It is our position a societal change in attitude is necessary to manage distractions while driv-ing to ensure safety on the road. The National Transportation Safety Board recently called for a first-ever complete nationwide ban on driver use of cell phones and portable electronic devices. Distracted driving is the new DUI. Somehow, common sense eludes many drivers as they are behind the wheel of a 3,000-pound piece of metal when their cell phone rings or they hear a ding indicating a new text message. The current anti-texting/e-mail-while-driving law in Indiana is difficult to enforce. If the onus is placed on the government to save us from ourselves and others who are driving while distracted, what does that say about our society? Should drivers be mandated to use a mobile application that automati-cally turns off cell phone capabilities while driving, or are they capable of using the “off“ button? Music, reading, grooming, eating and noise of passengers always have been frequent distractions for drivers – and now, PEDs. It is unrealistic to rely soley on the government to legislate drivers from being distracted. The hope is for a change in drivers’ attitudes to safely manage the distractions.

Driving change Penn StateIt is our position the scandal at Penn State last

year was, if not the darkest, one of the darkest moments in sports. We also believe Penn State made the correct deci-sion in not allowing Joe Paterno to finish the season as head coach of its football team.

The scandal, which involved allegations of former defensive coordina-tor Jerry Sandusky sexually abusing young children who were involved in his charity, Second Mile was known to Paterno for at least part of the reported 15 years these actions occurred. Original reports claimed Pa-terno would finish the season and retire. We believe Penn State’s board of trustees made the correct decision in firing him on the spot. Paterno was put into a position that carried great prominence not only for the football team, but the university and surrounding area as well. He proved he was not up to the responsibility that came with being a community leader. No matter how great your football knowledge, not reporting Sandusky’s alleged actions proved Paterno was not a role model. We hope everyone has learned from Paterno’s transgression and takes the appropriate actions if found in the same situation.

Barry Manilow, the award-winning song-writer and vocalist, is to be among the hon-orees at the June 16 gala at The Palladium at The Center for the Performing Arts, we have learned. Manilow and others to be named next month will be inductees to the Great American Songbook Hall of Fame at the Center. The Center has soft-launched table sales for the formal event on a one-on-one basis, and they are said to be priced at $7,500 for corporate tables and $5,000 for others. Each table is to seat 10 persons. John Hughey, director of external relations for the Center, said Michael Feinstein, the Center’s artistic director, will launch the public phase of table sales on Feb. 15, when he will announce all the Hall of Fame inductees along with specific gala details. The Hall of Fame will induct new artists each year, recognizing their contribu-tions to the Songbook. This is the second gala for The Palladium; the initial gala Jan. 25, 2011, was a sellout, and its tickets were the most sought-after Hamilton County has ever seen. Krieg DeVault is sponsoring the June event. To be clear, the June gala is not a Manilow concert; he will attend and perform, but that represents only a portion of the evening. Manilow, who you may not know

is also a jingle writer of strong repute, is a highly-decorated performer. Among his many honors: 1978-1980 American Music Awards Favorite Pop/Rock Male Artist, 2006 Emmy for Outstanding Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program for Barry Ma-nilow: Music and Passion, 1977 Emmy for Outstanding Special - Comedy-Variety or Music for The Barry Manilow Special, 1979 Grammy Award for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for Copacabana and a 2002 in-duction into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. As for his jingles, beneficiaries of his handiwork include McDonald’s, KFC, Band-Aid, State Farm, Pepsi, Stridex and Dr. Pepper. We can’t wait to learn of the rest of the lineup for June.

1 night, 8 votes and a wild caucus


COMMEntaRyBy Robert Herrington

I don’t know about you, but I am already hooked on the Republican primary election. Typically I don’t follow politics at the national level, but the time leading up and during the presidential election is intriguing. While it does get old – especially when you find yourself vot-ing for the lesser of two evils because you can’t get motivated about either – I think I enjoy watching the democratic process play out.

I stayed up until 2:30 a.m. watching and waiting to see who won the Iowa caucus last week. And if you thought the election night was wild, the drama picked up the following day.

