CloudOne tech firm plans to relocate headquarters to Fishers
By James Feichtner • james@youarecurrent.com
The concept of cloud based service and software can be a difficult concept to grasp, which is why companies like CloudOne can be such valuable assets in helping companies utilize this tech new technology. With Fishers being a haven for tech-savvy companies, it seems only fitting that on July 22 CloudOne announced that it will be relocating its global headquarters to Fishers. “As CloudOne has scaled up, we have quickly outgrown our current office space. In order to help enterprises make their things for the Internet of Things, it’s imperative we have a creative workspace reflective of our company’s culture and conducive to collaboration. Indiana has been the perfect place to grow our business and we are looking forward to the Fishers community helping foster our McDonald continued growth,” John McDonald, CEO of CloudOne said. The move was facilitated and supported by the Indiana Economic Development Corporation and The Fishers Economic Development Commission. The company will lease 11,518 square feet in The Switch at 8626 E. 116th St., Suite 300, in the Nickel Plate District. The move will allow CloudOne to create approximately 64 new full-time positions for Indiana resident employees by 2019. “I couldn’t be more excited to welcome CloudOne to the Fishers community,” Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness said. “Recently named one of Indiana Business Journal’s 2015 fastest-growing companies, CloudOne truly embodies the high-growth, entrepreneurial tech culture that exists here in
Fishers. Their commitment to our community elevates us all.” CloudOne will occupy the entire third floor space in The Switch, a $28 million dollar mixed-use project. All current employees working from the CloudOne location at 9247 N. Meridian St. in Indianapolis will relocate to the new headquarters. “We are thrilled to have an innovative, highenergy company like CloudOne joining The Switch,” Drew Loftus, founding principal of development firm Loftus Robinson said. “CloudOne is exactly the kind of business we enjoy working with – they really value the impact a progressive office environment can have on their business and overall company culture.” Simultaneously, it was announced The Indiana Economic Development Corporation offered CloudOne up to $1.7 million in conditional tax credits based on its job creation plans. These tax credits are performance-based, meaning until Hoosiers are hired, the company is not eligible to claim incentives. All CloudOne employees currently working in Indianapolis are expected to be transitioned into the new space by the fall of 2015. The news of CloudOne’s global headquarters relocation comes shortly after it was announced the company was named No. 4 on the Indianapolis Business Journal’s annual list of the Indianapolis area's Fastest-Growing Private Companies. The rankings profile the top companies in Indianapolis based on the greatest percentage of revenue growth over the past three fiscal years. CloudOne helps bring enterprise applications to the cloud, enabling global collaborative development, production and analysis of software and products in real time on individual, secure, private hybrid cloud environments.

We will have 87 apartment homes and up to 58 cottage homes that will be added to the campus. It’s essentially maintenance-free senior living,” director of marketing, Danielle Biedermann said. The public is welcome to tour the facility, meet the staff, enjoy food and register for door prizes. Entertainment will be provided by a harpist playing in the dining area for guests. “They will be able to tour the whole campus

The new homes are geared toward those over age 55 who are looking to have a little less maintenance on a home. The apartments will be available for a monthly rental fee and the cottages will be available to purchase. “It’s a nice option for those people who are looking to downsize or have a little less maintenance for their home but still live independently. There is someone onsite 24 hours a day. It’s definitely our goal for someone to be as independent as possible,” Biedermann said. For more information on the event or RAHT, visit reservehamilton.us.

Looming towards a referendum Commentary by Larry Lannan With the Hamilton Southeastern School Board apparently moving toward asking local voters to approve an operating fund referendum in May of 2016, it is useful schools to look back on how we got to this point. In November of 2009, local voters were told by the school board an additional property tax rate of 10 cents per $100 of assessed valuation would allow HSE Schools to lower class size and otherwise enhance the academic experience. Voters approved the increase in the general fund, effective January 1, 2010. Later that same month, Governor Mitch Daniels slashed funding for the state’s schools, blaming the severe economic downturn. As a result, the referendum tax increase was used just to keep HSE Schools’ financial head above water instead of lowering class sizes. Other school systems, such as Carmel, ran their general fund referendums after Daniels had drastically cut spending, allowing them the insight to ask for more from taxpayers in their general fund referendum requests. In recent years, the HSE School Board has gone to great lengths in avoiding large teacher
layoffs. Teachers and other staff members have had their health insurance deductibles rise dramatically, requiring them to spend more money out-of-pocket for their health care needs. Fees have been instituted for athletics and other extracurricular activities. Land owned by HSE Schools was sold. The 2015 Indiana General Assembly did provide more funding for HSE Schools, but the $24 million trumpeted by lawmakers at the time was optimistic. HSE will get between $7 million and $8 million extra state funding in each of the next two years, below the initial $24 million estimate. Once lawmakers finished their work, HSE authorized a scientific local survey showing support for a referendum tax increase if the extra funds go toward teacher salaries and/or class size. The school board will be eyeing a May 3 referendum. Look for a lively debate to ensue between now and then. Larry Lannan is an active news blogger in Fishers.

