Take advantage of abundant fall apples without the
hassle of making pie crust. This flavorful cake provides
antioxidants from the apples and cranberries, a nice
amount of fiber and almost no saturated fat. It’s great
with a scoop of plain yogurt. Serves 12.
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 2 eggs
• 1 T. lemon juice
• 1⁄2 c. sugar
• 1 T. maple syrup
• 1⁄2 c. canola oil
• 2 tsp. baking powder
• 1⁄2 c. honey
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 T. vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2 baking apples, diced
• 1⁄4 c. dried cranberries
• 1⁄4 c. walnuts chopped
• 1 c. each whole wheat and white flour
Use a 9” diameter spring-form pan. Oil and flour the pan
and sides. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Dice the apples
and mix with walnuts, dried cranberries, cinnamon, lemon
juice and maple syrup. Set aside. Using a whisk or
electric beater, beat the eggs with the sugar until creamy.
Then beat in the oil, honey, and extract. Sift together the
baking powder, baking soda, salt and flour. Add gradually
to the egg and honey mixture, beating until smooth. Pour
batter into pan and spoon apple mixture on top. Bake at
350 degrees for one hour, or until center of cake springs
back when lightly touched. Cool before serving.

By Doris A. Black
When considering a new career, you don’t have to make
a complete break from your current field. If you truly love
the field you are in, then consider approaching it from a
different angle. For example, consider sales instead of
management.
ith mass layoffs and downsizing, changing careers
may become a matter of survival for many of us.
Starting over in a new field is not always easy, but with
passion and persistence, it can be done without a major loss of
income or lifestyle.
There are always stories about people who have been out of work
for a year or more, and even though there are no jobs available
in their chosen fields, they refuse to consider switching careers.
Sure, it is difficult to think about starting over after putting years
into a chosen profession, but it’s not impossible. A new career
will provide you not only with the opportunity to learn new skills
but with the chance to use some of the skills you have honed
for so many years.
Our parents were of a generation where if they were lucky, they
could stay in the same job throughout most of their life. The
unlucky ones, like Harry S. Truman, changed careers many
times. Truman started off as a railroad timekeeper and then went
into banking as a clerk. He then tried his hand at farming and later
opened a men’s clothing store, which failed. Eventually Truman
turned to politics and became a judge, senator, vice president
of the United States and eventually president. If Truman had
remained in the railroad business, he would have never realized
his true potential.
Many people see unemployment as an opportunity to start
their own business or enter a field they’ve always dreamed of
working in, even if that means going back to school. Over the
past several years, colleges across the country have seen an
increase in the number of older adults returning to school to
learn new marketable skills. As a matter of fact, older adults
make excellent students. They are focused, goal-oriented and
appreciative of the opportunity to learn. It is not unusual to see
an older student at the top of the class in grades.
Another approach to choosing a new career is to investigate
which fields are considered in high need or are predicted
to have a large growth rate in the future. According to the
Occupational Outlook handbook, the computer fields will
continue to grow the most. Specifically mentioned are
computer software engineers, support specialists, system
and database administrators, and data communications
specialists. The fastest-growing non-computer field is
predicted to be personal and home care aides, followed
closely by medical assistants.
The service occupations are predicted to have the next
highest rate of growth with health care support positions
topping the list in this category. Food preparation and food
service-related positions are also expected to see higherthan-average increases.
In management, it is once again the computer-related
positions that will see the biggest increase, such as
information systems managers. Operations managers,
general managers and public relations managers will also
see a sharp increase.
In the office support category, desktop publishing positions
are expected to increase at a fast rate. If you are creative
and enjoy working with computers, this could be your next
career.
How do you make the switch to a new career? Talk to
people everywhere you go. Experts say 80% of all jobs
are gained through networking — it’s who you know or at
least talk to that counts.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS),
employment is projected to increase by 3.3 million jobs
per year for the next seven years. Although jobs will be
available at all education levels, the BLS predicts that
the growth rates will be highest in occupations requiring
specialized training with either vocational certificates or
associate’s degrees. However, having a college degree
will not guarantee you a job — it is the work-related skills
that will carry you the farthest.