Michele Bachmann was in, then she was out. Rick Perry was out, and then he announced he was back in. Rick Santorum raised $1 mil-lion overnight from his strong showing – after spending 73 cents per vote he received. Newt Gingrich vowed to drop the halo and pick up his pitchfork, and the election season officially started for Jon Huntsman.

In the grand scheme of things, do the results from the Iowa caucus matter? Not likely. Did the speeches/reaction from each candidate change my thoughts on who I’d like to see as the presidential nominee? No. So what did I take from the last week’s election?

What I like most about Iowa is the fact it re-ally showed the importance of casting your vote.

At one point – hours after my wife called it a night and went to bed – CNN had 99 percent of the ballots in and only one vote separated Mitt Romney and Santorum.

We’ve had some close elections in Hamilton County, but with just two precincts out, one vote separated the winner and runner-up of a national primary election. It was history unfold-ing live on TV and a great instructional mo-ment for social studies teachers.

Iowa also provided an example on how wild and unpredictable the democratic process can be. Going into the evening, all the pundits projected a win for Ron Paul, a strong showing from Romney and Santorum as a wild card. By the end, it was the little engine that could whose grassroots movement connected with Iowa vot-ers and provided an almost “Rocky”-like result.

Indiana’s primary is May 8. I expect by then the field will be narrowed – maybe the nominee will already be selected – but the time lead-ing up to then will be filled with many more memorable moments so stay tuned – and most importantly, informed – for when it’s our turn to cast votes.

I must say I’m rather disappointed. I waited to write this column until after my appoint-ment, confident I’d be busting with hilarious anecdotes and entertaining mishaps. But alas, here I sit with nary a tale and a sense of anti-climactic restlessness. The Mighty Mammogram turned out to be not so mighty after all!

Because I turn 40 painfully soon, my doctor encouraged me to schedule a baseline mammo-gram. Luckily, I have no family history of breast cancer or any other risk factors, so I’ve been able to delay the exam until now. And I have wanted to delay it. The thought of some techni-cian with carny hands shoving my girls between ice-cold metal plates recalled long-suppressed nightmares of breastfeeding twins, when I was nothing more than a strung-out milcher work-ing overtime.

Nevertheless, I made the stupid appointment and figured at the very least, the experience would make for a good story. But nooooooo.

For starters, the breast center was more like a spa than a doctor’s office, with soft ambient lighting, faux-mahogany lockers and friendly, welcoming women. If I’d had a mimosa and a masseuse named Paulo, I would have gladly re-laxed all day! I was actually disappointed my wait was so short, as I’d discovered a missed edition of People Magazine and was thoroughly enjoying a quiet moment. My nurse did not in fact have

carny hands, and explained every step of the procedure to dissuade my lingering anxiety. The worst part was the slight embarrassment I suf-fered at having so little to work with, if you catch my drift.

Yes, I was squeezed a bit, and yes, for a sec-ond I vowed to create the first ever scrotal-gram machine to see how men liked having their gib-lets flattened like a crepe, but honestly, it was no big deal. I’d definitely take a mammogram over a pap smear any day!

So since nothing traumatic happened, allow me to plug an opportunity to contribute to breast cancer research:

In conjunction with the Super Bowl and Indy’s Super Cure Initiative, the Komen Tissue Bank in Indianapolis is hosting a breast tissue collection event Jan. 28-29. Researchers re-cently learned their center is the only one in the world to have both healthy and cancerous tissue samples from two separate women, a major de-velopment in breast cancer research. Their goal is 700 samples, with half coming from women of diverse ages, ethnicities and geographic back-grounds. To register, visit http://komentissue-bank.iu.edu. Peace out.

Michael E. Hamilton, director at the VA Illiana Health Care System, retired on Dec. 30, 2011, after 29 years with the Department of Veterans Affairs, including nearly four years as the Director at VAIHCS in Danville, Ill. Hamilton will be returning to Noblesville, where he and his wife Ada, a retired VA nurse, have lived for several years. He plans to spend more time with his grandson and also write a book.

