When it comes to tourism and lodging, the numbers say that Hamilton County is among the strongest economic areas in Indiana.

According to a recent report by STR – Global/Smith Travel Research – Hamilton County’s occupancy rate was 63 percent for the first six months of 2012, which is an increase of 8.4 percent in room demand compared to a year ago. It’s also well above the statewide occupancy of 55.4 percent. Not only is there increased demand, but the report also shows that the average daily room rate increased nearly 9 percent.

“The report’s findings are an indicator of how healthy the sup-ply and demand side of the market is,” said Executive Director Brenda Myers. “Tourism finally is making a comeback close to pre-recession days.”

The average daily room was $93.49 during the first half of 2012, compared to $81.76 a year ago. While the 2012 Super Bowl helped increase occupancy and rates, Hamilton County also

had healthy gains from other factors, including increased sports events, Klipsch Music Center, general leisure travel and corporate travel. During the first half of the year, 22 of 26 weekends showed increased occupancy.

These indicators are good news for the tourism industry and lo-cal businesses that benefit from visitor spending. From late 2008 through 2009, the nation’s hotel industry suffered one of its worst free-falls in more than 40 years, so the news of continued growth continues to fuel optimism for the future.

Corpus won the prize for Best Up and Coming Artist Under 30 for her oil paint-ing “Three Spaces.” This is Corpus’ first time being ac-cepted into the Exhibition.

Kruse won the prize for Best Contemporary work for the oil painting “A Young Mr. Peabody in the Library.”

Two additional Carmel artists are among the 93 whose works were selected: J.D. Naraine for the oil painting “Silent Night” and the pastel piece “Young Dancer,” and April Willy for the oil painting “Expectation.”

Money Magazine announced Mon-day its annual list of the “Best Places to Live” in America, placing Carmel at its No. 1 spot for small towns and cities.

Carmel beat out more than 750 other cities in its bracket – cities with populations between 50,000 and 300,000 – to take the top rank. Previ-ously, Carmel was ranked 14th on the list in 2010.

“I think it’s a vindication of Carm-el’s development over the last 20 years or more,” said City Council President Rick Sharp.

Fellow council member Eric Seiden-sticker concurred.

“It’s a testament to the work not only from the council, but from com-mittees who have put in so much over the years to making Carmel a beautiful place,” Seidensticker said.

Although he had been interviewed by reporters from Money, Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said the top rank-ing came as a surprise to him as well.

“I saw it on the Today Show with everyone else,” Brainard said.

Brainard took the opportunity at Monday’s city council meeting to con-gratulate city employees for their hard work in earning the award, and to en-courage the city not to “sit on its laurels.”

“This is an opportunity for us to con-tinue marketing the city,” Brainard said. “If you can attract the best employees, you can attract the best employers. And we have to work very hard because we don’t have oceans and mountains.”

In an interview with Fox 59, Cybele Weisser, a senior editor at Money, said that new developments like the City Center and Palladium had helped Car-mel jump to the first spot from 14th in two years.

“Carmel just had everything we were looking for,” Weisser told Fox.

commentary by John accetturo

There is a lot to comment on about the Car-mel Redevelopment Commission’s financial mess; however, as a former CRC commissioner who resigned, I think it is best Carmel residents know why it is such a mess.

The commissioners are accomplished people, so it amazes me how differently they approach things once inside the political world of the commission. Most of the decisions the commis-sion made while I was a member were made in executive sessions and reflected in totality what the mayor wanted to do. There were other meet-ings that certain commissioners attended with the mayor, the executive director, consultants, lawyers and others, but as a commissioner I was never apprised of what happened. There were no votes taken behind closed doors. But after pre-sentations from consultants and their lawyers in executive sessions, it was well known how you were supposed to vote in the public sessions. Look at all the 5-0 votes of the Commission over the last 12 years – you could never get that much consensus from business decision makers.

I was once asked by another commissioner if I knew how certain city council finance com-mittee members were going to vote on a bond request. At that point, I wanted to crawl under the table and leave. I went home and told my wife I was going to resign because of my ethical

conflict with having to serve two masters, and with the way the CRC operates.

I could not believe the multimillion dollar decisions that were being made by CRC com-missioners with little or no business process analysis being completed. They relied totally on what they were told by consultants, their loyalty to the mayor and an attorney who continually reassured them everything was legal. This is what has gotten them into the financial mess they have come with to the city council to try to resolve. They borrowed money in secondary- and third-level markets at high rates because they could not justify bonding the debt, because the revenue wasn’t there. But, they still contin-ued to spend.

Do I think things will change? Absolutely not! Just last week, the CRC dropped a bomb on the city council finance committee by notify-ing it for the first time that the city supposedly owes the CRC $5.5 million for piping to hook city buildings up to the energy center. What kind of sound financial management is this? The CRC needs to be shut down because Carmel taxpayers just can’t afford it!

