Construction firms struggle to find workers Editor’s note: This story is the result of months of research and interviews conducted through a Hamilton County Leadership Academy group project. Some of the information and quotes are taken from a JoyPowered Workspace Podcast, which also was part of the project. Listen to the podcast at joypowered.podbean.com/e/ careers-without-college/. By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com You don’t have to look far to see that construction is booming in EMPLOYMENT Hamilton County. From Midtown in Carmel to The Yard in Fishers to neighborhoods popping up throughout Westfield, new buildings and developments quickly are changing the landscape. Although economic conditions are ripe for growth, they’re creating difficulties for many construction companies, which are struggling to find and retain enough workers Stephan to keep up with demand. And in places like Hamilton County, experts say a long-held mindset that four years in college naturally follows high school keeps many young people from even considering a job in the trades, which include careers that can be just as lucrative as some that require a degree — without all the student loan debt. “It’s really about a lack of education and understanding what the options and possibilities are, and sometimes there are stigmas associated with that, especially in a highly educated community with lots of professionals and people who went to college,” said Melinda Stephan, a college and career counselor at Carmel High School. “I think sometimes people don’t know what the options are, and what you don’t know can be kind of scary sometimes.” Meanwhile, construction costs and timelines continue to expand as the industry deals with the labor shortage. According to the Associated General Contractors of Amer-
ica, 72 percent of contractors in Indiana are having trouble finding skilled trade workers and 83 percent said they need to hire more workers because business is booming.
‘The gap continues to widen’
For David Decker, attending college was the “next expected step in growing into an adult” after high school. He did well at first, but after struggling to find ways to apply what he was learning, he dropped out and started his own business. Now, the Fishers resident is the founder and CEO of ACo, a full-service kitchen, bath and flooring dealer in Carmel. He’s troubled by the statistic that 60 percent of students who enroll in four-year college programs don’t graduate within six years, and he’s doing something about it. Decker is launching Hub & Spoke, a design center that will include a makerspace, warehouse, co-working and retailers. One of it’s main goals, however, is to educate students — and the community at-large — about the variety of jobs available in homebuilding and design industries and provide a place for them to explore related careers in a handson environment. The 86,000-square-foot center is set to open in February 2020 along the proposed Nickel Plate Trail in Fishers. “Almost half of the workforce in the skilled trades is over 45 years old, so they’re nearing retirement and there’s not really a big push for new kids to come in. You can see the gap just continues to widen,” Decker said. “There’s this real stigma around the industry. The kids don’t realize those opportunities are there.” Carmel-based Mattingly Concrete owner Will Mattingly, who didn’t attend college, said his business, like so many others, has struggled to attract young workers because they often don’t realize the immediate earning potential in the field. He’s started offering scholarships to students interested in studying construction who come work for the company in the summer. “The hope is to open the eyes of some of these young people to show them maybe they can make a good living and live in a
nice neighborhood and have the white picket fence and everything doing a trade,” said Mattingly, a Carmel resident.
Open to opportunities As the construction industry does what it can to promote the benefits of a career in the trades to young workers, several high schools in Hamilton County also are trying to get the message out. At Westfield High School, students interested in construction have the opportunity to build a house inside Haberman the school each semester. In Noblesville, the district’s expansive internship program includes partnerships with several construction companies to give interested students a taste of those careers. At CHS, Stephan said she tries to get students to evaluate their interests and strengths before they make a decision about what to do after graduation. Once they better understand who they are, she can help guide them through options after high school, whether that includes a career in construction or not. “As they start to figure out what they’re good at and what they want to do, that’s where the conversation about college or not (going to) college comes in,” she said. Noblesville resident Chuck Haberman, leader of workforce development at Gaylor Electric, said that only 15 to 20 percent of the more than 1,200 employees at his company have a four-year college degree. He said it’s a “big misconception” that working in construction is a fallback if other plans don’t work out. Gaylor is always seeking new workers and provides training and support to help them reach their career goals. “In the end, anybody can do it if they’re willing to take the time to learn it and put in the effort to really master the craft,” he said. “It can be really rewarding for a very long time.” HCLA group project members are Ann Marie Shambaugh, Carla Hill, Peggy Hogan, Justin Furr, Gary Sexton and Rachel Sorvig.

History on Tap returns to Conner Prairie By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com History on Tap, a popular event at Conner Prairie geared toward THINGS TO DO adults, will return May 31 for its eighth year. “It offers the opportunity to experience a craft beer festival and the beautiful grounds and engage in programs they typically wouldn’t have the opportunity to engage with at Conner Prairie,” said Andrew Collins, research and strategic analytics manager. “Since the event is 21-plus, it allows interpreters and staff to get creative and engage an entirely adult audience.” Approximately 35 breweries are expected to participate. Collins said the event is opening up to all of Prairietown this year. “The event just continues to grow both in scope and in depth,” Collins said. “It is planned by the Horizon Council, which is Conner Prairie’s young professional group. It was one of the first events that group brainstormed and executed, and there were 300 attendees the first year to over 1,500 last year. We are hoping to equip 2,000 this year.”

