Campus Parkway to shift to double-crossover diamond at I-69 news@currentinfishers.com Interstate 69 in Fishers will remain under construction at Exit 210 through roads July, and a double-crossover diamond traffic pattern will open at Campus Parkway and I-69 on or after May 8. The double-crossover diamond pattern is intended to improve traffic flow during the remainder of construction for interchange improvements. Campus Parkway and I-69 interchange will remain under construction, but the double-
crossover diamond pattern is expected to be fully open to traffic in July. Upcoming months will see multiple traffic lane shifts to complete the interchange design. Two interchanges similar to Campus Parkway and I-69 have been constructed with a double-crossover diamond pattern in Indiana in Fort Wayne and Greenwood. If confused about the configuration, drivers are encouraged to follow pavement markings, signs and traffic signal instructions. For more, visit in.gov/indot/3441.htm.

Farmers market seeks local help By Renee Larr • news@currentinfishers.com The Fishers Farmers Market needs volunteer help from residents to serve as ambassadors through the volunteer spring and summer. Volunteers will welcome and greet guests as they arrive. “We are excited to introduce our new Fishers Farmers Market Ambassador program, which gives volunteers the opportunity to assist with various aspects of the market,” said Kara Hall, marketing and public relations manager. “The ambassador role is the most important role at the market, as it serves as the welcoming face and is often the very first interaction people have with the market. Volunteers will also serve as an informational resource and customer/ vendor assistant within the farmers market community.” The market is looking for six volunteers per week to work from 7:30 to 10:30 a.m. and 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Volunteers who sign up for more than four shifts will receive a free T-shirt. “You can just sign up for whatever shift you would like. We definitely encourage people to sign up for more than one week,

but it depends on their schedule,” Hall said. Last year, the Fishers Parks and Recreation Dept. operated the market. “This is the first time we're doing the ambassador program, so we're really excited to do it,” Hall said. “As we're growing, we're looking at how we can reach out into the community and include them.” The market is open through Sept. 30 and will include specialty days throughout its run. To volunteer, contact Dan Domsic at domsicd@fishers.in.us or at 317-595-3151. For more regarding the market, contact Lisa Wilkins, farmers market coordinator, at lwilkins@fishers.in.us.

Farm owner talks antibiotic use at dieticians gathering By Desiree Williams Educating others about the connection between animal and human food health is important to Meggie Foster, farm owner and brand marketing coordinator for CountryMark she spoke to a crowd of dieticians at the annual state conference of the Indiana Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics at the Forum Conference & Events Center last month in Fishers. “It’s a good thing for them and their families to be educated about their food purchases,” Foster said. “If I can be a part of that, I think that’s positive for them and my family, who hope to continue to raise hogs.” Foster stresses the importance of "one health," which is the idea that animal, human and environmental health are connected. To keep all three areas healthy, she advocates the responsible use of antibiotics by human and animal health professionals to prevent illness in animals. “Helping protect antibiotics is all about

raising healthy pigs by preventing disease rather than treating disease. This focus helps farmers reduce the need for antibiotics in the first place and protects the effectiveness of antibiotics for humans and pigs when they are needed,” Foster said. Foster realizes there is a stigma surrounding antibiotic use. “(Dietitians) are a very strong voice, obviously, in consumer education about food choices,” she said.

Mail carriers to collect food editorial@youarecurrent.com
Dr. Praveen Perni
On May 13, the National Association of Letter Carriers and the United States Postal Service and philanthropy other partners are asking residents to help Stamp Out Hunger. The annual postal food drive has grown into a national effort that provides assistance to the millions of Americans struggling to put food on the table. According to Local NALC Branch 888 President Ronnie Roush, the need for food donations is great. Currently, 49 million Americans – 1 in 6 – are unsure where their next meal is coming from. Thirteen million are children who feel hunger’s impact on their overall health and ability to perform in school. More than 5 million seniors over age 60 are food insecure, with many who live on fixed incomes. Roush stated that food banks and pantries often receive the majority of their donations during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday seasons. By springtime, many pantries are depleted, entering the summer low on supplies at a time when many school breakfast and lunch programs