Finding the middle groundfrom the “moderate” Side by Jim blessing

I’m just back from a nice weekend in Chi-cago, where I sat in the bleachers for the first time and saw the Cubs get a rare win. Even the downtrodden deserve a victory once in a while!

In my previous column, I discussed con-cerns with Tea Party “Republican” Richard Mourdock’s uncompromising approach to gov-ernance. Compromise has always been a part of the American way. After all, without major compromises by all involved parties, the Consti-tution would never have been ratified.

According to Wiley’s Online Library, “a com-promise is an agreement that involves mutual concessions. Each party gets less than it feels entitled to, but agrees to it because the situation it anticipates under the deal is better than the one in absence of a deal.”

Is finding middle ground to break the partisan gridlock really that difficult? Sensible citizens on either side of the political spectrum should be able to find reasonable solutions to our country’s problems if they are willing to work together for the common good. Obviously, each side can’t expect to have everything its way.

Senatorial candidate Mourdock defines com-promise as waiting for the other side to agree with him. While that may get applause from his supporters, Mourdock is exactly the kind of politician we don’t need more of, as his refusal to compromise ensures partisan gridlock.

So, I invite Republicans who believe that com-promise is not a dirty word to consider supporting a moderate candidate … even if he or she might sit on the other side of the aisle. Recently, a former Lugar Super PAC donor did just that, holding a fundraiser to support Mourdock’s opponent, Joe Donnelly. Apparently, this gentleman is a Repub-lican who doesn’t share Mourdock’s publicly ex-pressed attitude of “my way or the highway.”

What can voters do to help break the gridlock? Send sensible politicians to Washington who fol-low the example of the Founding Fathers, and who are willing to negotiate compromises to ad-dress the country’s most pressing problems.

COMMUNITY Plain talk

commentary by marnin Spigelman

The statistics gleaned by CNN/Money seem to have been fed by the Mayor’s magical num-bers team.

What is quite interesting is to compare statis-tics compiled by www.city-data.com in 2009 as a comparison to the supposedly current statis-tics. That year gives a picture of the economy in the throes of recession, and it seems question-able that Carmel has had such an astonishing recovery.

Carmel’s median family income in 2009 was $87,133. For that number to increase by 38.5 per-cent to $120,714 appears incredible in the midst of a recession. If that number is correct, it may be due in large part to the Clay annexation and not necessarily through any action by the Mayor.

Per capita income in Carmel in 2009 was $43,515. Interesting that CNN/Money did not report the current figure.

Carmel’s median home price in 2009 was $295,900. If the current asserted figure of $268,750 is correct, that is a 10 percent overall loss in property values. It may still be dropping given the recent property assessments.

The rosy story in the article gives the same pic-ture I saw when I first came to Carmel. What I experienced was a clean, good-looking suburb with nice buildings, plenty of trees (many visible ones have now been cut down) and convenient road-

ways. What is missed in the story is the underlying political and financial situation in Carmel.

Notwithstanding the fact that there is hardly a commercial building in the city that does not have a for-lease sign attached, the Monon Center facility is operating at a consistent loss, the Performing Arts Center has impacted both residential and commercial taxes by more than $7.5 million this year alone, the Arts and De-sign District is an arbitrary success and many businesses and restaurants are having difficulties staying in business.

Carmel might be a wonderful-looking city on its face, but any and all new residents will be faced with the problems that have been or are yet to be created by this city government. I believe that CNN/Money should investigate the underlying city condition, rather than totally relying on data supplied by the government.

The numbers don't add up

Cover story

New Center for the Performing Arts CEO Tania Castroverde Moskalenko talks about stepping into one of Carmel’s most-watched jobs

tania and her husband alexei

by Jordan fischer • [email protected]

It has been a storied year for the president’s chair at the Center for the Performing Arts.

Twelve months ago, former CEO Steven Lib-man abruptly resigned. Media scrutiny in the wake of his resignation revealed the city of Car-mel, under the direction of Mayor Jim Brainard, had hired a private investigator to look into the center and its then-CEO.

Constant questions were spawned about the $160 million performing arts venue and its fi-nancial future. Chief among those: What would the Center’s request for funding from the city be for the 2011-2012 season?

Interim President Frank Basile eventually gave that answer: $5.5 million. But with that request came a redoubled commitment from the Center to increase fundraising and develop private do-nation sources.

On Aug. 13, Basile turned over the chair to the Center’s second permanent executive, Tania Castroverde Moskalenko.

“There’s a lot to learn,” Moskalenko said, “but I moved here and a week later (Carmel) is named the Best Place to Live in the country, so I like to think I made the right choice.”

A plAn for the future“We need to have a strategic plan in place,

because there is not one,” Moskalenko said. Both she and John Hughey, external relations

director for the Center, pointed to the Carmel Clay Public Library’s strategic plan development as a model for the process. Moskalenko said she’d like to see a professional strategic mediator brought in on the project.