“We did fish ‘n’ chips for the Freedom Festival, and it was such a big hit,” said Sharon Moore, owner of Tilly’s Tea Room food on 116th Street in Fishers. Moore says that the fish and chips were received so well that she has decided to serve the meal on a more regular monthly basis. The first event will fall on Aug. 22 from 5 to 9 p.m. “It’s the real deal fish ‘n’ chips. It’s cod in our own secret English recipe batter, wrapped in newspaper,” said Moore. Although the traditional English way to serve the platter is with salt and malt vinegar, Moore says it will also be served with tartar sauce and ketchup, condiments that Americans typically prefer. Moore plans to have the tea room open so that patrons may eat in or take their food on the go. “We wrap it in such a way that it’s a walking food,” she said, adding that unprinted newspaper is now commonly used by restaurants to avoid potential health risks associated with newsprint ink. Tilly’s obtained a new liquor license in July, allowing Moore to serve beer and wine at the event. Although there is not a traditional beverage served with fish and chips, a pint of beer is a common refreshment with the dish

“The environment for taking care of veins in Indianapolis and many parts of medical the country is not limited to vascular surgeons,” Dr. Richard W. Chitwood said. Chitwood is a vascular surgeon and physician with VeinSolutions. “When you are not a surgeon, the options Chitwood that you have at your hands to treat varicose veins are limited by the fact that you’re not a surgeon. When you’re a surgeon, you’re options aren’t limited because you can do anything along the spectrum of care.” VeinSolutions will open a new location on Aug. 13 in St.Vincent Fishers Hospital at 13861 Olio Rd. Along with Chitwood, two other physicians will practice at the new location: Dr. George Sheng, M.D. and Dr. Sajjad Hussain, M.D. Chitwood said that the VeinSolutions practice decided to expand to offer the community more vein treatment options with physicians that
specialize in vein care. “I’ve been doing vein work for the entire duration of my career,” Chitwood said, who has been practicing for nearly 20 years. Chitwood often sees patients who have been either over- or under-treated by practitioners with a sub-specialty in vein treatment. VeinSolutions offers free screening evaluations for therapeutic and cosmetic vein issues such as varicose veins, spider veins, leg swelling, leg ulcers and venous insufficiency. Chitwood also performs common cosmetic treatments including Botox and Dysport. “Varicose veins can range from being completely asymptomatic to symptomatic and debilitating. Treatment is really based on the symptoms they cause,” Chitwood said. Patients may contact the practice directly as a physician’s referral is not necessary. Following the complimentary screening, patients may make the decision to move forward with more in-depth consultative evaluations. VeinSolutions employs the use of ultrasonography to identify valvular incompetence ⎯ the cause of varicose veins. The new Fishers location may be contacted at 415-9500.

Fishers doctor utilizes new treatment

By Renee Larr news@currentinfishers.com Fishers’ cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Michelle Jones Singer, is bringing a revolutionary, new treatment for postmenopausal innovation women. The procedure treats thinning, drying and inflammation of the vaginal wall. The treatment is called the MonaLisa Touch. Currently, Jones Singer is the only doctor in the state of Indiana performing the treatment. “The Mona Lisa Touch is a fractional Co2 laser for the vagina. It was invented Jones Singer in Italy. They've been using it for vaginal dryness, postmenopausal women, women who have had breast cancer and women that can't take estrogen,” said Jones Singer. It has also been found to help women with bladder leakage which usually requires surgery. Jones Singer performs the treatment in her office. A typical course of treatment is three procedures in an 18-week period. Most women report an improvement after the first treatment. “It's a 6-inch long device that goes inside the vagina. It's painless and it takes less than five minutes. No anesthesia is required. It's done right here in the office. Most ladies return to regular activity that day as soon as they leave,” said Jones Singer. The procedure was approved by the FDA in 2014. Jones Singer trained under Dr. Mickey Karram who is credited with bringing the new treatment to the United States. Jones Singer said it will help many women with something that isn’t often discussed. “Studies show vaginal atrophy is very depressing to women from age 50 and on because it affects their sex life,” she said. The laser works to stimulate the vaginal wall to generate collagen, elastin and increase blood vessels. “What that does is help the mucosal layer which is the vaginal lining layer. That keeps the vaginal wall healthy. Women will be able to enjoy the intimacy with their husbands,” said Jones Singer.