are not available to children in need. With the help of communities across the country, letter carriers and the U.S. Postal Service have collected more than 1.5 billion pounds of food in the United States during the first 24 years of this national food drive. “We’re proud of this food drive and the immediate help it brings to our local food pantries. We’re asking residents for their support to help make this another successful food drive. It’s easy to make a donation; simply leave a bag of non-perishable food items by your mailbox on May 13 to help your neighbors in need,” Roush stated. To participate in the annual Stamp Out Hunger food drive, residents are encouraged to leave a sturdy bag containing non-perishable food items, such as canned soup, canned vegetables, peanut butter, pasta, rice or cereal next to their mailbox prior to the time of regular mail delivery May 13. Letter carriers will collect these food donations as they deliver mail and then take them to local food pantries. “One hundred percent of the food collected in each community will be donated to a local food pantry. All donations stay in the local area,” Roush stated.

A transforming treatment Fishers resident launches 12-month healing center for addiction
By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Laci Giboney said without hope, there’s no chance for recovery. The Fishers resident cover story said she lost count of how many times she sought treatment for her heroin addiction. The average is seven attempts for an addict. Most treatment center programs last seven to 30 days, and Giboney said that’s not enough time to truly heal from an addiction. According to Giboney, repeatedly searching for treatment options to beat an addiction can be detrimental to the chance a person has for recovery and can even cost them their life. “Every time they fall back to addiction, they lose hope,” she said. “Hope is going to drive them to even make that step toward recovery.” Giboney’s only source of treatment during her four-year addiction was Fairbanks, a short-term recovery center in Indianapolis. There were no addiction centers, longor short-term, in Hamilton County until Transformations Center for Healing opened this month. Giboney’s dream, a 10-year goal, finally is a reality. Transformations Center for Healing opened May 1. The center can house up to 10 women, and it puts them through a year-long healing program for all types of substance abuses and addictions. The program is faith-based, as Giboney found much of her healing through her faith in God. “I think I had so much to work through (during my addiction), and God would kind of just give me little pieces to heal from at a time,” she said. During her addiction, Giboney spent time in prison for burglary, theft and forgery. She was listening to music on her bunk in prison when the idea of developing a longterm healing center for women came to her. “It was just this epiphany; this is what I was supposed to do,” she said. “At that time, my faith was so strong, I believed it was going to happen but (did not know) when or how.” Her epiphany occurred at the end of 2007. Ten years later, Transformations
Church in Noblesville, which is on the same property as the center. After the 12-month stay, Program Director Daryl Mendoza said the house always will be a safe place for the women to return to. “If they make it through this house, it is always theirs,” she said. “It is always going to be a part of them, always a place they can stop by. It’s their home away from whatever home they’ve established in the community.” Eventually, Giboney hopes the program can become part of a plea bargain option for women going through the court system. “There’s this idea that Hamilton County hasn’t been affected (by drugs), but we are ranked ninth out of 92 counties in the state for heroin and opiate overdoses and ranked fourth for prescription overdoses," she said. “Every piece of this program is strategically designed to address issues in terms of brain disease and the release of dopamine and neurotransmitters and regulate those to a natural state again and to build confidence and empower them.” For more, visit transformationscfh.org.

Inside Transformations. Up to 10 women can stay at Transformations Center for Healing at a time.
Center for Healing is a brick-and-mortar operation, with one woman already signed up and more than 35 inquiries waiting to be evaluated. The center, 2200 Sheridan Rd., Noblesville, features a workout room, a sauna, a family style dining room, a garden, psychological healing programs and more. Women

They will volunteer through various partnerships throughout the county, including Grace Care Center, itown Church in Fishers, White River Christian Church in Noblesville or through citizens asking for volunteer work and assistance. Women will attend Sunday service at Life
More on Laci Giboney Laci Giboney graduated from Noblesville High School in 2000 and spent four years addicted to heroin. She said the addiction grew from an emotional pain she never addressed. “Heroin just happened to be the substance that was present when I needed to numb my pain,” she said. Giboney realized her mission was to create a center for other women battling addiction in Hamilton County. She realized this through her relationship with God while serving time in prison. Giboney is 11 years into recovery and has been out of prison since 2008. After prison, Giboney received her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in social work from Indiana University. She and her family moved to Fishers in 2010. She began the process of filing for nonprofit status in January 2016. Transformations for Healing Center opened May 1.