“This needs to be a shared vision of all the stakeholders in an organization,” Moskalenko said. “I don’t necessarily think it should be the president doing that, so that it’s not just the president’s vision.”

Big-Budget finAnciAlsThough there is no number yet as to what

Carmel’s portion will be of the Center’s operat-ing budget, most city officials say they don’t expect the number to decrease significantly anytime soon.

Moskalenko doesn’t seem to, either.“These are facilities that were built by the city,

and I think the expectation is that it will always be supported by the city,” she said.

Hughey said the Center has always been cha-grined by the media’s characterization of Carmel’s

portion of that operating budget as a “shortfall.”“It’s not a shortfall,” he said. “It’s part of our

budget.”“This model exists all over the country,” Mos-

kalenko said. “But for some reason it gets an incredible amount of negative press.”

in need of endowmentWhen Basile took the helm of the Center, he

inherited a question: What progress had been made on the proposed $50 million endowment to help support the Center?

Not much. Basile minced neither words nor obvious dis-

appointment when he presented his findings to city council members who, having seen the endowment as a sweetener to the $80 million CRC-backed bond taken out on the Palladium performance hall,

had their own concerns about the news.Moskalenko says she knows that question is

still at the fore of many minds.“I think it would have been a lot easier

had the endowment been in place,” she said. “It’s our top priority.”

Moskalenko said the Center has raised more than $9 mil-lion in private donations since 2010, including $3 million from corporate donors. In June, the Center secured its fifth major commitment of more than $1 million from a private donor.

“Certain things have to be in place for the money to come in,” Moskalenko said. “One of those things is excellent program-ming. Another is great marketing, and the third piece is relation-ships. It’s crucial those are built.”

Moskalenko pointed to relationships with St.Vincent Health, last year’s series sponsor, and Krieg DeVault, which signed a three-year sponsor-ship agreement for the Cen-ter’s annual Encore Celebration Gala, as evidence of progress.

In talking with potential cor-porate and private donors, Mos-kalekno said she’s echoed the three buzzwords championed by Brainard: quality of life.

“In order to attract and retain talent, you have to have amenities,” she said. “I think the performing arts are a big part of that.”

Two weeks into her tenure as CEO, it’s unclear yet what Moskalenko’s long-term impact will be. For the short-term, though, Hughey said he’s already seen her working to develop a “spirit of gratitude.”

“We can’t take for granted the relation-ships we have or the community support,” Moskalenko said. “We’re very grateful.”

VIEWS Opinion

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

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

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

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

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

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

commentary by terry anker

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

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

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

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

We are the champions

If the speed with which the U.S. 31 project has transformed half of the project at Clay Ter-race Boulevard/North Range Line Road thus far is any indication, the subsequent phases from 2013 to 2015 – weather permitting – equally should be a treat. Yes, there will be traffic jams for short periods each day, just as there have been, but the results should prove pleasing to everyone in the city that uses either U.S. 31 or any of the now-intersecting thoroughfares (106th, 116th, Main and 136th streets) on even a semi-regular basis. The opportunity to traverse our community on any of those roads with nary a stop at what is being converted to a freeway will be a remarkable convenience for all of us. Continual flow of traffic, which we’re now see-ing in the Clay Terrace area really is noteworthy. And it doesn’t take long to get over not sitting in traffic at a light, as you and we previously have experienced on North Range Line or coming out of Clay Terrace. At first, we were skeptical of how the whole project would unfold. Now, having seen it and experienced it often, we’re encouraged for the Carmel portion of the cor-ridor. There is no reason to believe this segment of the project running from I-465 to South Bend won’t parrot the efficiency and quickness of the work being done today. A case of good things coming to those who wait? We believe so, but we’ll let you be the judge as the project continues to unfold.

commentary by derek fisher

I grew up in Kokomo. Don’t hold that against me.That’s not to say I dislike the place; quite the

opposite, actually. That factory- and stoplight-laden seat of Howard County certainly has its charms, not the least of which are its great local eateries, its museums and its water park.

But, you know, Kokomo is … Kokomo. It’s blue collar, it’s rural, it’s simple, it’s country. Those things really don’t have much in common with Carmel. I spent the bulk of my first 25 or so years disliking this fine city, if I’m completely honest. I thought it was pretentious – form over function ran rampant, in my book. I thought roundabouts were ridiculous. I viewed its evening traffic from afar, as if it mirrored Los Angeles’ gridlock (two John Deeres side-by-side constitute a vehicular backup on U.S. 31 in Ko-komo, you see.)