Ideas are easy, action is hard Commentary by Mike Colaw People often approach me with a new ministry idea. Honestly, I love it! There are some great ideas floating around out there. Homeless ministries, retirement religion home ministries, inner city art programs, ESL classes, adoption, missions trips to different countries, nutrition classes, rape prevention classes, ministries focused on those with disabilities, and even personal finance classes, just to name a few. The conversations almost always go the same way. • They let me know their area of passion. • They are deeply concerned for the church because it isn’t involved enough in that specific area. • They want me to preach and speak about it. • They want me to start a church wide movement. • They never offer to lead it themselves, usually stating that they are just too busy. I do believe God calls each of His followers to engage in some type of ministry. I also believe that many people don’t have time for God things because they are so busy with good things. We live in a day and age of activism awareness, but very few actually act. Most feel pity and have a passion to help those that are hurting in some way, but few will actually rearrange their busy life to engage. So they desperately work to blame someone for their disobedience. Excuses flow like Niagara Falls. The crazy thing is most excuses are good. Good people busy doing decent things. They are just so busy with good things they don’t have time for the best things. So I pray you become so convicted that you actually adopt, actually teach a class, actually go on a missions trip, actually teach an ESL class, actually go and serve the homeless, or possibly even spend one evening a week encouraging the elderly at a retirement home. Pastors can help equip you for works of service and even do some of these with you, but they can’t live your call for you.

Fitness coach to teach in Texas By Renee Larr • news@currentinfishers.com Fishers’ hip-hop fitness instructor, Robanne Robin, was recently inweight loss vited to lead motivational workouts for the Obesity Action Coalition’s national conference Aug. 13-16 in San Antonio, Texas. Robin has been working with OAC for the last three years leading workouts during each annual conference. The pairing can between Robin and OAC happened while she was browsing the web. “One night I was looking around the internet. I really wanted to get involved in obesity awareness and prevention,” she said. “It’s a huge problem everywhere for kids and adults. I’ve obviously struggled with it in my life having weighed 300 pounds for 10 years. I found The Obesity Action Coalition and wanted to see what they were all about.” Robin decided to reach out to the coalition and share her story. “I saw their conference that was coming up in Phoenix in 2013,” she said. “I emailed someone with the group saying I’m a fitness instructor, I’ve lost 150 pounds.

Robin’s own fitness and weight loss journey has helped to cement the relationship with OAC. “I have been overweight as a child, I’ve been anorexic, I’ve been bulimic. I’ve been over 300 pounds. I’ve also had bariatric surgery. Once people hear the bariatric surgery part they kind of tune me out. This is the first organization I’ve been a part of that promotes obesity awareness education and resources to fight obesity. It’s a non-judgmental environment. They’re really amazing,” Robin said.

Try Koko FitClub for 30 days with no risk or obligation.
Why I LOVE This Business! Fitness is a personal choice. Many of us don’t get serious about fitness until we reach a trigger point something in our lives that causes us to pause and realize now is the time to take control! My trigger was a milestone birthday. I joined Koko and never looked back. In fact, I recently purchased the Koko FitClubs in Fishers and Carmel. Before Koko, I was one of those people who failed at mainstream gyms. Perplexed was the best way to describe my gym experience. I didn’t know how to use the equipment, how much weight to use or how many reps to complete. And my form, well there wasn’t any form. There was no guidance offered as part of my membership. The help and support I needed to get and stay fit simply wasn’t there. Then I found Koko, and my life changed in so many ways. I’m getting what I want, how I want it and when I want it. Koko provides me everything I need to get on, and stay on, a healthy path.

July 27 HSE School Board recap By James Feichtner • james@youarecurrent.com A meeting of the Hamilton Southeastern School Board was held on education July 27 at 7 p.m. in the HSE Administration Building. All board members were in attendance. What happened: This meeting’s Snapshot of Success was awarded to Fishers High School teacher Andrew Smith. Smith recently competed in NBC’s military edition of American Ninja Warrior. Smith was chosen as one of the 400 out of 50,000 entries into the competition. Why it matters: In 2006 Smith had incurred several injuries including a broken neck and a stroke, which greatly impacted his family and his way of life. Through the inspiration of his family, Smith trained for four to six times a week for the competition. Smith’s success comes not from his appearance on television, but his physical journey to regain his confidence and strength. Hamilton Southeastern Schools was proud to honor Smith as not only an American Ninja Warrior, but as a great role model for students. ••• What happened: Gary Zgunda presented the board with the school’s updated non-

discrimination and anti-harassment policy and procedures. The board discussed the changes that had been made to the policy with the presence of the board’s accompanying attorney. Several issues with the way certain statements were worded within the text. Why it matters: The board ultimately
voted on a preliminary approval in favor of the changes with a 5-2 vote. Board members Sylvia Shepard and Karen Harmer were those opposing the vote due to concerns over the certain aspects of the policies wording. Another vote will be needed for the final approval of the changes at another meeting. ••• What happened: Cecilie Nunn presented the board with changes to facilities-use procedures, particularly focusing on the use of HSE sports facilities. Some of the suggested changes included charging local athletic groups for facility rental for use, requiring proof of non-for-profit status of groups, changing the charge of 10 percent gross revenue to 20 percent for tournaments run by sports leagues using a third party, reducing rental rate of tennis court use. Why it matters: The board approved the changes in procedures as presented except for one in particular which suggested increasing the required percent of a group’s membership to reside in the district from 75 to 90 percent. Board members felt that 90 percent was too high and suggested it remain at 75 percent. J E W E L R Y, H O U S E WA R E S and W H AT N O T 4 3 4 MASSACHUSE T TS AVENUE 111 W.