May is National Bike Safety Month, and the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office is staffing a bike patrol that PUBLIC SAFETY teaches. “With the weather warming up and biking becoming more prevalent, we’re seeing more bike accidents,” Deputy Kevin Neal said. “We can’t stress enough the importance of wearing a helmet as well as checking for loose chains, flat tires and improperly adjusted seats.” The Sheriff’s Office’s Bike Patrol was created to patrol the county’s 12 parks.
The team is made up of 13 deputies, each equipped with their own bicycle and riding equipment. Each of their patrol vehicles also have special mounts to enable deputies to take the bicycle on patrol. “Our goal is to provide the public and youth with a more personable outlook of the police,” Sheriff Dennis Quakenbush said. “Being out and about on bikes makes our deputies far more approachable.” Deputies also teach kids the basics of bike safety at bike rodeos conducted at area schools and churches.

Fishers linebacker Brown earns honor By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Fishers High School linebacker Geoffrey Brown is buildACCOMPLISHMENT ing a name for himself. Brown was selected as one of The Griddy Awards’ Prime Time 25 selections, recognizing the top juniors in the state. Brown will be featured on the 2019 Indiana Football Digest cover with the other top juniors. “It shows my hard work has paid off and I am recognized for what I’ve done or will do in the future,” Brown said. Brown was honored at the 2019 Griddy Awards Banquet, which was held April 28 at the Indiana Farm Bureau Football Center, the Indianapolis Colts practice facility. Brown became a starter halfway through his sophomore year. As a junior, he led the Tigers with 112 total tackles, including 88 solos. The 6-foot-1, 220-pounder had 16 tackles for loss, five quarterback sacks and a school-record seven fumble recoveries for a single season. “He’s among our career-leading tacklers with a season to go,” Fishers coach Rick Wimmer said. “He’s very active. He gets to the football quickly. He diagnoses plays very quickly and reacts. When he hits them, guys usually go backwards. He’s a very physical player.” Brown said he made significant strides from his sophomore season. “Since I’m the (middle linebacker) I have to call the plays, so I have to remember that and where everyone is supposed to go,” Brown said. “I read plays better and get to the ball faster.” The Prime 25 is based on onfield performance, academics and community work. Brown, who has a 3.6 grade point average, assists with the school’s youth

He has an offer from NCAA Division II Northwood University. “(Coaches) would like to see him at camp and to see him run and see how he moves, which they can see at evaluation camps,” Wimmer said. “That will be important for him this summer.”

DISPATCHES Grant to fund road projects – INDOT has awarded Hamilton County $719,285 as part of its Community Crossings Matching Grant Fund Program. The county will use the money to resurface various deteriorated areas along 146th Street, primarily the intersection of 146th and Hazel Dell Road. This funding will also be used to resurface 196th Street from Promise Road to State Road 13 in Wayne Township. The grant will fund 50 percent of the construction up to the awarded amount. Hamilton County is responsible for funding the rest. Work is tentatively set to start in August.
Parks, police partnering – Fishers Parks and Recreation will partner with the Fishers Police Dept. to launch a new public safety program designed to enhance the overall safety in city parks. Park Watch will give individuals, as well as groups, the opportunity to assist the City of Fishers. While in the parks, volunteers will use their eyes and ears to detect concerns and then report those concerns to the appropriate department. Park Watch volunteers will be watchful for suspicious activity, including people or groups of people behaving inappropriately, vehicles occupied
for extended periods of time, reckless driving or people in the parks after dark. The police department considers any unusual activity to be suspicious activity. In order to afford police officers the best chance to locate and identify the suspicious persons, all suspicious activity must be reported immediately by calling 9-1-1. For non-immediate issues such as general maintenance, damage to property or trash, volunteers should contact The Hamilton County Dispatch Center at 317-773-1282 or Fishers Parks and Recreation at 317-595-3150 during normal business hours to report issues that
can be addressed later.

Fishers High School graduate profile: Nicole Kistler By Desiree Williams news@currentinfishers.com
A: I miss going to football games on Friday evenings and then going to Steak ‘n Shake with my friends afterward.
Nicole Kistler, 24, is a 2013 graduate of Fishers High School. She EDUCATION studied nursing at Purdue University and is now a registered nurse in the Surgical and Liver ICU at Houston Methodist Hospital in Texas. Q: What was your favorite subject in high school and why? A: I really enjoyed math while in high school because it was one of my best subjects, which is ironic because my current profession does not involve a ton of math. Q: Who has been your most influential teacher? A: I had many influential teachers through school, and I believe I was able to achieve so much while in school because each teacher truly wanted to see you do well and succeed. Most notably, Mrs. O’Haver and Mrs. Deal, the Fishers High School nurses, were very influential and encouraging when I was debating whether or not to go to nursing school.
Q: Can you tell me about your collegiate experiences? A: While in school, I was a member of Alpha Chi Omega, worked as a peer consultant for the Center for Career Opportunities, was president of the Nursing Student Council, participated in the Purdue Relay for Life, and served as a host for the Old Master’s Program. I also had the amazing opportunity to study abroad two different summers, in Italy and Ireland, and worked in Houston for an internship prior to my senior year of college, which is ultimately where I ended up accepting a job post-graduation.