But then, I spent some time here, mostly by chance. I met a girl here, I found work here, and

so I was here. Like, a lot. Still am.Now, I see less pretense in Carmel, and more

potential. I figured out that I liked navigating roundabouts, because they’re a great test of antici-pation and reaction time; I look forward to them now. And that traffic? Not so bad at all, really.

So, here I sit: your new editor. I’m looking for a house in the area as I write. I love the Monon, I love downtown, I love a woman who lives here. I can’t readily foresee a scenario that has me living outside a 10-mile radius of this place in the next 15 years. Am I a full-fledged Carmelite? No, I wouldn’t go that far. But in the same breath, to say Carmel has grown on me would be a vast understatement.

Yep, I’ve switched sides. Don’t hold that against me.

commentary by danielle wilson

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

A grim future with teens

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Join the cast of “gypsy” in the Studio theatre at the center for the perform-ing arts after the September 7 per-formance for desserts and drinks to celebrate the inaugural performance of ati’s 8th Season! tickets to the opening night performance and after party are available for $28 by using promotion code aticurrent28 at www.actorsthe-atreofindiana.org.

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

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

NIGHT & DAY Review

by nina kennedy Carmel Clay Public Library

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

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

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

NIGHT & DAY Et cetera

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

It’sGoldenTuesday, August 28, 2012

Vol. 2, No. 3

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

DOUGH Insurancecommentary by Jamie ianigro

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

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

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

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

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

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

Do I need insurance on my grown children?

commentary by Jordan fischer

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Using affect/effect effectively

LIFESTYLE Philanthropy

by Julie osborne • [email protected]

It began as a Carmel mom’s idea to show her kids another side of life beyond their upper-middle class suburban lifestyle, but what started as a parenting lesson has exploded into a com-munity project called “Ken-Ya Help Us?”

Occurring Saturday, Sept. 1 from 2-6 p.m. at Second Presbyterian Church, 7700 N. Merid-ian St., Indianapolis, the Kenya Carnival is the program’s premiere event and has raised more than $100,000 to support 120 Kenyan students through high school in its first four years.

What makes the carnival unique is that it is student-led.

“We empower students from both Kenya and our local community, allowing Indianapolis students to take charge of planning the carnival and running our organization,” said 2012 Co-leader Ben Booher, a junior at Carmel High School. “The creativity of kids along with the guidance of adult mentors makes our organiza-tion a charity powerhouse.”

The “Ken-Ya Help Us?” project is not only about raising money, however. Its goal is also to raise awareness of the struggles of Kenyan chil-dren, many orphaned by the AIDS epidemic. Last summer, 10 area high school students and five adult mentors met these students on a trip to Kenya and brought back information to pres-

ent at the Carnival on topics ranging from clean water and housing to women’s issues and educa-tion. The group learned about daily struggles through home visits as well as “hands-on” ex-perience with building a hut made out of mud and dung.

2012 Co-Leader Jake Dennie, a senior at Brebeuf Jesuit explains, “We aren’t just improv-ing the lives of AIDS orphans in Kenya, we are creating young men and women who are pas-sionate about using their abilities to make the world a better place.”

For more information on how to help Carmel youths make Kenya a better place, visit kenya-carnival.com or visit the premiere sponsor, the Simply Sweet Shoppe in downtown Carmel.

There is no reason to shy away from this chic accessory because of the fear of “hat head.” The solution? A classic half-up/half-down look that might remind you of your schoolgirl days is a perfect resting place for your hat because it will not leave room for “hat head.” If you are still unsure, pack a comb and travel hairspray in your bag as extra insurance on your post-hat ‘do’.

Eyeshadow ShadesWhile trying the newest eye makeup trends can be fun, not all eyeshadow hues are suitable for every eye color.

Brown eyed girls should stick with shades of green, bronze, copper, amber or pale blue. These colors will create subtle drama that will deepen the color of your eyes.

If you have blue and gray eyes, shadows with a hint of brown (think brick, peach or purple) or yellow-gold bring out the bright blues or smoky gray to create an alluring look.

Hazel and green eyed gals should consider mauve, pale purple, pewter, lilac or light brown which will bring out the gold �ecks and make green eyes �icker.

Stop in and see one of our trained estheticians for a makeup consultation!

Jewels

As we have seen, large jewelry has been a staple item in recent fashion mags and on the runways. Eye catching pieces, such as a one-of-a-kind cocktail ring, large cuffs in a bright color, or an ethnic necklace are essentials for this season.

Brighten up your wardrobe and update your look with some show-stopping jewelry. Beware, however, large jewelry pieces are meant to be worn alone. Pick one piece and stick with it. Two or more pieces will be overkill.

INSIDE & OUT Indoors

commenaty by dave decker

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

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

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

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

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

INSIDE & OUT Outdoors

lanscaping by randy Sorrell

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

naturalBoulder fire pits speak volumes to an outdoor

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

formalOf course, everyone would love a dreamy

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

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

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

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

Fire features bring you closer
