to cold weather alone won’t increase your chances of developing these illnesses.

Commentary by Mark Wade
Every day on the radio and television, com-panies advertise how important it is for you to
protect yourself from identity theft. The stories they tell are true, the problem is getting
worse, and all of this is preventable. What most Indiana residents don’t realize is
that the State has passed legislation to allow Indiana residents to protect themselves. It’s called a “credit freeze.”
The biggest risk relating to identity theft is that someone obtains your personal informa-tion and uses that information to set up a credit card or other credit facility. This allows them then to borrow money and make pur-chases in your name. In an extreme case they may even buy a house or a car once this credit has been established.
Once you have identified that your identity has been stolen, it can take a great deal of your time and money to unwind this debt in your name or separate yourself from the obligation. By the time you identify what is happening to you, the thieves have already realized the benefit of this devious conduct and are gone.
So how does a credit freeze work? It’s re-ally a simple process if you have access to the Internet.
First, visit the Indiana Attorney General’s
Website at www.in.gov/attorneygeneral/2411.htm.
Once on that Webpage you will see a listing of the three credit reporting agencies, Equifax, Experian and Transamerica. Underneath the name and address of each agency is a link, “Place a Security Freeze Online with …”
Simply click on each link and follow the instructions for each agency to freeze your credit report. Make sure that you freeze all three agencies. Many states charge for each freeze. By Indiana law, there is no cost for this service.
After you have completed this process, you will receive a PIN number from each of the agencies in the mail. Don’t lose these PIN num-bers. Keep them in a safe place. If you need to secure credit or borrow money in the future, you will want to un-freeze your credit reports. You will need your PIN numbers to do this.
This is a process that every Indiana resident should be aware of. Taking advantage of what our State government has created, with no cost to any resident, makes good financial sense. Especially considering the times we now live in.
Protected from identity theft?

Obamacare delays for businesses - The piece of healthcare.gov meant for small businesses won’t work for an additional year, the White House admitted. The administration is send-ing small businesses to insurance agents and brokers for the next year to buy health insurance. The Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP), intended to give companies with less than 50 employees an easy way to compare and buy health plans online, has been mired in delays. The administration says it will be ready by November 2014. The change applies only to the federal health exchange. States that built their own small business marketplaces are unaffected by today’s announcement.

Commentary by Don Knebel
Because a volcanic eruption froze Pompeii forever in the first century, today’s visitors can
explore an ancient city having ame-nities still enviable by residents of some cities. Houses had running
water, indoor toilets, colonnaded courtyards and colorful, if sometimes obscene, frescos. Scholars have long known that Pompeii’s destruction was chronicled by a famous eyewitness. Some believe its opulence and sudden demise are also described in the Bible.
Pompeii was located on the Bay of Naples, about five miles from Mt. Vesuvius. Ash from past volcanic eruptions had made the surrounding soil unusually fertile. Pompeii’s proximity to the sea made it an attractive vacation destination for wealthy Romans and home to local merchants made rich importing luxury items. Pompeii resi-dents were well known for their conspicuous consumption and enjoyment of pleasures of the flesh. With a population of maybe 10,000 people, Pompeii had more than 120 bars and up to 35 brothels, some displaying explicit pictures of their services.
Pompeii and thousands of its inhabitants were destroyed in 79 A.D., when Vesuvius erupted with unexpected ferocity, quickly burying the city under about 20 feet of pumice and ash. Plaster casts made from cavities formed around de-cayed bodies show many victims died suddenly
Does the Bible describe Pompeii’s demise?
Plaster cast of Pompeii victim (Photo by Don Knebel)
TrAvEl
while covering their faces to avoid the hot vol-canic gases. The actual location of Pompeii was lost until 1599 when it was accidentally rediscov-ered and its buildings and art found to have been remarkably well preserved by the hardened ash.
The story of Pompeii’s destruction is known from letters written by Pliny the Younger, who watched from across the bay as his uncle, a Ro-man sea captain named Pliny the Elder, attempted an unsuccessful rescue by boat. Pliny the Young-er’s later letters documenting his persecution of Christians provide some of the earliest evidence of Christianity outside the Bible. It seems fitting
that a growing number of scholars believe the Bible contains another account of Pompeii. The eighteenth chapter of Revelation describes God’s sudden annihilation of a great city by fire and dust because of its great wealth, excessive luxuries and carnal sins. The parallels are many and strik-ing, as you can read for yourself.