In April 2008, Hamilton welcomed a chance to become the director at VAIHCS and develop a long-term strategic plan to address the main campus’ infra-structure and other needs. Hamilton said he now feels comfortable retiring knowing that a number of projects have been completed and others are on the horizon.

Under Hamilton’s leadership, VAIHCS received a $15 million project to replace a 1930 energy plant that used high-pressure steam with three “green” miniature boiler plants that use low-pressure steam and require less staffing. VAIHCS also completed a $6 million renovation of the acute care unit built in 1932 and a $3.9 million project that gives nursing home patients skilled care in a more dignified, home-like setting, making it the first VA facility in the na-tion to do so. Plans call for three more homes that are currently being designed. In addition, the facility has made other renovations including opening a healing

garden for the nursing home veterans.“I have had the good fortune to work for a

great organization – the Department of Vet-erans Affairs. Being a Veteran myself, I can-not think of a more noble cause for a career than by serving and honoring our returning heroes who have made this country what it is today,” Hamilton said.

A Bronze Star recipient from his military service in South Vietnam, Hamilton is a U.S. Army veteran and Lt. Col., Ret., U.S. Army Reserves. A native of Fulton, Tenn., Hamilton received his Bachelor’s Degree in soci-ology/health, physical education in 1970 from Murray State University and his Master’s Degree in education in 1972. Hamilton received the Golden Horseshoe award from Murray State University as a Distinguished Alumnus. He also received his Master’s Degree in health administration in 1978 from Indiana University. He graduated from the Command and General Staff College while in the U.S. Army Reserves.

Hamilton has served on several national and re-gional VA task forces and advisory groups. He is a Leadership VA graduate and a member of the Senior Executive Service. He has received numerous awards and commendations from city and state level service organizations and from the VA. He is a member American College of Healthcare Executives and a Veterans Health Administration Certified mentor and coach.

Current in NoblesvilleA Marion Circuit judge has

granted a stay on his order removing Charlie White as In-diana secretary of state pending the outcome of an appeal from a higher court.

Judge Louis Rosenberg issued an order on Dec. 22, 2011, ruling White was ineligible to run for his position because he was improperly registered as a candidate when he ran for office. On Jan. 4, Rosenberg approved White’s request he stay his ruling ordering the state recount commission to certify Democrat

Vop Osili as the winner of the 2010 election until a higher court can review the decision.

White also faces a criminal trial in Hamilton County on Jan. 30 on seven felony charges re-lated to accusations he lied on documents about where he lived during the 2010 primary so he could remain on the Fishers Town Council. A Hamilton County grand jury indicted White in March 2011, but White maintains his inno-cence on the theft and voter fraud charges.

If White loses his job because of a conviction, Gov. Mitch Daniels would appoint his replace-ment – Democrats contend Osili should replace him.

Dominique Ball said Bob Knight is the big-gest name in the history of Indiana sports, and that’s why he’s bringing him to Carmel.

Knight – a Hall of Fame basketball coach who won three national championships leading the Indiana Hoosiers - will come to Authentic Sports Collectibles at Carmel City Center Satur-day. ASC opened Nov. 1 at 715 Hanover Place, and Ball said he has been working on bringing Knight to the store for more than a month.

“I wanted to go big and who’s bigger than Bob Knight?” he said.

The signing is open to members of the public who purchase one of the 500 tickets available. Tickets can be purchased at the store from now until the day of the event, but Ball said waiting un-til the 14th may leave some without a ticket, as he expects media coverage – including an appearance by Knight on The Bob and Tom Show scheduled for this week – to put the tickets in high demand.

Ball said ASC’s contract with Knight pro-hibits him from publicly disclosing the price of each ticket but added that, in his experience, at-tending autograph sessions offers the best prices on signed memorabilia.

“To come witness the guy sign it, that’s the cheapest way to buy it,” he said. “It’s cheaper than buying it retail.”