HSE lacrosse teammates to play for UIndy By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
OUR PROMISE A smile, firm handshake and quality, honest work. From left, Hamilton Southeastern lacrosse players Evan Boer, Cam Smith, Cam Peach, L.H. Bond, Timmy Mathioudakis and HSE coach Scott Beesley. The players plan to play in college. (Submitted photo)
“It’s was one more person that I know and one more player that I trust to be there,” Peach said. Mathioudakis and Peach are not starting off with scholarship aid but will have the opportunity to earn some. Peach has been playing lacrosse since fourth grade. “My brother (Christian) started playing, and I thought it was cool,” Peach said. “I stuck with it because it’s really fast-paced. There is really nothing else like it.” Others Hamilton Southeastern players making official college commitments are
Jeorgia Templin, tennis, Ohio Northern University; Julia Patras, volleyball, DePauw University; Taylor Shelton, volleyball, Indiana State University; Rachel Harris, lacrosse, Carthage College; Avery Eichler, lacrosse, Davenport University; Hannah Pugh, swimming, Butler University; LH Bond, lacrosse, Monmouth College; Isaac Abeo, football, Indiana Wesleyan University: Noah Smith, basketball, Indiana Wesleyan University; Zach Petersen, football, Wabash College; Evan Boer, lacrosse, Keiser University; Trent Williams, football, Anderson University.
LIC# CO51300008
Timothy Mathioudakis got a late introduction to lacrosse. COLLEGE “My best friend, Tony Cassiere, was getting on me for so long to play,” Mathioudakis said. “He said he thought I had good hand-eye coordination and if I went there, we would eventually be able to win the state championship, which we did last year.” A senior goalie, Mathioudakis started playing as a sophomore and now plans to play in college. Mathioudakis will join HSE teammate Cam Peach on the University of Indianapolis lacrosse team next season. The duo is currently focused on repeating as Indiana High School Lacrosse Association state champions. Mathioudakis said he had other offers but chose to either go to UIndy or attend Ball State and not play lacrosse, which is a club sport at Ball State. Peach, a midfielder, plans to major in criminal justice and wants to become a special agent for the FBI. He said he was excited when Mathioudakis committed after him.

Janus celebrates four decades of service in Hamilton County
By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com
Last month, Janus Developmental Services celebrated its 40th birthday. Established April 4, 1979 NONPROFIT as Janus Developmental Services, Inc., the organization has long been a resource for families looking to improve quality of life for family members with developmental disabilities. “Essentially, Janus was started by parents that Sorenson lived in Tipton County and Hamilton County,” said Chris Sorensen, president and CEO of Janus Developmental Services. “At that time, historically, most people with disabilities would be sent to institutions, but these parents didn’t want that for their kids. They wanted some place for their kids to go so that they could do something meaningful. Actually, if you go around the state, there are agencies like Janus providing similar types of services, and almost all of those were started by parents as an alternative. We’ve gone through the years providing various types of services and programs.” PROVIDING OPPORTUNITY Sorensen said a major part of Janus’ mission is aimed at providing career opportunities to clients. The organization has long been known for its sheltered workshop program, where clients work on-site at Janus’ Ind. 32 facility for companies to earn a wage. For example, Carmel-based candle company Linnea’s Lights has all of its jars assembled with candlewicks at the Noblesville workshop. “We find that the clients who participate in the workshop and their families are really happy because they have a chance to earn income,” Sorensen said. “There are some other options, too, for earning income within Janus.” Janus also pursues employment opportunities for its clients in surrounding communities, working one-on-one with individuals to find jobs. In addition, Janus’ Doorways Program lets clients pursue their personal interests, such as fitness, cooking, gardening, community services and community outings. A NEW LITERACY PROGRAM Last year, Janus started a literacy program at its facility, something Sorensen said has changed her perception on the

depth of the Janus programming. “I was told when I first started here that almost everybody has in their plan (that they want to) learn to read, but then I was told that it just seemed silly because if everybody’s gone through the school system and they haven’t learned to read by this point in time, they never will,” she said. “There was the feeling that (a reading program) wouldn’t be a good choice, and nobody understood why it was in their plans.” That assumption changed in 2018 when Janus employees visited another organization with a literacy program. “We just wanted to see what it was like and what it involved,” Sorensen said. “They were having great success with it, and they showed us that they had this reading software program that would allow them to customize books for each of the people that were participating.” GROWTH “Over the past five years, we’ve been averaging a growth rate of people that we’re serving at our facility by 10 percent every year,” Sorensen said. Janus provides services to 137 individuals on-site at its facility on Ind. 32. Janus also provides assistance in the community in one-on-one services, including community employment, respite and personal assistance and care to 70 individuals. In September 2016, Janus announced the purchase of the 19.2-acre Noblesville Golf & Batting Center, 17400 Willowview Rd., adjacent to the 11-acre Janus facility. The project’s scale, timeline and funding have not been finalized.