Rooting for hubby — not
o b s e r v a tion Reverse technology
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Commentary by Terry Anker The rise of the machines has been a theme of science fiction writers since the beginning of the genre. We invest in our mechanical devices, hoping that they will someday come to serve our every need, all the while failing to notice our own growing dependency. With comfort comes complacency. And with complacency comes our subjection to the very devices we create to serve us. Yet with each new generation of innovation, we humans have found sufficient ways to stay on top of the food chain. We have mastered pony cars just as we had mastered ponies centuries before. Our obsession with dominating them – all with the intention of capturing their practical use – ultimately leads to a relationship of a more symbiotic nature. We protect and care for them even as they protect and care for us. Now, technology moves with ever-increasing velocity. Our capacity to learn and develop dominion over it is strained. With generations of smartphones replacing the old before we have figured out a modicum of their features, we are continually left to feel as if the technology has finally outpaced our ability – that we are the inferior. We revert to previous known methods to gain footing. There was a time, not that long ago, that automobiles were mechanical devices. If one failed to start, some human would tinker a bit with hand tools and experience to restore its life. Today, a wire is attached to the car’s brain to ask it what might be wrong. What if failure or impact has rendered it with a car-cussion so that it forgets its mission to serve us? Well, we could walk. And would we have a choice?

READER ’ S V I EW Much more to cigarette tax story Editor, I can’t say I disagree with the latest opinion piece regarding the cigarette tax. I do think, however, that the discussion is incomplete. I’ll readily admit up front that I’m no rehab expert as the gentleman who wrote in is. Even so, the fact of the matter is that there is much more to the story of circumventing abuse than pulling economic levers. While hitting one’s pocketbook is often a great means of motivation, we can’t so readily forget that when greater motivations, i.e. harsh addictions, exist, they not only create economic instability but also generate actions that attempt to overcome that instability. A person may do whatever it takes to satisfy the economic requirements of their addiction. In steps crime. As the prior piece mentioned, smoking and drug usage often go hand in hand www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14512107. So those who have an addiction wreaking havoc on their lives, including their financial lives, will now have to pony up yet more money to keep their parallel addiction to cigarettes alive and well. The extra costs can cause feelings of further distress and economic insecurity that will only help to further dependency on their
varied addictions. The vicious cycle may end up being furthered by the very law that is attempting to control it. Finally, while lawmakers may be making a helpful ruling (for at least the above reasons it is still yet to be seen), we can’t forget that we still live in a world in which cigarettes are legal and marijuana is a Class 1 drug alongside heroin. We are told that we cannot do something with a naturally occurring plant, yet we are free to light up a cigarette full of carcinogens and harmful substances, so long as we put a few extra dollars in their pockets. How might the heroin epidemic – alcoholism, cigarette usage and much more, too – recede if we were brave enough to actually promote and demand the American ideal of freedom rather than being content with it as a turn of phrase or mere concept? Our politicians may be doing something good with the cigarette tax, but at this point we can’t yet know. What can be known, however, is that they have much more yet to do and will only do so if we the people continue to push them toward it. John Blythe, Fishers
I won’t lie. I’m extremely nervous right now. My husband Doo made me sign up for a stupid triathlon, and while humor it seemed like a great idea back in January, with the race just hours away, I feel like my bowels are in full revolt. And the weird thing is, this is not my first one. Nor my second. So why is my adrenaline kicking in like I woke up to a zombie apocalypse? For sure, some of the nerves can be attributed to my competitive nature. I told Doo several years ago that he will never beat me because, unlike him, I am willing to die before I lose to someone I shouldn’t. I’m not kidding. I call it “athletic brinkmanship,” and I am deeply committed to its tactics. Blister? Ignore it. Dehydrated? Keep going. Signs of heat stroke? Suck. It. Up. Triathlons in particular are as much a mental game as physical, and compared to moms, men simply can’t get close. Advantage, me. And my man only recently gave up smoking and became a “runner,” which means unless I am struck down with a stomach bug, he’s not going to finish ahead of me (actually, that happened once and I still beat him!). But he’s been training hard, ran a marathon in the fall and is a much better biker than me. I hate to admit it, but I think he has a chance today. And I don’t really want to die, especially not in a swim suit/bike short hybrid. So now the question is, if Doo can do it today, can I rise above my arrogance and smack talk and truly be happy for all that he’s accomplished? Can I be the gracious good loser and celebrate his success? I like to think I can, but I’m not entirely positive. And that has me worried. Much more than running this stupid triathlon. Ugh. I need a toilet. Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may email her at danielle@ currentincarmel.com.