Attendees are allowed to bring one item per purchased ticket, and Ball said there are very few limitations on what can be presented to Knight to sign. Traditionally, Knight has politely refused to sign two editions of Sports Illustrated covering his firing at IU as well as copies of A Season on the Brink. Aside from that, Ball said, nearly anything is fair game.

“He’ll even sign a chair if you want to bring that,” he said.

Ball said he has many other signings planned for 2012, including appearances by “Mean Joe” Greene, Johnny Bench, Pete Rose, Gale Sayers, Mike Alstott and more. Ball said those seeking more information or to purchase tickets can call him directly at 554-9906.

A Fresh Start for the New YearAmong family law attorneys, January is a peak time for new clients. The first Monday after the holiday break has even earned a nickname known as “Divorce Day”. It isn’t meant to be insensitive, but reflects the real statistics that many couples are motivated after the holidays to seek a solution to their marital difficulties. Separations and divorce filings typically slow down in the months of November and December as spouses attempt to maintain their relationships for the sake of their families and children through the holiday festivities. However, the winter holidays can be very trying for marriages that are already experiencing serious problems. The additional stress created by financial pressures, family dynamics or

unfulfilled expectations can accentuate rather than mend the cracks in a relationship. The long holiday break is often the final straw for many couples who have postponed separating. Once children return to school and spouses return to work, many are resolved to proceed with a fresh start for the new year.

Initiating a divorce may seem overwhelming, but alternatives to traditional litigation provide more options for spouses who are concerned about the emotional and financial burden of the divorce process. After the holiday expenses, some couples may not feel that they can afford to divorce, even if they are struggling with ongoing marital conflict. Remaining in an unhealthy situation can be more even more damaging, especially if parties have attempted counseling and have not been able to repair their marriages. But options such as collaborative law and mediation are methods which are often less costly, financially and emotionally, and empower couples to have more control over the divorce process. It can facilitate the transition into the next stage and help preserve the co-parenting relationship, minimizing some of the negative effects of divorce. The Family Law Practice Group at Harden Jackson LLC offers comprehensive legal services including litigation and collaborative law for clients considering a fresh start and contemplating divorce or separation.

Staying in meant staying out of trouble or potentially bothersome situations for those who attended the inaugural “Family First Night” New Year’s Eve event at the Hamilton County 4-H Grounds, located at 2003 Pleasant St., Noblesville.

“It’s a tremendous benefit for the community to have folks volunteer their time to provide options,” said Lt. Bruce Barnes of the Noblesville Police De-partment. “There’s a lot of different things. What they’re doing is such a tremendous benefit.”

Barnes estimated the event hosted at least 200 people during its free alternative celebration, which began at 7 p.m. and included a variety of games, food, two classic movies and a live feed of the ball drop in Times Square.

“I think we had a very good crowd,” said event coordinator Jim Wafford of Logan Street Signs and Banners. “Our goal was 150 people.”

Wafford worked closely with George and Linda Kristo – George is the executive director of the Hamilton County Council on Alcohol and Other Drugs – to coordinate the event. The Kris-tos have hosted the event in the past but did not hold an alternative party last year.

“It was a crowd George and I had hoped for and we now have another year to promote it,” said Wafford. “George believes it to be (impor-tant) so I think it’s very important. Starting this

year we are going to contin-ue this until I’m no longer alive or someone else takes it over. I want to continue George and Linda’s legacy with this event.”

The New Year’s Eve Party signified the conclusion of the fall classic movie series. Wafford has planned 19 events scheduled for 2012. The Second Friday Classic Movie Series will be held at 8 p.m. in the Hamilton County 4-H Winks Building in January through April and

September to December. During the summer, Waf-ford’s film showing will move to Forest Park on Fridays in June and July.

“I want to expand it and create it as a family event,” he said. “I want people to enjoy family time and if they want to stick around for the movie they can.

They can bring a picnic and play cornhole, bingo, ping pong and checkers. We’ll take some of the games we’ve invested in and share them.”

After his second trip over-the-hill last year, 80-year-old Bill Myers said he got to thinking about what was next on his to-do list.