Rumors true about Fishers
Climate change science is solid
Editor, As a mother of a 5-year-old kindergartner, I am proud that my son knows about and is aware of community leaders, workers and rules. The need for our children to respect authority is just as important as learning the cultural norms of our communities and societies. Unfortunately, my son, who is differently abled, was not afforded the benefit of an organic relationship with the local police department. On February 20, I received communication that my son needed to be picked up from his school, Cumberland Road Elementary School. Considering my child’s social challenges, I expected a quick pick-up and to schedule a meeting - as is the norm of my relationship with the school this school year. Instead, I arrived to the front office to be escorted by the school counselor, to a room with my 5-year-old son and a Fishers police officer in full uniform. According to the counselor, my son “destroyed” a classroom. In reality, the damage included: A bucket of crayons turned over, a table and chairs turned over and maybe a tipped over tableau. Because of this outburst, a school resource officer -- that is, a police officer in full uniform -- was called in to assist with my son’s educational, emotional and behavioral outburst in an academic institution. After collecting my son and his belongings, he and I were then followed -- seemingly escorted by the school staff and police officer -- to the front office, and my son and I willingly left the school. This gross response and relationship between Hamilton Southeastern schools, especially an elementary school, and the Fishers Police Dept. is inappropriate. And while this is not to entirely fault the Fishers PD for their involvement in this situation, Cumberland Road Elementary School’s procedures and escalation methods for students (general and special education alike) must be reviewed and revised to truly prove itself a diverse and inclusive school focused on supporting students in their academic journey. Overall, I am greatly agitated and angered: I once believed in Cumberland Road Elementary School, Fishers schools and even Fishers to be more tolerant than rumors have let on. Unfortunately, the rumors have proven true. Jillian Williams, Fishers
Editor, Why do you continue to print letters to the editor by people who know nothing about the subject of global warming and climate change? Has Mr. Cottrell even read the latest U.S. government report on climate change or the Summary of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, let alone the hundreds of other studies on the subject? If you want to report this subject in Current, you need to get serious and get informed. The science is out there, and it is solid. Carl W Lowry, Fishers Editor’s note: This letter was written in response to a letter to the editor by George Cottrell published April 16.
Fighting for education Editor, Every two years, the Indiana General Assembly has the arduous but critical task of crafting a state budget and deciding how much money gets invested in K-12 education. We at the Indiana School Boards Association are at the forefront of the fight to get our schools the strongest level of funding possible to support more than 1 million Hoosier public school students. Funding for the K-12 education system in Indiana represents 50 percent of state government’s budget of $34 billion. The new budget appropriates a total of $763 million in new money for K-12 public education in the next biennium. The ISBA joined with other K-12 education associations to stand with government leaders, including Gov. Eric Holcomb, Speaker of the House Brian Bosma and Senate President Pro Tempore Rod Bray, to announce the funding increases totaling 4.5 percent annually. The final K-12 education budget allotment of $14.8 billion represents a historic funding level and the highest percentage increase since the Great Recession and the changes to funding of public education made in 2009.

Fishers High School seniors Jason Nguyen, left, and Logan Faircloth support HSE’s new anti-discrimination policy. (Photo by Anna Skinner)
EQUALITY FOR ALL Fishers High School students speak on why they support the recently passed anti-discrimination policy By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com When the Hamilton Southeastern Schools Board of TrustCOVER STORY ees recently revised the district’s antidiscrimination policy, following pressure from the student body, Fishers High School senior Logan Faircloth described the feeling as “being up in the clouds.” The board originally voted against specific language, such as gender identity, in the policy at its April 24 meeting. The board was required to vote on the policy twice. At the second meeting May 8, more public comments were heard. At the end of the meeting, three board members changed their vote and the policy passed, 5-2. The two nay votes were cast by Sylvia Shepler, who made comments during the first meeting about how being straight was less publicly supported than being gay, and Amanda Shera. “I think it was a combination of not only the pressure from the media but all the other influential people who spoke about
it,” Faircloth said. “I think the additions of all those pressures (helped), and they didn’t want to keep coming back to this (topic) because we were not going to stop fighting.” Faircloth and Jason Nguyen, another FHS senior, are student leaders of the HSEqual group, a community group fighting for the inclusion of the gender-identity language within the non-discrimination language. Nguyen, a gay student of Vietnamese ethnicity, said the language makes him feel more protected. Nguyen, a cadet teacher who teaches kindergarten students, said the policy is important because the students he teaches may need its protections in the future. “I’m going to be gone next year, but they’re not. They’re going to be here many, many years, so why not have this policy because they might need it,” Nguyen said. “Thank goodness we have it now so they can be protected and be who they are. That’s what they teach you in kindergarten, to be who you are.” Nguyen said because he’s gay, he’s been made fun of a lot. However, he said he’s
been targeted for other reasons, too. “The little racial jokes can mean a lot. I’ve had people make fun of my eyes, or make fun of me and say I eat pets,” he said. “I feel so much more protected (now). When it does become a serious matter, I have something behind me to cover for me. I think that’s the thing, it doesn’t protect just LGBTQ people, it literally protects anyone.” Faircloth said the objective moving forward is to educate administration and staff about the policy. “Our goal is to have more training for teachers,” she said. “For teachers who have been in this field for 30 years, they may not know about transgender students and what they go through, and they don’t know what these students go through every day. “Our goal is to make sure teachers are able to inform their students and have this information now and use it when educating students.” Before the policy, Nguyen said a transgender student approached administration officials and said he reported the harassment he was receiving but instead of tak-
ing action, the administration told him to suppress it instead of expressing himself, he said. Another transgender student’s car and home were targeted after he spoke out in support of the non-discrimination policy.
DISCRIMINATION FROM ADMINISTRATION Fishers High School senior Logan Faircloth recognizes the importance of an anti-discrimination policy. “One of my best friends is transgender and after learning about everything he goes through on a daily basis, and not just with his fellow students and classmates and even teachers, but his family life at home and how it’s shaped him as a human being, it’s hard not to do something,” Faircloth said. “He’s experienced hate from teachers misgendering him on purpose and other students harassing him and his friends and the administration not being able to combat that correctly.”