Kathleen Spears, president and chief bridge builder at Powers For Good told “Where’s Amy?” that she loved supporting Indianapolis Opera and could not believe the size of the lobsters at the event.
“Where’s Amy?” … I had a blast at the sixth annual Lobster Palooza with guests of honor Larry and Dinah Bird on the beautiful grounds of the Frank and Katrina Basile Opera Center. Guests were treated to refreshing cocktails and a feast of soft shell clams, corn on the cob, chicken and the biggest lobsters I have ever seen fresh from Maine. The sold-out event raised funds to help support the Indianapolis Opera, which is the only professional opera house in the state. “Where’s Amy?” can’t wait to get a group of friends together for the eight-week classes offered in the fall and spring that teach people of all ages about opera and music. I was delighted to hear they also offer a program that brings opera to senior citizens. The magical night ended with guests dancing to the beat of the Indianapolis-based band Henle and the Loops. “Where’s Amy?” spotted a bunch of Carmel residents at the event and hand’s down everyone who attended had a wonderful time.

A look back at how famed actress Frances Farmer left Hollywood for Indy
By Michelle Williams • news@currentinfishers.com Driving by Oaklawn Memorial Gardens has been commonplace for many Fishers and northeast-side residents over the last 60 years. The funeral center cover story has been serving Indianapolis residents since 1954. But in 1970, one such resident just happened to be famous. Her name was Frances Farmer – a headstrong woman in her time. Originally from Seattle, Wash., Frances made a national name for herself before her acting career ever began through an award-winning high school essay and a college trip to Russia. After a brief acting career that some describe as brilliant, Farmer spent the better part of eight years in and out of mental institutions. She had been diagnosed as a schizophrenic and struggled with alcoholism. Years after her life ended, author William Arnold’s account of her life entitled “Shadowland”, purported that Farmer had undergone a transorbital lobotomy during the years she was kept in sanitariums. However, Arnold later recanted the lobotomy allegation in a court case — although the rumor is still widely debated today. Following her release from the hospitals, Farmer found her way to Indianapolis. “She had married an Indy native named Lee Mikesell during her 1957-58 comeback, and she ended up in Indy after doing summer stock at the Avondale Playhouse in 1958,” said Jeff Kauffman, a researcher and journalist who has maintained extensive contact with Farmer’s friends and relatives. She later divorced Mikesell and bought a home at 5017 North Park Ave. She lived there for the greater part of her time spent in Indianapolis. She was discovered by executives at WFBM, and was offered a job hosting the afternoon television show “Frances Farmer Presents,” a daily series that showcased vintage films. It was among the first locally-produced television programs that had been broadcast in color. Although she had made a valiant comeback, she was fired by WFBM twice over a seven year period for erratic behavior and drunkenness. Farmer was reportedly a regular at Red Key Tavern on College Avenue. Owner Russ Settle tended bar and waited on Farmer on the evenings she’d visit. “She used a cigarette holder and drank Manhattans, quietly sitting in the red
booths, not paying much attention to her surroundings. Russel said that she was a handsome woman with a deep voice. When leaving she would walk by Russ saying; ‘Russel, you make the best Manhattans!’” said Lana Seacott, a 20-year employee of Red Key Tavern. After the falling out at WFBM, Farmer remained in Indianapolis for the rest of her life. She entered into the interior decorating business with her long-time friend, Jean Ratcliffe. She also began writing her autobiography, “Will There Really Be a Morning?” She and Ratcliffe suffered a failed investment in a cosmetics company that cost Farmer all of her remaining assets, including her house on Park Avenue. She spent her remaining years in a rented farmhouse at 6000 Moller Road. In January of 1970, she visited the doctor complaining of trouble swallowing. Farmer underwent a biopsy at Indianapolis Community Hospital that revealed an inoperable malignant tumor. Months later, she died on Aug. 1, 1970. Accounts imply that Ratcliffe handled the funeral arrangements and Farmer’s burial at Oaklawn Memorial Gardens. To this day, Farmer remains in an indoor crypt at the east side of Oaklawn’s cemeteries. Every once in a while, a distant relative or an inquisitive admirer will stop by to visit and recall the troubled, yet remarkable life that she lived right here in Indianapolis.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Did we speak too soon here? A few weeks ago in this space, we labeled billionaire presidential candidate Donald Trump a buffoon. While that may be true, given his bluster and off-color comments, we’re taking a closer look. What we most admire about Trump is this: He (for now) is a Republican with more than enough fortitude to tell the Republican National Committee where to get off. In truth, the Party of Wimps, is hurting Trump. Its leaders have no clue how damaged its brand really is. It began with George W. Bush and his spineless colleagues in the House and Senate. They actually brought rise to the new liberalism. Think about that. As we see it, Trump is holding a powerful card these days, the one that he may turn over and show him moving to independent status. Yes, an “I” as Ross Perot once was. As an independent, he would throw the whole GOP nominating process into a bona fine mess, because he would, without a doubt, cause no small amount of squabbling among the leadership. Gall? Nerve? Guts? Smarts? We’ll go with the latter two at this point. He’s the only one in the current candidate pool with enough spine to say what he truly believes (even if he’s dead wrong on some fronts), not what “we” want to hear, and now it seems to us that he’s the leader in the clubhouse with respect to telling terrorists, nukeholding nations and general opponents of the U.S. that enough is enough. Donald Trump, independent. Can you imagine the wailing and gnashing of teeth, to speak nothing of the meteoric rise of angst, at RNC offices (Dysfunction Central) if he declares that designation? If he remains, could he rebrand the party? We’ll see. Brian Kelly, publisher, and Steve Greenberg, general manager, are co-owners of Current Publishing, LLC. Write them at info@ youarecurrent.com.