The Fishers High School Class of 1948 alum, and current Noblesville resident, said he decided he “might like to talk to some young people” about the importance of heroes – something he gained an understanding of, he said, after 20 years of service in the U.S. Air Force.

Teachers at Myers’ alma mater were happy to help out; bringing Myers in to talk to more than 700 U.S. history, government and law education students for a Veterans Day celebration.

Myers said that, while he appreciated the opportunity, he wasn’t quite expecting such an enthusiastic turnout.

“I was scared to death of going down and talking to all those kids,” he said. “But, it was wonderful. It brought me back to see what young people are like. They paid attention and thanked me afterward . . . it was a great experience.”

Silent ServantS“Military heroes don’t talk about being he-

roes,” Myers said. “You get a medal, and no one ever sees it. I think people need to know that everyone in the military is a hero. And then there are decorated heroes. For every medal of honor (recipient), there are 15 people who did just as much, but nobody hears about it.”

Myers retired from the armed forces in 1972 as a master sergeant, 20 years after he enlisted in the Air Force. He earned his share of medals as well, including the meritorious service medal – awarded for outstanding meritorious non-combat achievement or service. At the time, the award was the highest honor given for “just doing your duties … just doing a real good job,” Myers said.

In his speech, My-ers talked about Sgt. Alvin York and 1st Lt. Audie Murphy, the most decorated men in WWI and WWII, respectively. Myers also told stu-dents about Marine Sgt. Dakota Meyer, who received the Medal of Honor – only the third living

recipient since the Vietnam War – for his service in 2009 in the Kunar province of Iraq. Against orders, Myers said, Meyer rushed into hostile territory to evacuate 12 friendly wounded, and provided cover for another 24 Marines and sol-diers to escape. Meyer was awarded the Medal of Honor for his service by President Barack Obama on Sept. 15, 2011.

“That tells kids what real heroes are,” said Myers. “You don’t plan to be one, and a lot of times, you don’t talk about it afterward.”

ConneCting the next generation

“I don’t know that today’s generation knows what war is like,” Myers said. “And war has changed a lot. Very definitely, I don’t think they

know what military service is like.”

In 1951, when Myers enlisted in the Air Force, the U.S. was engaged in the Korean War, and conscripted young men into the military. Enforced conscription, or the draft, was later abolished after its unpopularity during

Noblesville veteran Bill Myers talks about honor, service with younger generation

the Vietnam War.According to Myers, though the

draft was at times unpopular, it gave the general populace a person-al connection to the military, and to wars the country was fighting.

“The military is more limited now,” he said. “In WWII and Ko-rea, everyone knew someone who was in the service. Nowadays, I don’t think people even know that the war is still going on.”

Myers said he’s personally supportive of a two-year mandatory service period, either in the military or another service-to-country program, for men and women directly after high school, which he said would help “build a bridge” be-tween home life and college.

“After two years, they’d know whether they want to go to college or not, or if they should go to college or not,” Myers said. “And I think the government should help them go to college when they’re done. It’d be good for them, and good for the country.”

“Of course, not many mommas are going to say that,” Myers added.

a SeCond retirementMyers retired from the military at the age

of 40, after the service took him around the world: Hokkaido, Japan, Turkey, Denver, and Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, where he worked on the Atlas, Titan and Minuteman missile projects.

At 64, Myers retired again, this time from the postal service. Since then, he’s occupied himself with his family – wife of 61 years Peggy, son Michael and daughter Vicki (“They’re air force brats,” Myers said) – and his lifelong hobby: model railroading.

“I got up in an engine for the first time when I was 4 years old,” Myers said. “My daddy was a railroader, my uncles were. We used to live down by the tracks by the Nickel Plate in Fishers.”

Myers’ current project, a 34 square-foot model he’s dubbed the “Mudsock Belt Railroad,” after his native Fishers, occupies much of his workshop – which he’s marked with a sign over the door declaring it the “Dog House.” Myers also keeps busy with his animals: a cat, dogs, a donkey and three horses, which he calls his “daughters.”