ESSAY
LETTER Current bullies anti-vaxxers
Changing course Commentary by Terry Anker From our earliest memories, we are encouraged to stick it out. When the going gets tough, the tough get going. Even the tagline from the 1999 science fiction spoof “Galaxy Quest” admonished us to “Never give up. Never surrender!” It makes sense. Unless we push our limits, we are unlikely to come to understand what those bounds may be. Sadly, most of us operate far below our capacity, comfortable ensconced in false, lowered perceptions about what we’d be able to accomplish if we’d just put our minds to it. Is it easier to quit than do the work? Probably. Still, are there times when we are well-advised to wave the white flag? Have we arrived at the point of over-promise and under-deliver? Certainly, we don’t know if we will fail at a task until, well, we fail at it. And by then, the harm to ourselves and others is caused. Does this put us under some moral duty to fight to the death even if our good intentions have led us to charge into a battle that we don’t have the desire to undertake? Happily, circumstance can change with the winds of our will. Dedication often trumps inherent skill. The tortoise only beat the rabbit because of a willingness to take on the race. But, can there be honor in calling it quits? When can we justly declare victory – or failure – and move on? Hockey legend Wayne Gretzky famously remarked, “You miss 100 percent of the shots you don’t take.” Naturally, he is correct. Yet somehow, we can suspect that his success, in part, is measured by the shots that he did not take. No doubt, don’t be a quitter. But also, know when it is time to make a change. Isn’t intellect a far better master than ego? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may email him at terry@ youarecurrent.com.
Going out a winner Commentary by Danielle Wilson People have been asking, so I thought I’d let everyone know. I did end up beating my husband Doo in a triathlon a few weeks back (despite my inane deciHUMOR sion to buy him an exceptionally fast bike). But only by 9 seconds. That’s why I am officially announcing my retirement from any kind of race where Doo also is competing. Never again will I risk the chance of a humiliating defeat. My ego can’t take it and Doo is getting too good. And it’s not just the bike. He’s always been a better biker. He may have passed me a bit sooner than expected, but I am used to having to catch him on the run. And here in lies the problem. Five years ago, Doo almost stroked out during the 5K leg. He walked a good portion of it and required a concerning amount of Gatorade and sitting to recover (I destroyed him in that race, by
the way, even though I was suffering from a stomach virus that included vomiting and a low-grade fever. Super fun!). From that day on, Doo has vowed to get in better shape and to one day cross the finish line before me. To that end, he has since completed two full marathons and a countless number of half-marathons. He has transformed himself into an athlete by sheer force of will. And his 8-inch height advantage effectively eliminates my willingness to die before letting him win. I have no doubt Doo will emerge victorious next time, which is why I have decided there won’t be a “next time.” I mean, 9 seconds? Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.”
-Benjamin Franklin
Editor, I’m usually late reading the Current publication so I just saw Tim Campbell’s cartoon from March 26 about the unvaxxed child. We are against bullying in our society but evidently the bullying towards anti-vaxxers is accepted? While this type of thing is evident nationally, I’m furious that my own community takes this stance. “Anti-Vaxxers” should properly be referred to as “Pro-Health.” They do not blindly take their doctor’s word for anything. They do their own extensive research. For example, I was tired after hearing time and again from doctors that they don’t know the cause or the cure for anything. It’s clear that doctors are only mainly taught how to administer drugs. This is definitely not a health-promoting situation since not one cell in my body is made up of artificial chemicals. It’s sad how pro-vaxxers feel the need to push others into vaccinating, but anti-vaxxers aren’t pushing their beliefs on anyone. I’m not trying to educate you. My point is that picking on “anti-vaxxers” in our community is utterly insulting since most people have no idea what the anti-vax movement is all about, and they don’t take the time to unlearn what they’ve been told by the so-called experts. Joan O’Keefe, Fishers