Commentary by Terry Anker
While it seems summer has just begun, the kids are already buying backpacks and planning class schedules. Some of their friends, we’re told, have already found their way back into the classroom. For our younger ones, life is fairly simple. We follow the prescribed list provided by the school for supplies; and, we clean out the closet to see which clothes fit from the previous year. Although in our house, we may have reached the penultimate occasion as our youngest has finally matched in height to his big brother. Never daunted, we confirm classes and plan for back-to-school night. Likewise, our older is preparing to return to his second year at Indiana University. This time the trip is old hat. There will be little fumbling to find classroom buildings, the best place to get pizza, and the bookstore which sells its wares at a slightly lower price. Instead, our preparations have turned towards more adult topics. Along the way, we have attempted to directly
address difficult matters like substance abuse, interpersonal conflict, human sexuality, and domestic finance. While each of these has its own peculiarities, talking dollars and cents can be the most awkward. College students are burdened with debt, along with their parents, at a rate unprecedented in human history. At the same time, irresponsible teen sexuality is on the decline. Is it possible that we’ve talked enough about the spread of disease but too little about the insidious spread of easy credit? What does it mean to be a debtor? To our credit statement, to our spirits, and to our future? Can debt be smart? When is it most assuredly foolish? Creditors can be partners or predators – it is imperative that we know the difference.

Q U O T E O F T HE WEE K Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions. – Albert Einstein
All summer I have felt tired. At first I thought it was just my body finally slowing down after 10 months of juggling teaching, parenting and marriage. Then humor I suspected that my thyroid gland was the culprit. Most recently I’ve blamed the stupid training program I’m doing for a stupid triathlon that a stupid brother-in-law, or BIL, talked me in to. But alas, I now know the real reason for my frequent lethargy despite 10-hour-a-night sleeping marathons. Here’s what went down. While vacationing with my entire family in South Carolina, a different BIL made a plea for Advil. My room was the closest, so I dashed in and grabbed an old Aleve bottle that contained what I thought were an assortment of various pain relievers. I sifted through and selected two small orangeybrown caplets and handed them over. Then, because it was my night to prepare dinner, I headed to Publix. Twenty minutes later I received a phone call from my sister asking if I’d accidently given her husband Ambien. I laughed out loud and said, “Of course not! I don’t even own sleeping pills. And I’ve been working out of the same bottle for the past few months. Those were definitely Advil!” Turns out, they were most definitely not Advil, but honest-to-God 5 mg zolpidem tartrates. Luckily the BIL whom I drugged was fine after a long nap, but I spent the next hour crying, extremely embarrassed and utterly confused by my mistake. How had Ambien even made its way in there? The last time I remember having a prescription for it was 2007! Could these be the same ones? Regardless, the mystery of my low energy levels is now solved. Every time I thought I was treating a headache I was actually ingesting a sedative! My family thinks the whole thing is hilarious, and won’t let me forget it. “Anybody have an Advil? I really need to sleep tonight!” or “Danielle, is this blue pill Aleve or Viagra?” Clearly, I’m surrounded by comedians. I’m just thankful I solved my fatigue problem before the triathlon. Talk about stupid! Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may e-mail her at danielle@currentinfishers. com.

Let’s play Bocce Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Our friends Len and Helen invited us and some other church members to their house to play Bocce. Len read it was humor a great sport for Unitarians. But it might have said septuagenarians—he wasn’t sure. A player tosses the pallino, a small ball, down the court and then teams compete to see who can throw additional balls, which are a bit larger, closest to the target ball. Simple enough, but soon a dispute arose when Myrna heaved the pallino onto the neighbor’s lawn and we didn’t know whose turn was next or how many points her team lost, and Martin wanted to know if we all stunk so much it was time to find another church activity. To avoid any future confusion, I bought a book called “The Joy of Bocce.” I already owned “The Joy of Cooking” and “The Joy of Sex,” although both of them were put in storage before we started to remodel our kitchen. The author summarizes, “Some people think it’s just a game of throwing bigger balls at a smaller ball.” Then the rest of the book is about how to throw a big ball at a smaller
ball. Mario wonders why bocce can’t get more TV coverage. (Maybe when this Donald Trump thing dies down.) Determining whose ball is closest to the pallino is exacting. “When the distances are smaller than your foot, use a pencil, pieces of twigs and even a car antenna.” Apparently, the idea of a tape measure never dawned on these people. Precise measurement is important. When you have eight solid wooden balls the size of grapefruits, unlimited beer and cranky old people, you want to avoid any potential conflict. There is also a chapter on Bocce etiquette, which includes not thinking too long over a shot, and maintaining emotional control. But my favorite is number three: DON’T WANDER OFF. Maybe that’s why Len keeps leaving me a voicemail message asking where I am. ( For Dick’s complete column go to www. currentinfishers.com) Dick Wolfsie is an author, columnist, and speaker.