Myers says he’s a regular guy who just did his duty in the service. But, he says, the important thing to remember is that heroes were, too.

“I dare say not one of the several hundred people who’ve gotten the Medal of Honor ever planned to get it,” said Myers. “They just had a situation that needed to be taken care of, and did what needed to be done.”

Myers was the Air Force’s top blood donor while serving in Hokkaido, Japan.

Before the new guidelines, a Pap test typically was part of a woman’s annual exam, which also includes a breast and pelvic exam— two important screenings that you still need, even though you probably do not need an annual Pap test.

The best way to find out how often you should be having this important cervical cancer screening is to talk to your healthcare provider. In the meantime, here is a look at the basics of the guidelines:

• The age at which you get your first Pap is 21. Formerly, women were advised to get their first Pap within three years of becoming sexually active. But HPV is a virus that leads to most abnormal Paps. Although certain strains of this virus lead to cervical cancer, most go away on their own. Your body naturally fights them off. Waiting until you are 21 gives your immune system a chance to work its magic and prevents unnecessary procedures.

• Anywomanwhonolongerhasacervix because of a hysterectomy (removing the cervix isn’t always part of a hysterectomy) and who has never had an abnormal Pap smear doesn’t need Paps anymore. However, if you have your ovaries, you still need to have a pelvic and breast exam every year.

• Womenbetweentheagesof21and30 need to have a Pap every two years. Remember, this does not mean you can skip a yearly exam, which also includes a pelvic and breast exam, and a chance to address other female issues.

• Aroundage65-70, you may be able to stop having Paps. If you have had three normal Paps and no abnormal Paps in the past 10 years, you might be able to stop. Talk to your healthcare provider.

To schedule an appointment or for help finding a healthcare provider, call the Center for Women’s Health, located at St.Vincent Medical Center Northeast at 317-415-9010.

Literally every system in our bodies is healthier with regular exercise. We should strive to get at least 30 to 60 minutes of vigorous exercise every day. Other than smoking or other substance abuse, leading a sedentary life is the unhealthi-est thing you can do. To reduce healthcare costs, many employers are creating financial motivation for people to get active – hitting people in their wallets if they refuse to make exercise a priority.

So, keep some things in mind as you begin to exercise routinely.

To burn fat from around the midsection or hips, do NOT focus on exercises that “target” those particular areas … it doesn’t work that way. Working those muscles is good but they will still be covered up by the fat, so have realistic expecta-tions. Fat is stored calories; get rid of it by doing ANY exercises that burn calories effectively.

Perhaps the best exercise for the average person is not running, but instead the stair climber, espe-cially taking two steps at a time. It combines an excellent cardiovascular workout while building leg muscle (by having to work against gravity) with very low impact and joint stress. Building muscle helps the body burn more fat 24 hours a

day and helps maintain strength, and therefore independence with aging. As adults, we are get-ting weaker every day unless we are actively work-ing to build muscle. Running will burn calories, but it is hard on many joints and is more likely to break down muscle than build it.

Focus on weight-bearing exercises with functional movements, promoting balance and helping prevent osteoporosis. Core strength is extremely important for all of us for many rea-sons. Emphasize the eccentric (muscle length-ening) phase of any type of weight lifting by taking about four to five times as long to lower the weight as to lift it. This gives even better results with using less weight, reducing injuries and actually stimulating tendon healing. Keep in mind stretching right before exercise has consistently shown NOT to prevent injuries. A gradual warm up is much more important, then stretch either during or after your workout, which is much more effective.

Exercise in 2012? Remember these tips

Bryan Mayol, MD, IU Health Physicians Sports Medicine, is a guest columnist located at IU Health Saxony Hospital in Fishers. You may e-mail him at [email protected]

» Go half and half – Commit to mixing treats, half and half, with something harm-less or healthful. Examples? Mix regular soda with diet soda or, better, seltzer or club soda. Mix sweetened yogurt with plain yogurt. Mix any kind of fruit juice with plain water or seltzer, and so forth. After a few weeks of this - if you remain diligent - you will find that your tolerance for sweetness declines. Then cut down to three-quarters and one-quarter. Eventually, the things you used to love will taste cloyingly sweet.