Sheridan Historical Society, Sheridan Library,
103 W 1st Street, Sheridan, IN - The Sheridan
Historical Society has on loan the exhibit “The
Faces of Lincoln” which is being featured at the Sheridan
Library. In January 2003, the Indiana Historical Society acquired
the Jack Smith and Daniel R. Weinberg Lincoln collections.
Combined with other IHS holdings, these materials create one
of the premier Lincoln print collections in the nation. The Faces
of Lincoln exhibit is based on the Indiana Historical Society’s
extensive collection and initially traveled the state on the
Indiana History Train in October of 2004 and 2005. The Faces
of Lincoln traveling exhibit is comprised of three independent
parts, each an exhibit unto itself. The exhibit includes a copy
of The Life of Lincoln compact disk that will enhance the
programmatic and educational possibilities for the borrower.
The CD includes a 50-minute video that chronicles President
Abraham Lincoln’s life from his early years to his assassination
and its aftermath. During the video, users are able to stop and
examine selected topics in more depth, including conserving
primary sources, Lincoln photography, political cartoons, a
Civil War time line, the Lincoln family, the first reading of the
Emancipation Proclamation, Lincoln’s deathbed, reporting the
assassination, and Lincoln as icon. For more information (317)

By Ronda Addy
No matter what your age, dating can be scary. For seniors
who want to start dating again after a long gap, it can be
downright terrifying. Most have already had the one love
of their life and are just looking for some companionship.
One way to go about finding this is to use an online dating
service.
Joining an online dating service will reduce the time and effort
required to find that special person. When you sign up, you
need to be honest about yourself. Don’t lie about your age
or send a photo of yourself from five years ago. Doing so will
make any first meetings awkward.
You also need to be honest about your intentions. Are you
interested in just getting to know someone as a friend, or are
you looking for a long-term relationship? Would you consider
marriage?
After signing up for the online service, you will have profiles
to choose from. You may contact the person who interests
you by e-mail, instant messaging or using a video or web
cam before your actual date. Remember the purpose of a
first date is to see if you are interested in a second date, so
plan an activity that will allow you to get to know the person.
Go someplace public and do something fun. If you plan to
eat, choose someplace casual where the pressure won’t be
as great.
Safety is always an issue when dating, especially on a
first date with someone you hardly know. Don’t give out
your address or phone number or disclose any financial
information. Take things slow. Should declarations of love
come right away, be leery of continuing the relationship. Let
someone else know where you are going and whom you are
meeting. If you feel uncomfortable with the person at any
point, don’t be afraid to leave.
Enrolling in an online dating service can be fun. You can
meet some nice people and make some lifelong friendships
if nothing else. Just remember to use common sense when
interacting with strangers and play it safe, and you are sure
to have a good time and perhaps even find another the
second time around.

he practice of body cleansing or
detoxification has been around
for thousands of years. In fact,
Hippocrates, the father of medicine,
believed that one needed knowledge
of the body as a whole in order to cure
it and that disease could be caused by
improper diet and exercise as well as
age, climate and season. Among all
doctors, “balancing the humors” was
standard practice, with detoxification
serving as the foundation of healing.
Over time, the concept changed from
treating the whole body to treating
each part of the body separately.
This new science-based medicine,
or allopathic medicine, emphasized
science, technology and systems.
Today, alternative medicine is returning
to treating the body as a whole, with
symptoms serving as a sign of an
imbalance. One of the best ways to
regain balance is by cleansing the
body of toxins.
The body is constantly being exposed
to chemicals through food, air, water
and everyday stress. All of this leads
to a buildup of toxins in the body that
can interfere with the immune system and the function of cells
in the body. A bad diet, for example, can result in incomplete
digestion of food, which can result in a thick, mucous-like layer
forming in the intestines, which can result in the reproduction
of microbes and parasites, which can result in disease.
Symptoms that indicate a person could be a candidate for an
internal cleansing include:
• Exhaustion upon waking up
• Sluggishness all day
• Bloating
• Lightheadedness
• Depression
• Joint or muscle aches
• Blurred vision
• Low resistance to colds and infections
• Difficult periods and PMS
or fasting for a few days to reduce
the body’s food digestion and waste
processing.
Most internal cleansings result
in a reduction in body toxins, a
loss of excess water and weight,
blood purification, an increase in
oxygenation of the tissue, a release
of chemicals stored in fat and other
tissues, and a cleansing of the liver,
colon and kidneys. Fringe benefits
include relief for acne, allergies,
colitis and Crohn’s disease, as
well as renewed energy, clearer
thinking, a better sense of well being,
smoother digestion and elimination,
and more efficient absorption and
use of nutrients. Side effects may
include minor gastrointestinal
problems, temporary gas or flulike symptoms like a runny nose or
sneezing. These should only last a
week to 10 days, and in the event
they persist, a doctor should be
consulted.
Throughout an internal cleansing,
a change in diet is recommended.
A diet high in fiber with fruits, whole grains and vegetables,
and easier-to-digest proteins, like fish, chicken and turkey, is
a must. Excessive amounts of red meat and sugary snacks
are a no-no. Drinking eight to 10 glasses of water a day will
help with the elimination of toxins.
After a person has undergone an internal cleansing, there
are some things they can do to prevent toxins from building
up again. These include:
• Exercising regularly
• Drinking lots of water every day
• Eating foods rich in fiber and vitamins B and C
• Consuming more organic foods
• Avoiding foods with additives
• Limiting the intake of red meat
• Supplementing the diet with a high-potency multiple-vitamin
mineral supplement
• Avoiding alcohol
Any or all of these symptoms could be the body’s way of saying
that it is in need of an internal cleansing.
• Reducing exposure to strong cleaning materials and
solvents
There are two types of internal cleansing: single organ and
whole body. The most common single organs targeted for
cleansing include the colon, the liver and the kidneys. Colon
cleansing relies on the use of fiber and herbal supplements
to eliminate toxins; liver cleansing on the use of specific
foods; kidney cleansing on the use of herbs, supplements and
juices. Whole body cleansing involves consuming bitter herbs
designed to make the body an inhospitable place for parasites
• Stopping smoking and avoiding second-hand smoke
There are five areas in the body designed to handle
elimination of toxins. They are the bowels, kidneys, skin,
lungs, liver and lymphatic system. These systems are
designed to work together to eliminate toxins from the body,
but like everything else, they may occasionally need a little
help. That’s where body cleansing comes in.