Climate change: The real deal Editor, If one follows popular media, one is likely to “know” that “scientific evidence is overwhelming that man made climate change is real and happening now”. It is correct that climate change is real – it has been for four and a half billion years – but the “man made” part is minor. My credentials; I am retired. I have never worked for an energy company. I’ve never accepted a grant. My Purdue degree is in a natural science and I have actively studied it ever since. I am an environmentalist. I cannot be written off as a “science denier.” What I am going to tell you now is understood by few because it’s not what the political grant money supports to get the prescribed answers, Carbon in the atmosphere and oceans is much more controlled by volcanos than by humanity. The major causes of climate also include sun spots, sun flares and Milankovich cycles (Earth’s wobble and orbital shifts).
There has been limited press on the fraud of how temperatures have been reported and who has reported them for what reasons. The preponderance of responsible climate researchers report that world temperatures have not increased for 17 years and that we actually are now in a 10 year cooling cycle. Apparently there is even more, not less, ice in the Arctic. I also study world politics more than most. That identifies me as a little nuts, but it’s clear that “global warming/climate change” is a political movement to compromise the greatest, most generous country this world has ever known by ending what’s left of its free market. Be careful who and what you believe, promote and ask for. Redistribution of wealth, which this fraud is really about, is best accomplished by rewarding free enterprise. Please don’t ask for more destructive government regulation. Mic Mead

Go behind the scenes of the Great American Songbook Competition The 2015 Songbook All-Stars perform a second group number called, “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” (Photos by Brielle Saggesse) Salon 01 gives image makeovers to the Top 10 Finalists including Songbook All-Star Lucas DeBard, winner of the event. During the competition, DeBard sang “I’m Gonna Sit Right Down And Write Myself A Letter” and “I’ll See You In My Dreams.” DeBard said, “I’d really like to establish that I don’t want to be Michael Bublé, I don’t want to be Harry Connick Jr., I want to be Lucas DeBard. I want to come in with individuality so that they see Lucas and not something else.” Songbook All-Star Madelyn Steuer starts her hair treatments for her own image transformation. Her songs for the competition were “Ev’rything I’ve Got” and “P.S. I Love You.” Steuer said, “I have a retro persona, in general, so I want to go for the 50s or 60s bombshell look. I want to surprise (the audience) because it’ll have that sex appeal even though I’m little. “
Songbook All-Star Katie Swaney waits to start her image transformation. She performed the musical theatre songs, “My White Knight” and “Show Me.” “I knew image was important (to a performer) but didn’t realize really how important it was until Mr. Alvarez told us today about a social experiment with a famous violinist,” Swaney said. “When (the violinist) went out no one recognized him without the stage, the suit and the hair. It’s all about how people recognize you and how you present yourself.” Kathleen Muloma, Songbook All-Star and Carmel High School graduate, performs a solo in “Bridge Over Troubled Water.” For the competition, Muloma sang “What’s New” and “I’m Beginning To See The Light.”
Kristin Barnes, Songbook All-Star and Carmel High School graduate sang “100 Easy Ways to Lose a Man” and “So In Love” for her part in the competition. “My favorite memory from this week was whenever all of us would just sit around and make music together,” Barnes said. “I’m just continually blown away by the talent and blessed to be here.”
Compiled by Brielle Saggesse news@currentinfishers.com On July 25, finalists from around the country gathered to perform in the Great American Songbook performance Competition. Current’s Brielle Saggesse got a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to be a performer by capturing singers before their performances at the Image Workshop on July 24, and during the competition. Micki Stirsman, owner and creative director of Salon 01, and Aquage co-founder Luis Alvarez, who led the Image Workshop for the 2015 Songbook All-Stars on July 24 spoke to the finalists about image on stage and off. Stirsman said, “You need to know what it is you want people to see you for. An artist on stage commands attention. Your voice is your art and that’s what we want people to see.” Stirsman and Alvarez discussed how to build a performer’s image from choosing the right color for a gown to creating drama through contrast. “We can’t help you with notes be we can sure help you with the note you put out, physically,” Alvarez said.

Born in New Orleans and receptive to its musical traditions performance from childhood, Harry Connick Jr. has built a career that goes far beyond the Crescent City. He’s had mass-media exposure as a judge on “American Idol” since January of last year. But he was well known for decades before that, his fame especially boosted by his soundtrack recording for “When Harry Met Sally.” Signed to Columbia records at 18, he’s now 47 and still based as a musician and family man in New Orleans. From there he has lent conspicuous support to rebuilding efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, while maintaining a broad-based international career that encompasses acting on TV and in movies, in addition to a few writing and performing credits on Broadway, including a revival of “On a Clear Day You Can See Forever.” His songwriting is often featured on tour, and past Indianapolis appearances have included both big-band and small-group gigs. Stylistically, he’s comfortable in both jazz and pop-oriented contexts, playing piano and singing.