Stinging commentary Commentary by Dick Wolfsie The newest edition of the “Hammacher Schlemmer” gift catalog is packed with previously advertised items humor they still can’t unload (which I have probably made fun of in past columns) along with some brand new items I am about to skewer. This spring’s catalog cover features a Hypnotic Jellyfish Aquarium. It contains “two synthetic jellyfish that provide mesmerizing ambience.” That doesn’t seem like it would be soothing. Live jellyfish use their tentacles to defend against predators by emitting deadly toxins in a painful sting. Maybe they used leftover copy for last year’s flop, the Teddy Bear Aquarium. The customary introductory letter from their chairman, John McArthur, welcomes you to his world of unique products. Although Mr. McArthur does not have a gift for writing, he makes up for it with about 200 gifts in other areas, like inside the magazine. Hammacher reveals its obsession with mosquitos by offering seven items specifically for the purpose of avoiding bug bites, including the Mosquito Defeating Sports Chair ($79.95).
An attractive couple sits next to each other in their respective chairs, enclosed head-to-toe in netting. HS apparently borrowed this sexy marketing idea from the Cialis commercials. Not nearly as romantic as side-by-side outdoor bathtubs, but it does make a lot more sense than outdoor bathtubs. On a positive note, wearing protection always sets a good example. If you need a gift for the dog that has everything, the Anti Ant Moated Bowl stops invasions of “kibble-craving ants.” The bowl has a moat surrounding the food. What a waste of money! It takes most dogs less than 20 seconds to snarf down their meals. Even if ants had cellphones, they couldn’t spread the word that fast. Finally, The Suction-Powered Sinus Decongestor, which removes congestion by flushing a saline rinse through one nostril, then out the other. It’s perfect for anyone with breathing problems. It could also be used to drown ants.

Kanagaroo-a-thon hops back
Dispatches A snack can save your marriage — Hunger causes people’s glucose levels to drop, so they have less energy and therefore less self-control when it comes to dealing with anger and aggression. Have a snack when you feel your mood dipping. A snack with protein and “slow carbs” - such as a handful of almonds and an apple - will help keep your blood sugar levels stable. Also, wait to discuss a sensitive topic until you are feeling full. Keeping an eye on how hungry you are can go a long way toward keeping your relationships healthy. Source: The Daily Burst. Optimistic about heart health — Optimistic people are twice as likely to be in good cardiovascular health as their pessimistic counterparts, according to findings published in the journal Health Behavior and Policy Review. Researchers looked at physical activity, cholesterol and blood sugar levels, body mass index, dietary intake, blood pressure and tobacco use - the same seven factors used by the American Heart Association to determine good heart health.