Hot Hair Ornaments

When planning out your fashion wardrobe for the winter, don't just concentrate on your clothing. Accessorizing starts from the top down, and that includes a bold piece for your hair. This season, pick up a headband with any type of ornamentation, a bow, feather or jewels, to make the perfect statement. Small barrettes with rhinestones or bright ribbon can also compliment almost any look. Stop in Salon 01 and check out their latest line of hair fashion accessories to complete your cold weather look!

Our New Year Resolutions for Men2012 promises to be quite the year for fashion. Updating your look and refreshing your usual routine will make it easy to embrace the latest trends. Here are a few tips for transitioning in style for 2012.

Clean Out Your Products:Whether it’s that bottle of Advil in your medicine cabinet or an old jar of aftershave, products have an expiration date that should not be ignored. Check your products for their date and toss anything expired!Get a New Cut:Update your look with a fresh cut for the new year. Salon 01’s talented men’s stylists, Norma and Ernst, are incredible at finding your signature cut that is just right for you. Wear SPF Everyday:Skin cancer is serious and highly preventable with proper awareness. Protect yourself every single day with a moisturizer/SPF combo. Men often neglect preventative treatments but we can change this trend in 2012! Stock up on your sunscreen! Salon 01 sells Jack Black sunscreen for me.Treat Yourself to a Hot Lather Shave Each Month:Ernst Buckingham has over 22 years experience in men’s work. He heads up our barber services in the salon. Treat yourself monthly to a hot lather shave from Ernst and see your skin change before your eyes. A quality shave is the perfect base for taking your look from scruffy to polished.

Winter SkincareWhile most of us focus on protecting skin in the summer, it is important not to neglect your regimen during the winter. Here are five tips for maintaining healthy skin through the colder months:

1. Continue to use SPF! Use at least SPF 15 to continue to protect your skin.2. Exfoliate skin twice a week. This can help remove dry skin and uneven tone caused by exposure to the sun. 3. Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Winter air is drier without the humidity of summer, so your skin needs extra nourishment to stay healthy. 4. To get rid of chapped lips, carry around a trusty tube of balm or Chapstick. Exfoliating lips lightly with a toothbrush can also get rid of dead skin on your pucker. 5. Stay hydrated and exercise!

REMODElIng By larry greene

ORIGINAL KITCHEN: This home was built in 1985 in the Thistlewood subdi-vision on the west side of Carmel. The homeowner has lived in the home since 2000. When asked why they remodeled, their response was, “It was time to update. We always hang out in the kitchen and we’ve been thinking about remodeling for a couple of years. We like the neighborhood and our neighbors and we wanted to stay put!”

REMOVING WALL AND BULKHEADS: The structural engineer determined the wall separat-ing the kitchen from the family room was non-load bearing. This made it economical to com-pletely remove the wall and open up the two rooms. The existing carpet in the family room was removed and new prefinished hardwood flooring was installed. “We are so glad we had the wall taken down between the kitchen and the family room. What a dramatic difference it makes in opening up the entire house.” The existing bulkheads in the kitchen were removed and the drywall was patched and the lighting was relocated. This allowed the new wall cabi-nets to be extended completely to the ceiling including decorative two-piece crown molding.

NEW CABINETS AND MORE STORAGE: The new maple cabinets are painted in cashmere white with raised panel full-overlay doors and flat slab drawers, with dovetail drawer boxes and full-extension drawer glides. Other updates include a stone-tile backsplash, under cabinet lighting, pendants over the peninsula and dark granite countertops. The homeowner com-mented, “We’ve increased our storage capacity tremendously. We had the peninsula updated with some beautiful new pendant light fixtures.”

FINAL RESULT: The homeowner commented, “Our newly remodeled kitchen area is warm and inviting. The designers were able to capture the reflection of our style. Our home seems more up-to-date and really brings our whole house together. We absolutely love it!”