His jazz development was guided by Ellis Marsalis, patriarch of jazz’s most notable family, and James Booker, a revered exponent of the New Orleans piano style. “There’s nobody that could even remotely come close to his piano-playing ability. It can’t be done,” Connick once told an NPR interviewer. “I’ve played Chopin etudes, I’ve done the whole thing, but there is nothing harder than James.” He performs at 7:30 p.m., Aug. 6 at The Center for the Performing Arts.

SECOND SATURDAY GALLERY WALK AUGUST 8, 5–9 P.M.
Concert to benefit Autism Speaks By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com
Rachael Mellor, who has been singing since she was 6 years old, has found a way to combine her two passions. performance Two years ago, her son Logan, who will be a third grader this fall, was diagnosed with high functioning autism. “She was devastated, but yet totally embraced it,” said Robin Reeder, her aunt who lives near Carmel on the north side of Indianapolis. “So she did a fundraiser concert for Autism Speaks in Pennsylvania last year and it was a great success so she did it again this year.” Reeder made arrangements through Autism Speaks Indiana to arrange an Indianapolis concert fundraiser for their organization featuring Mellor, who lives in the Pittsburgh area. The Songs for a Cause concert will feature Mellor and Nathaniel Licht, also from the Pittsburgh area. The performance is set for 8 p.m. on Aug. 14 at Indiana Landmarks Center’s
Cook Theater, 1201 Central Ave., Indianapolis. “I’ve been wanting to get Rachael out here for a concert for a long time to get her some exposure,” Reeder said. “She’s headlined at the Hard Rock Cafe in Pittsburgh and just been in Nashville. She recorded and wrote about Logan’s autism so that will be a song she will be singing when she’s here in concert. Licht, who sings and plays the piano, has performed with Mellor in many shows as well as being members of the bands, Dreamscape and Premier, in the Pittsburgh area. They will perform music from Whitney Houston, Elton John, Christina Aguilera, among others. “She is pretty much a jack of all trades. She’ll do pop, she’ll do country and she does ballads and some original songs,” Reeder said. Cecily Terhune, a 2011 Carmel High School graduate who plays the saxophone, and musical partner Brian Bosley will perform an opening jazz set with pianist Daniel Yount. The cost is $20 (cash only) at the door. Doors open at 7 p.m. A cash bar will be provided by Lockerbie Pub Catering.

Screen time and your health Commentary by David Pletzer, MD
Tammy Wittmann, OD
Did You Know...

Mobile technology puts the world at our fingertips – literally. While there are many benefits to having news, inforwellness mation, entertainment and social media on demand, studies now show that increasing amounts of “screen time” can have a negative impact on personal health. Research conducted by the National Institutes of Health reveals that extended exposure to screens of all types – TV, computers, smartphones, tablets and video games – increases the likelihood of weight gain and obesity and may cause attention-deficit issues. Anxiety and depression are also linked to excessive screen use because there is often no way for people to offset or “work through” the various stimuli received from these devices. Screen time can also affect quality and amount of sleep, which can lead to additional health concerns. It’s estimated that people of all ages spend an average of three hours a day just watching TV. That’s why it’s important for adults and parents to set limits on screen time. According to doctors and other health experts, children under two should not spend any time watch-
Dispatches
ing TV or using screens. Children and adults should limit screen time to just two hours per day, excluding time needed for school or work. Setting guidelines as a family will help everyone maintain good screen-time habits. Most physicians recommend discontinuing use of screens at least an hour before bed and during mealtime. It’s important for parents to act as good role models for their children by abiding by screen-time limits. There are other ways to counteract the effects of screen time: Get moving. People are nearly always sedentary during screen time. Commit to getting at least one hour of moderate exercise each day to stay healthy. Encourage socialization. Some screen time can be beneficial – especially when associated with a family or social activity. Interactive video games and family movie nights are ways that screens can help promote conversation, learning and togetherness. David Pletzer, MD, specializes in family medicine.

Traditional vs. alternative – Traditional doctors aren’t always highly supportive of alternative therapies. There are several that are so effective that doctors often do recommend them: 1. Almond milk for insomnia 2. Fish oil supplements for multiple reasons 3. Tumeric as an anti-inflammatory 4. Raw honey for antiviral and antibacterial properties Source: MSN.com
Chlorine in Your Water: Is it Causing Problems in Your Home? For more than 100 years, chlorine has been added to public water supplies as a disinfectant to prevent pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses and protozoans, from growing. Chlorine has proven to be extremely effective in killing most microorganisms that grow in water supply reservoirs, on the walls of water mains and in storage tanks. Without chlorination (or some other form of water disinfection treatment), millions of people would be exposed to diseases and infections, such as cholera, salmonella, dysentery and others. Today, the U. S. has one of the safest water supplies in the world. Although there are several methods available that can help eliminate disease-causing microorganisms in water, chlorination is the most commonly used. Unfortunately, chlorine in our water supply can have a variety of unpleasant effects: • Tastes and odors • Strips protective oils from skin and hair • Excess drying and wrinkling of skin • Deteriorates rubber seals in water-using appliances • Causes dry, brittle hair and fades colored hair • Fades clothes