Giving it my worst Commentary by Dick Wolfsie For 40 years, I have shared in loading and unloading the dishwasher (I’d rather clean the toilet with my toothbrush HUMOR or clean out the gutters with a teaspoon). Today, my wife informed me that I’m now forever relieved of dishwasher duty. “Just scrape the dishes and stack them in the sink,” she said. “You’re terrible at loading and it’s gotten worse by the day. Ever wonder why when you unload the dishes, everything you flung into the machine willy-nilly has miraculously lined up perfectly in the appropriate slots? Who do you think did that?” “Well, it takes almost an hour to run a load of dishes and I hear a lot of odd noises, so I assumed a mechanical realignment was one of the cycles.” “You just toss the dishes in, with no regard for how the process works.” “Mary Ellen, I load the dishwasher like I load our clothes washer. I don’t put socks in one part of the machine, then my pants in another. Why would I do that with cups and saucers?” Mary Ellen claims I was getting progressively worse at unloading as well. I dump the entire utensil holder into the silverware drawer. She has this odd notion that knives, spoons and forks go into their own compartments. She wants them separated — even before we set the table. She also says I’ve been messing up the inside of our fridge. Apparently, again, everything has its proper place, so that’s why the mustard has been moving from the top shelf to the fridge door and why lettuce has often crept south to a thing called the “vegetable bin.” Jars have to go on the third shelf. That’s gotta be wrong, because when I was 6, the pickles always stared me right in the face. Going eye-to-eye with kosher dills goes back to the Old Testament. I also may have a shot at never doing laundry again, but I won’t get complacent about my lack of accomplishments. There are beds not to be made and rugs not to be vacuumed. I’m very proud of myself. I’m doing the worst I can.

New surgery technique benefits patients By Chris Bavender news@currentinfishers.com Imelda Brewer has had two knee replacements. The surgery on RECOVERY her left knee in 2012 while living in Florida resulted in extreme pain and about a year’s recovery time. But it was a far different experience in 2018 when she had her right knee replaced at IU Health Saxony in Fishers. This time, a new technique that helps reduce post-surgery pain and less use of post-surgery opioids, made all the difference. “With this last one it was about five months for full recovery,” Brewer said. “The first one was very painful, but with the second one, I got along much better. It was quite different.” The technique was researched by doctors at IU Health Saxony Fishers and the IU School of Medicine and led by Dr. Michael Meneghini, who performed Brewer’s surgery. Typically in knee replacement surgery, tourniquets are used to reduce blood flow in the area to make it easier to see and to keep the bone clean for cement implants.
But research showed using sterile carbon dioxide gas to clean the bone not only reduced pain but decreased the use of opioids. “The opioid crisis is real and affecting our country. We are always looking for anything to minimize risk and minimize use of opioids,” Meneghini said. “We have had people bringing back (pain) prescriptions routinely because they are doing better than they had done previously.” Brewer can attest to that. She used prescription pain medication for the first few weeks but gradually reduced her use. “I just kept reducing and reducing. I just had the strong mindset that I would be back to my active lifestyle,” she said. “I felt I could manage much better and this time I could shower immediately and daily and that helped a lot. I feel like I never had surgery. I feel so much better.” Approximately 500 patients have had the new technique since Jan. 1, 2018. “All have responded well to it and we have definitely noticed many of the problems attributed to the tourniquet use postop have been eliminated,” Meneghini said. “We have had a lot of good feedback.”

Bacteria affect our metabolism and obesity rates, among other things, so the connection seems logical. This may be true but scientists don’t fully
understand how the millions of bacteria already in our bodies work together. What we do know, though, is that most yogurts are packed with sugar, which contributes to obesity and other problems.

A teaspoon per day was given to women in the study and they lost 43 percent more weight than women in the placebo group. Appethyl is available online as spinach extract in powder or capsule form.