Kanagroo-a-thon will return for its second year in the Newborn Intensive Care Unit at Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health North Hospital awareness in Carmel. Kangaroo care is a method that involves skin-to-skin contact. Parents hold their child, clothed only in a diaper, against their bare chest with a small blanket covering the child’s back. Kangaroo-a-thon encourages this method by tallying how long families can hold their baby over a two-week period. The goal is to promote awareness of the benefits of skin-to-skin contact and start making those benefits a reality for families in the NICU. Lynn Jenkins, RN, a nurse in the NICU and co-chair of Kangaroo-a-thon, brought the event to the hospital two years ago after hearing about it at an international conference in Florida. “We already encourage skin-to-skin holding, so we wanted to take it over the top with our two weeks of tallying and keeping track of how often they are hold-

ing babies skin-to-skin because of all the positive benefits for the families and the baby,” Jenkins said. Skin-to-skin contact reduces parental stress, increases parent and infant bonding, decreases postpartum depression, improves a child’s sleep cycle which stimulates brain development, increases a child’s weight gain and much more. Last year, the hospital tallied 544 hours of skin-to-skin contact between parents or grandparents. This year’s goal is to reach an average of 3.5 hours per day and to find one family who can hold their baby for 24 hours straight. The contest will last until May 15. For more, visit IUHealth.org.

Artistic Director for the Center for the Performing Arts and founder of the Great American Songbook Foundation Michael Feinstein stopped by to open Actors Theatre of Indiana’s production of “Beyond the Rainbow.” What a treat it was for the cast, crew and guests to have him stop by and give kudos for the hottest ticket in town directed by ATI’s own Don Farrell. The multi-talented cast includes three actresses who play various stages of Judy Garland, along with the people who were part of her journey and path to stardom. ATI favorite Katy Gentry, who originated the role of Judy in ATI’s 2007 premiere, 2010 Songbook Ambassador superstar Annie Yokom and the sensational young actress Anjali Rooney came alive with their brilliant acting, singing and mannerisms of the late Garland. Roger Ortman, Dave Ruark and Grace Sell also play multiple roles in the show, so it’s fun to see them shine. Everything about this show is spectacular. The songs, the glitz and story make this production a must-see.

Ballet Theatre of Indiana to present ‘Cinderella’
By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com
Presenting Sergei Prokofiev’s “Cinderella” provides some challenges for the Ballet Theatre of Carmel at Performer’s dance Edge. “All cast members are enjoying the challenge of not only mastering the demanding dance steps to Prokofiev’s unique music but also embracing the opportunity to hone their acting, pantomime and comedic timing skills,” Artistic Director Jane Hachiya-Weiner said. The pre-professional ballet company will present “Cinderella” at 2:30 and 7:30 p.m. May 13 at Westfield High School Auditorium. Natalie Heinemeyer, a Westfield resident, is playing the Fairy Godmother and understudy to Cinderella. “I love the music, costume and choreography of the Fairy Godmother,” Heinemeyer said. “Sometimes during rehearsals, I’ll be learning the Fairy Godmother role and

Cinderella at the same time. It can be exhausting, but I am privileged to be the understudy to two amazing dancers, Lacy Marsh and Erica Lohman.” Lohman, a Mount Vernon High School senior, will play Cinderella in the 2:30 p.m. performance while Marsh, a Park Tudor senior, is Cinderella in the evening show. Marsh and Lohman switch playing Cinderella’s stepmother as well. Heinemeyer, 14, finished in the top 24 in the
Junior Classical Ballet Category in the Youth America Grand Prix Semifinals competition at The Tarkington Theatre in Carmel in March and was invited to the YAGP master classes in April. Heinemeyer, a homeschooled eighth-grader, will attend the Washington Ballet Summer Intensive over the summer. “I find the most challenging part of competing are the moments right before my entrance on stage,” Heinemeyer said. “Waiting in the wings, watching others and hearing their music, all while trying to remain focused, that’s the most stressful part for me.” Emmanuelle Hendrickson, 15, was the third-place winner in the Senior Classical Ballet Category at YAGP in Carmel. Her sister, Isabelle, 14, was a Top 12 finalist in Junior Classical Ballet. The sisters, who are homeschooled, are from Kirklin in Clinton County.