Kingdom’s Kloset
Such support includes legal services and respite care
to transportation and lawn maintenance—anything to
make life more manageable, safe, and filled with a
sense of love. They also have purchased a home in
Hamilton County for foster siblings with the capacity
to house up to eight children, allowing brothers and
sisters to remain intact as they negotiate the foster
care system.

The strength of a community can be measured by
how it responds to its most impoverished citizens. This
is as true for our global community, where the failure
to provide tools to sustain the most basic qualities of
life for every human being diminishes us all. As it is
for our local community, where, though easier to be
more aware of those in need, we are also more likely
to believe that responsibility rests elsewhere. Agape
Families is one Central Indiana organization that
meets responsibility face-to-face, one child at a time.
Recognizing an often-unacknowledged segment of our
population, recognizing that hope, care, tenderness and
compassion are still the best gestures one can make
when faced with a challenge.
Some of the most unacknowledged members of our
community are the area’s foster children. Often the
foster care system is the first to face budget cuts
and staff turnover, leaving children in need without
resources and without hope. Agape Families, Inc.,
however, inspires hope by focusing the energies of the
community directly on these children in need of care
and acknowledgement.
Agape Families, Inc. is a volunteer-led organization
founded in 2006 by Krista Davis whose stated mission is
to transform the troubled lives of abused and neglected
children by showing them unconditional love in a safe
and nurturing home, using the gifts and talents of the
community. Agape Families works with foster families
and provides support to foster parents and their children.
18 The Gray Eagle Post . www.grayeaglehoa.org . January 2009
Agape Families works to mobilize members of the
community to volunteer in meaningful ways; every
volunteer responds to a need and does so with an open
heart. Many work for Kingdom’s Kloset, an outreach
program that addresses the immediate clothing needs
of children in foster care. Many children leave abusive
and neglectful situations with nothing more than the
clothes on their backs. Kingdom’s Kloset solicits and
collects clothing donations from area residents and
businesses. They organize volunteers to put together
personalized, handmade duffle bags that contain a
week’s worth of new or gently used clothing for each
child. More than 1300 duffle bags have been delivered
to newly placed foster children since Kingdom’s
Kloset’s inception.
All of Agape Families’ endeavors stem from the
simple goal of helping children in need discover and
experience positive nurturing environments from
which they can develop and grow into compassionate
adults. This is how strong and vital communities are
fashioned—through work and responsibility. Through
understanding that the way we grow as individuals is
by growing as a community, the way we take care of
ourselves is by taking care of each other.
For more information about Kingdom’s Kloset please
contact Shannon Pauwels at 336-7018. Donations
can be dropped off at the Carmel Self Storage at 550
West Carmel Drive or at Kingdom’s Kloset’s Fishers
and Geist locations.