Are you really a leader? Commentary by Randy Wheeler I’m speaking to employees in their organization and ask: LEADERSHIP “Are you a leader?” A few hands shoot confidently in the air, others are raised hesitantly while some individuals avoid eye contact. “Do any of you interact with anyone?” I ask. A chuckle arises from some as all the hands go up in the air. Why ask these questions? I was helping each of them realize they are leaders since leadership is influence. Within an organization or team, individuals may have a title or position and are formally considered leaders. Some are truly influential leaders and some are not. Then, there is another group of people who don’t even realize they are leading. These are the followers. These are the individuals who believe in the overall cause of the organization or team but do not necessarily want a title or position. These individuals are listened to by most and have influence among their peers. They are leaders.
Now, I must clarify that every individual constantly influences in either a positive or negative direction by their actions, words and attitude. How can we all lead better, either at work or at home? Connect: Leadership expert John Maxwell calls it “walking slowly through the crowd.” Think of ways to connect with those you formally or informally lead, as that will increase trust. Encourage: Someone uncharacteristically performing poorly, check to see if something else is going on. Listen: If you are a doer like me, then this is hard. Slow down to listen at a level that you are not thinking about your next sentence, and people will know you care. We are constantly influencing and constantly leading. What is one way you can connect, encourage, or listen better with those you lead today? Randy Wheeler lives in Fishers with his family and does leadership development with organizations, teams and individuals. He can be reached at randy@ wheelercoachingsystems.com.
DISPATCH Stock of the Week - Fifth Third Bancorp (FITB) has $146 billion in assets, more than 1,200 full-service banking centers and a well-focused geographical footprint that includes Ohio, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, North Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia and Georgia.

Music for Miracles gives back Commentary by Jeff McDermott On April 28, for the sixth consecutive year, the students of Carmel High School’s Dance Marathon program PALLADIUM came to the Palladium to present their Music for Miracles event, a heartwarming and entertaining student talent show to benefit Riley Children’s Foundation. I was honored again this year when the students invited me to offer welcoming remarks to the attendees, and it struck me how this annual event epitomizes the power of the arts to bring people together and heal bodies and souls. Music for Miracles perfectly blends the missions of the Center for the Performing Arts and CHS Dance Marathon. At the Center, we strive to engage and inspire the central Indiana community through enriching arts experiences. The Dance Marathon students – more than 100, in this case – say they do it all “For the Kids.” This magical evening embodied both missions. We are fortunate in Carmel to have a school system and a community that value and invest in the arts and arts education. At Music for Miracles, the student
performers took the Palladium stage, one act after another, and wowed the audience of 800. Behind the scenes, other students worked side by side with the Center’s production team to coordinate lights, sound and staging. Adults, teens, artists and stage crew all collaborated. As is tradition at Music for Miracles, the parent of a “Riley Kid” offered a testimonial. James Dolan bravely recounted how his son, Jameson, was born with a life-threatening condition, but after months in Riley Hospital for Children’s neonatal unit and multiple surgeries by skilled physicians, he beat the odds and is now a happy and healthy 18-month-old. In fact, young Jameson attended the performance with his family and, as if on cue, let out a little yelp of happiness as his father talked about that journey to health. It was a miraculous moment, music to the crowd’s ears. Jeffrey C. McDermott, the president/CEO of the Center for the Performing Arts and the Great American Songbook Foundation, is an occasional columnist. He can be reached as JMcDermott@TheCenterPresents.org.

Youth to play in ‘Little Mermaid’
Selections from Sonoma
By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com
Commentary by Elizabeth Morse
Jack Clark sees a fun benefit of appearing to be swimming on stage. “I think skating around on THEATER stage with Heelys will be so much fun, but I’m going to have to practice a lot so I don’t fall off the stage,” Clark said. The Westfield Intermediate School fifthgrader will portray Flounder in Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre’s production of “The Little Mermaid,” May 23 to June 30. “My little sisters (ages 5 and 8) sure are excited and I think it will be fun,” Clark said. “They have been more excited about this show than any other show I’ve been in.” Clark, 11, caught the acting bug early. “I started acting when I was 7 years old and have not stopped since,” Clark said. “I got my start in one of my uncle’s (Craig Whitcombe) shows at The Biz (in Avon) and have had many amazing opportunities since then. Some of my favorites were playing Winthrop in ‘The Music Man’ with the Civic Theatre, Louis in ‘The King and I’ with Brebeuf (Preparatory School) and Christian in ‘Fun Home” with Ball State.” Clark enjoys performing in front of an audience.
A new season is finally here! How about some new wine suggestions to go with spring? I’ve WINEderlust got a red, white and sparkler for you to kick off warm weather. Give these California dreamers a swirl: (Bubbles) Gloria Ferrer Sonoma County Brut, NV $18ish (I believe you can find this baby at Trader Joe’s for around $15). A gracious sparkler with great taste and a surprisingly low price. Bright spiced apple with golden pie crust flavors and a smidge of strawberry. Made from a blend of chardonnay and pinot noir grapes, she’s a spirited little sparkler by herself or with food. Serve with sushi or roasted chicken. (White) 2018 Gundlach Bundschu Estate Vineyard Gewürztraminer, $25. GB is one of my favorite wineries to visit in Sonoma. Its historic tasting room, like its wines, is steeped in tradition. Check it out if you find yourself visiting California wine country. This wine smells like fresh peaches and blooming jasmine, heady and fragrant. With 10 percent oak