Commentary by Jordan Fischer
Question: Will you please address the use of the following: “The President he is giving a
speech,” as opposed to what I was taught - “The President is giving a
speech.” I’ve noticed lately that news anchors/readers on both local and national/cable broad-casts are using the first example, and it drives me crazy! THANKS! (Susie in Zionsville)
Answer: Susie, I don’t have an explanation for why newscasters would construct their sen-tences this way other than – if I may take the liberty of inventing a phrase – a case of “stumbly mouth.” We all remember the trials of high school speech class, and I, for one, am prone to forgive the occasional on-camera tongue slip. I mean, I can barely manage talking to myself.
That being said, we certainly can take a look at why the above construction is wrong. It boils down to pronouns and the rules for their use.
First: What is a pronoun? A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun or a noun phrase. The noun being substituted for is called the “antecedent.”
To quickly illustrate the point, an example: “Ann grabbed the ball and then quickly ran it in for a touchdown.” The pronoun “it” takes the place of its antecedent “ball.”
Pronouns have a lot of uses, but the most common one is to avoid repetition. This is the
grAMMAr gUY
Out-of-place pronounscase in our example sentence. Without a pro-noun, we would have: “Ann grabbed the ball and then quickly ran the ball in for a touchdown.” Is it grammatically incorrect? No. Does it sound awk-ward and repetitive? You betcha.
Pronouns come into play when we want to refer back to a noun in a later clause or phrase. I’m hav-ing trouble coming up with an occasion in which it would be appropriate to use a subject pronoun like “he” to refer back to an antecedent within the same phrase, i.e. “the president he is…” Why is this? Because the pronoun can effectively be read as its antecedent, meaning the sentence would be, “The president the president is giving a speech.” That takes repetition to a whole new level.
You might see a noun and a pronoun right next to each other if they are separated by a comma, though, again, they would not be part of the same phrase or clause. Example: “Ann, she is my friend, scored a touchdown.” The main clause is “Ann scored a touchdown.” “She is my friend” serves as a parenthetical dependent clause.
In conclusion: Is, “The president he is giving a speech,” correct? No. Do I think it’s a case of “stumbly mouth?” Yes. Am I overly enthusiastic about using the phrase “stumbly mouth?” Possibly.

Selecting a theme for your décor is the most direct path to achieving
high style for the holidays.
Whether that theme is a traditional Santa’s workshop, or Winter Wonderland, a common thread will create a cohe-sive look to your decorating. Start with what you have.
A garden theme can include arrangements featuring tools gleaned from the garage alongside Mother Nature’s contribution of pinecones, ever-green and holly.
If you happen to own an abundance of silver pieces, pull it out of the buffet and create a sur-real wonderland with white and silver
A color theme can pull your year round décor into the holidays and there is no rule that it all has to be red and green. Plum paired with gold, sage paired with russet and monochro-matic Christmas decorations are decadent combinations.
The wow factor in Christmas decoration is sparkle … and lots of it. Whether it is on a tree, a garland or an arrangement, those shiny orna-ments are key.
When decorating your tree, use those sparkling gems deep inside the tree to dance the light around the branches. The decorative ornaments are better suited for the tips of the branches.
Start your lights deep in the tree and work forward for depth and reflection. If you work in vertical sections rather than wrapping the tree, removing the lights will be easy.
Tucking whispy touches of Dacron pillow fluff from the fabric store into your tree will lend a snowy iridescence.
Another idea to add sparkle to your holiday
Christmas decorating in high style
décor is to collect your mismatched, unused or slightly imperfect candlesticks and spray paint them in bright gold or silver. Cluster at least five of these with unexpected combinations of green-ery, such as boxwood, from your landscaping with evergreen eucalyptus to create a lush but lively Christmas arrangement.
A bright Christmas décor can come from color, as well as metallics. Any large clear glass con-tainer can become a designer arrangement with layers of limes, cranberries and oranges. A sprig of greenery on top finishes this festive vessel.
Another secret to a high design holiday is abundance. Treat the garland that runs up the staircase to a full and rich look with thick greenery, clusters of ornaments, feathers and ribbon. The rule of abundance also holds true for your tree and arrangements. Clustering and layering hold the secret to high design Christmas decorating.

Ridge addition on the west side
of Carmel was built in 1989. The basement was already completely finished but was lacking the archi-tectural details the homeowners wanted.
“We wanted to upgrade the basement,” stated the home-owner. “It was boring. We wanted to add a little character and make it a place we wanted to hang out in.” The homeowners wanted a rustic feel to the space, including a wine tast-ing area, which drove the design and material choices.
STACKED STONE: A dry-stacked stone wall in Ledgewood Chisel Gray was installed on the TV wall, providing the look of a fireplace without having to actually build one. As a focal point of the basement, the style of the wall was carried out throughout the basement.
DECORATIVE MOLDINGS: To add a more fin-ished feel, wainscoting was added to most of the basement walls. Columns and a decorative wall were added to create a drink ledge near the

main bar area. Faux columns gave an exception-ally long wall purpose by creating a niche for family photos.
CUSTOM SHELVING: Having a place for the family’s memorabilia collection was included in the final design as well. Floating stained shelving was custom built around the items they would hold. Beyond their functionality, the shelves were designed in varying depths and lengths to add dimension to the long, flat wall.

“Posting our job opening in Current was a tremendous success. Within hours of the issue being distributed, we had numerous inquiries from very qualified individuals. We signed up to have our ad run for two weeks, but was able to settle for one since we found the perfect person to fill our position so quickly. You can't beat Current when trying to reach out to the local public, and we will definitely use its services again."