‘Perpetrate’ or ‘perpetuate’ Commentary by Jordan Fischer Question: “Here is one you might want to comment on: Does someone perpetrate a fraud or perpetuate a grammar guy fraud – or does it depend on how long he/ she intends to do it?” – (Wayne Sturtevant) Answer: Thanks for the question, Wayne. It’s funny you should mention fraud… The Grammar Guy column has been on a bit of a hiatus these last few weeks as I was in South Bend covering a trial dealing with, of all things, murder and insurance fraud. I suppose it makes sense to resume my grammar musings where my trial coverage left off. At any rate, what we have here are nearhomophones that both come to us from Latin. “Perpetrate” derives from the Latin perpetrare, or “to perform.” On the other hand, “perpetuate” comes from perpetuare, meaning “to make permanent.” You can tell from those definitions, I imag-
ine, that “perpetrate” is going to be the appropriate word generally when dealing with crime. You perpetrate a heist. You perpetrate identity theft. You might even perpetrate some jaywalking, if you’re feeling really rebellious. Fraud is an interesting example, though, because unlike many other crimes which are encapsulated into a small timeframe, fraud can continue on at length. That means once the fraud is in place, you would be totally appropriate to say you are “perpetuating” a fraud. Of course, you would “perpetrate” it in the first place – something has to already be in action before you can perpetuate it. All that being said, crime is bad and you shouldn’t do it … although I might be able to overlook jaywalking. Jordan Fischer is a contributing columnist for Current Publishing. To ask Jordan a grammar question, write him at rjfische@ gmail.com.

Estonia is a tiny country along the Baltic Sea. In a very real way, the country was born singing. travel Beginning in the 13th century, the region of Estonia, lying north of Latvia and west of Russia, was ruled by Denmark, Poland, Sweden and finally, Russia. Residents, most of them peasants, considered themselves “country people,” bound to whichever foreign power controlled them. In 1857, Johann Voldemar Jannsen, publisher of the first Estonian language newspaper, began calling his readers “Estonians.” He and his daughter then organized a “song fest,” held in June 1869 in Tartu. About 12,000 people listened for two days as an 822-member choir sang folk songs, encouraging Estonians to see themselves as a separate people. After four more festivals, the event moved to Tallinn, Estonia’s largest city. The sense of national identity and cohesion created by the song fests led to Estonia’s declaration of independence from Russia in 1918. In 1940, the Soviet Union took control of Estonia, along with the other Baltic states of Latvia and Lithuania. The Tallinn song fests continued, with Russian songs added. An enormous stage,
Tallinn, Estonia, Song Festival Grounds (Photo by Don Knebel)
holding 15,000 singers, was built on a hillside above the harbor. In September 1988, 300,000 Estonians, nearly one-fourth of the country’s population, assembled before and on the Tallinn stage. They sang patriotic songs, raised the banned Estonian flag and demanded independence, leading to sustained protests in what became known as the “Singing Revolution.” On August 20, 1991, Estonia, called the “singing nation,” successfully declared its independence as the Republic of Estonia. Every five years, more than 100,000 people
come together in Tallinn, where they listen to choirs including 30,000 performers while a flame atop a 42-meter tower celebrates the country’s freedom. Because of its importance in forming a nation, the Estonia Song Festival is on the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage list. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP.

Traditional master bath renovation for resale Priority 1: “I love to take baths, but the tub was just too small to really enjoy.” Priority 3: “Create a timeless design for resale purposes.”
Before
TIMELESS DESIGN: Polished chrome hardware, lighting and plumbing were used to create a timeless and traditional design that is sure to cater to all crowds for resale purposes.
SHOWER FUNCTION: A rear bench and adjustable handheld shower allowed for a multi-purpose shower experience.
AFTER Priority 2: “Integrate handheld showerhead and bench for an improved shower experience.” Priority 4: “Redesign the vanity for more usable storage and countertop space.” Priority 5: “Recreate my grandmother’s floor design to honor her memory.”
THE VANITY: More storage and countertop space was created by lengthening the vanity by 6 inches and reversing the false front drawers.
Year Built: 1991 Project Type: Master Bathroom Neighborhood: Mallard Crossing Location: Indianapolis, IN
NEW TUB: The old tub deck was removed to make room for a larger soaker tub. A frameless glass enclosure gives an updated look. Larry Greene is the owner of Case Design/Remodeling. You may e-mail him at lgreene@ caseindy.com. To see more before and after pictures of this project, visit caseindy.com/blog.
FLOORING: Custom black flowers were randomly included in the tile design as a way to honor a family member’s memory.