Clark has only been in musicals so far. “I have not been in a play, but if I was ever offered the opportunity, I would accept with much joy,” he said. Sarah Daniels, who made her Beef & Boards debut as Sandy in “Grease” earlier this year, returns in the title role. The musical focuses on King Triton’s youngest daughter, Ariel, who wants to leave her ocean home to explore the world above. When she rescues the human Prince Eric, Ariel can’t wait any longer and makes a bargain with Ursula, the sea witch, to trade her tail for legs. For more, visit beefandboards.com.
aging it is a subtly round and rich glass with flavors reminiscent of Charentais* melons. Crisp and dry. (Red) 2017 Benziger Family Winery, Monterey Pinot Noir. OK, so this might be my other favorite Sonoma winery. I was lucky to stay there as a guest many years ago. As a gardener, I loved visiting its vineyard and learning about biodynamic farming. Super-kind folks with a collection of consistently good wines. This one has the lovely earthiness you’d hope for in pinot noir. It also tastes like strawberries. With a little warm spice in the mouth, this one’s a crowd-pleaser. Perfect with grilled meats, $20 *Pro tip: Charentais is a French musk melon. Kind of like cantaloupe but better. Cheers!

Blueprint for Improvement: Light and bright Carmel kitchen (Part II) Commentary by Larry Greene
THE SOLUTION
After
Before
1. Removal of the bulkheads immediately updated the overall feel of the space. 2. Appliances were relocated to allow for new, larger windows and more light. 3. The island was extended to provide additional storage, seating and prep space. 4. Decorative legs on the island give the impression of a table or piece of furniture. 5. Cabinetry in two finishes is a popular choice with today’s homeowners and lends visual interest to the kitchen. 6. Quartz countertops, a custom range hood, cabinets with wave-patterned glass inserts and a textured tile backsplash complete the stunning updates to this kitchen. Next month we’ll share pictures of this home’s new pool pavilion, fire pit and outdoor kitchen! To get started on your own remodeling project, visit us at caseindy.com or stop by one of our three locations.
Background: This home was built in 2004 in Carmel’s Valleybrook neighborhood. The owners fell in love with the location and layout of the home and knew they could make cosmetic updates to suit their style.
THE CHALLENGE The homeowners wanted to update several areas, so the projects were planned in phases. Once the interior was complete (including master bath, kitchen, two bathrooms and basement), the homeowners moved in and the exterior phase began.

Origins of bungee jumping Commentary by Don Knebel Bungee jumping has become popular all around the world, TRAVEL but it started when a New Zealander emulated a dangerous South Sea rite of passage. For untold generations, young men on Pentecost Island have jumped from tall wooden towers with one end of a vine tied to their ankles and the other end to the tower. The vines are sized so that the jumper’s fall is instantly stopped just as he hits the ground. Those surviving the ordeal are welcomed into the society as “men.” In the mid-1980s, A.J. Hackett decided to duplicate this so-called “land diving” experience with a less abrupt finale. He created a super-elastic cord (called “bungy” in New Zealand) and began jumping off New Zealand bridges. Finding the experience exhilarating and seeing its commercial potential, he jumped off the Eiffel Tower in 1987, landing him in jail and creating international interest. In 1988, he opened the world’s first commercial bungy jumping site on the Kawarau Gorge Suspension Bridge, 141 feet above the Kawarau River near Queenstown, New Zealand. The idea took off and adventure seekers from around the world began coming to New Zealand to literally jump off a bridge. Today, many bungee jumping sites around the world are taller than the Kawarau Gorge site, but thousands of people each year come to where it all began. Paying about $150 per jump, jumpers choose whether to have the cord

sized to allow them to touch the water or to stop just above the water. Most begin the four-second or so free fall with their arms extended as if in flight, with first-time jumpers often screaming as they approach the river head first at 50 mph. When the jump is finished, the jumper is pulled from the air and hauled ashore on a small rubber boat.

Because the technology is so new, doctors are only using it for patients who could benefit the most, such as women with extremely dense breast tissue. But in time, some doctors believe tomosynthesis could replace the mammogram as it becomes more available.
•Packaging, serving and selling worldclass gourmet chocolates The future of breast imaging has arrived at St.Vincent Carmel Women’s Center, as doctors are now able to use a new technology that has a better rate of detecting early breast cancer in women with dense breast tissue than mammography.
Tomosynthesis, like a CT scan, takes images from multiple angles and uses computer processing to create a 3D image that a radiologist can use to look at a breast from various angles.
BUILDING OUR CO MMUNITY
“Instead of having one view, you have a series of slices,� says Dr. Janalyn Ferguson, a radiologist at St.Vincent. “It’s kind of like you’re looking at a breast like slices of bread.�
Recent studies have shown that tomosynthesis can increase the cancer detection rate by about 20 to 25 percent. It also decreases the likelihood that patients will be called back for additional imaging, as the limited number of views provided by mammograms can cause normal overlapping tissue to appear cancerous.
With tomosynthesis, doctors can look at about 50 images per breast instead of just a few. It may take a little longer for patients to get results, but physicians believe the many benefits are worth the wait.

With breast cancer, early detection typically leads to a much better prognosis and less-invasive treatments. Tomosynthesis can lead to both of those benefits, and more.