Lawn Care
Industry Expert
ORGANIC LAWN CARE? (PART 1)
By Robert Stalets, President, Green-Scene, Inc.
Being “green” and environmentally friendly is
part of today’s society. When being “green” and
lawn care meet there is always some company
trying to utilize the trend. If the facts are
known, most lawn care companies are already
environmentally friendly from the standards
forced upon them.
Over the last 20 years, the EPA restructured
their requirements for all the lawn care chemicals to meet
very strict environmental standards. No longer, when used
properly, do any lawn care chemicals, used either by a
professional service or purchased retail, contaminate soil,
reach well water, etc. The EPA makes no secret to the fact
that far more damage occurs to the environment from the
homeowner doing it themselves than from a professional,
licensed service company.
20 The Gray Eagle Post . www.grayeaglehoa.org . January 2009
“Organic” lawn care is a deceptive term often leading one
to believe it is somehow better or safer. The term “organic”
means to have a carbon base - which is not hard to find in
almost any chemical compound. For this reason anyone
could use the term organic and literally be applying nothing
different than anyone else. The term natural means a raw
bi-product taken directly from nature, (worm castings, chicken
manure, cow manure, etc). These natural products do have
bi-products that a traditional fertilizer could never have;
yet the bottom line of the extreme cost versus the lack of a
consumer visually recognizing any benefit makes the use of
these products almost non-existent.

wonderful Holiday Season.

ou always knew this
day would come,
but it seems to have
come much faster than you
expected. Age is marching
across your face, and fine
lines, wrinkles and age spots
are cropping up everywhere.
You definitely aren’t ready for
a facelift, but you would like a little
something to soften those lines and
wrinkles and lighten those age spots. It’s
time to schedule an appointment with a plastic
surgeon and discuss all of your options, including chemical
peels.
Because they bleach the skin somewhat, chemical peels work
best for fair-haired, fair-skinned people. However, individuals
with darker hair and skin may have a chemical peel. There
are three general types of chemical peels: alphahydroxy
acids (AHA), trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and phenol. These
can be done in various stages and strengths.
AHA chemical peels use glycolic, lactic or fruit acids to
improve the look and feel of facial skin, making it brighter and
smoother. They work best for acne, dryness, fine wrinkles
and uneven pigmentation. Recovery is quick. Side effects
may include crustiness, irritation, redness and stinging.
TCA chemical peels use trichloroacetic acid to improve the
look and feel of facial skin, making it fresher and smoother.
They work best for treating fine wrinkles, pigment problems
and superficial blemishes. Recovery is fairly quick. Side
effects may include crustiness, irritation, redness, stinging
and swelling.
Phenol chemical peels use phenol to dramatically
improve the look and feel of facial skin. They work
best for treating blotchiness, coarse wrinkles,
damaged skin and pre-cancerous growths.
Because of the strength of the treatment, recovery
can take several months. The results,
however, generally last for a long time.
Side effects may include crustiness,
irritation, redness, stinging and
swelling. Patients may be restricted
to a liquid diet for a few days.
Although some states do not require
a professional to have a medical
degree to perform a chemical peel,
patients should look for a qualified
plastic surgeon. The surgeon will be
able to examine the patient’s face and
determine the best course of treatment
for them. It could be a series of AHA chemical peels
or one phenol peel. They will also advise the patient
on the risks involved and prepare them for what lies
ahead. Depending upon what they recommend, the
patient may need to do some things beforehand to prepare
their skin for the procedure.
Because they involve the use of chemicals, peels can be
painful. Should you decide to get one, make sure you know
what you are getting into. They are a bit more involved than
your average facial. When all is said and done, however, you
will look and feel years younger.

Facial Plastic Surgery
Industry Expert
Gifts That Will Be Appreciated
By Catherine Winslow, M.D., F.A.C.S.
Catherine
Winslow
I would be remiss if I didn’t address the ever
sinking economy and ways to save even at
your plastic surgeon’s office! Even though
we don’t have as much discretionary funds
to play with, there are still ways to keep your
face gorgeous and not break the bank (those
that are still in business that is!).
1. Buy packages instead of individual
treatments. The cost per treatment is
discounted by 10-30%.
2. Look into a TCA Chemical Peel instead of expensive laser
treatments such as Fraxel, Thermage or CO2. The TCA is
still my favorite and the most reliable safe treatment to tighten
skin, alleviate sun damage, lessen and even eliminate fine
lines/wrinkles and basically rejuvenate your whole face. And,
unlike laser treatments that can be up to 4 times the price, it
is proven to work and has far less risk.
3. Surgery instead of minimally invasive procedures? Doesn’t
sound as sexy, but surgical procedures will last a decade
or more- compared to 6-12 months with minimally invasive
surgery. The cost is about the same for a mini-lift as for a
Threadlift, the results last longer and are very natural.
4. Care Credit. 18 months with NO interest sounds too good
to be true- but isn’t. Better than any credit card deal you can
get, financing up to 5 years is also an option.
5. Look for special discounts on fillers and Botox and prepurchase. You can save hundreds with planning ahead!
The economy will come back to life soon, but until then a little
planning can help your pocketbook!