Commentary by Amy Pauszek Where’s Amy stopped by the VIP Reception for the Deborah J. Simon Spotlight - Art for an #HIVFreeGeneration at Clowes Hall. Guests included David Hochoy, Jordan Anderson, Alyona Yakovleva-Randall, Wilmara Manuel, Frank and Katrina Basile, Peter Slaymaker, Alpha Blackburn, Jason Grisell, Kathy Campbell, Jamie Gibbs and Paco Argiz. The annual event is known for it’s one-night-only, performing arts extravaganza performed by local arts organizations and friends of the arts. All proceeds from the show benefitted Indiana AIDS Fund, a fundraising program of the Health Foundation of Greater Indianapolis. The night was filled with dancing, laughter and love. Every performance had a purpose and meaning, and I was particularly taken aback by Dance Kaleidoscope’s beautiful performance of “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” It was a magical night where everyone came together for an important cause that celebrated life through eyes of the arts.

Blueprint for Improvement: two-story master suite addition Commentary by Larry Greene
After solutions:
After
The goal was to design a two-story addition with a master suite on the main level and a large craft room below. 1. The 360-degree proportions and materials of the home were studied to ensure the new addition looked original to the home. 2. The new master suite connected through the existing library, giving an extra layer of privacy. This retreat included a large bedroom, walk-in closet and wheelchair-accessible bathroom. 3. Master bath amenities included a roll-in shower and a double-sink vanity with lower convenience outlets. 4. Carefully selected finishes reflect the warm color palette of the rest of the home, with stained trimwork, stone textures in the tile and hardwood flooring. 5. A fun, highly functional craft room was designed in the lower part of the addition and connected to the existing basement.
Before Background Info: These owners needed a design solution to age in place in their 1990s home in the Claybridge neighborhood of Carmel.
Before problems: Although they cherished their existing home and neighborhood, these owners were faced with the tough decision to move or make their home work for aging in place. Thinking long-term, their decision led them to a design for their home that created a much-needed master suite on the main level to avoid the many stairs that provided access to all of the original bedrooms.

Khas Mahal in Agra Fort. (Photo by Don Knebel)
Agra Fort and its harem Commentary by Don Knebel Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan is best known for having built the Taj Mahal to honor his wife. The nearby Agra Fort shows that she was not his only source of travel companionship. In 1628, Shah Jahan became the fifth Mughal Emperor, controlling much of the Indian subcontinent from his capital in Agra. Soon after assuming the throne, Shah Jahan renovated a walled fort that had been built by his grandfather, Akbar the Great, on a 100-acre site along the west bank of the Yamuna River. Shah Jahan replaced many of the red sandstone structures with more ornate ones made of white marble. He built the lavish Khas Mahal to serve as his sleeping chamber. A short walk from the Khas Mahal he built a jeweled octagonal tower named Musamman Burj as the residence for Mumtaz, the second of his three wives. The Khas Mahal opened onto a large four-section garden flanked on three sides by a two-story dormitory that served as Shah Jahan’s harem, where female employees and relaNOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING Case No. VA-1704-44 The City of Fishers Board of Zoning Appeals will hold a public hearing on the 24th day of May, 2017 at the City of Fishers City Hall, One Municipal Drive, Fishers IN, at 6:30 p.m. The application submitted by Troy Terew of True North Surveying on behalf of Kimberly and Shawn Tumblin, the property owners, is requesting a Development Standards Variance from section(s) Section 2.08 Maximum Impervious Surface Coverage of the City of Fishers Unified Development Ordinance to allow an increase of the maximum impervious surface coverage from thirty-five (35) to forty-two (42) percent.

tives and the emperor’s concubines were housed. Estimates of the number of women in Shah Jahan’s harem range from 200 to several thousand, guarded by eunuchs and managed by the emperor’s mother. Members of the harem were expected not only to provide sexual favors to Shah Jahan on demand, but to sing and dance for his pleasure. Shah Jahan also reportedly used members of his harem as pawns on a huge Parcheesi board constructed near his chamber, where he moved the pieces while sitting under a canopy. Despite the many women in his harem, Shah Jahan was devoted to Mumtaz. When she died during the birth of her 14th child in 19 years, he built the Taj Mahal as her tomb, located along the Yamuna River and visible from a room in the Musamman Burj.
