Lantern Road Elementary School’s display case in honor of Veteran’s Day 2013. (Submitted Photo.)

Lantern Road Elementary honors veterans By Holly Kline • news@currentinfishers.com U.S. armed forces veterans were honored for their service and sacrifice yesterday at Lantern Road Elementary, where the school’s Education annual popular Veteran’s Day program was held. Organized by the LRE related arts teachers, this year marks the 15th year for the show. It was originally started by music teacher Connie LaRocco and art teacher Carrie Billman, whose husbands are both Gulf War veterans. LaRocco explained that the LRE students invite the veterans (usually family members) and that this year they invited 105, including five World War II veterans and one Korean War veteran. “It is always a bittersweet moment when we realize each year our number of World War II veterans is shrinking,” Billman said. “We have lost the World War II veteran who used to play ‘Taps’ for us and the World War II veteran who used to sing ‘God Bless America’ at every show, and beloved grandparents of students.” The show is for veterans; they are allowed to bring

one guest and the students perform. This year the kids wore red, white, and blue, and sang nine songs while their artwork was displayed in a PowerPoint presentation. Students also brought in photos of their veterans that were shown during the performances. The LRE Theater Club presented a short play based on the children’s book, “Imogene’s Last Stand” and the third- and fourth-graders wrote letters and poetry that were included with the written program. “The highlight of the program every year is when the students sing the Armed Forces Medley,” Billman said, “and the veterans stand to be recognized by their branch of the military.” After the show, students escort their veterans to one of three patriotic bulletin boards where they could pose for photos. There was also a “Try on Table” where kids could try on combat boots, jackets and helmets. “The show is different every year, but the main theme is showing respect and appreciation to our veterans,” Billman said. “The students take this show very seriously and are honored to have the opportunity to thank so many veterans who have served our country.”

Rebooting a superhero franchise is a trickier business than it sounds. Hollywood attempted to bring back Superman a few years ago, and the results were just OK. Now they’ve tried again, and the results are similarly so-so. Read more at currentnightandday.com.

For more information, call 452-3690. Water main break – A water main break closed a short stretch of 113th Street along Geist Reservoir early Tuesday. Water was cascading down the street at 1:30 a.m. and crews closed 113th at Ringer and Olio until Citizen’s Energy crews could make repairs. The road has since reopened. Approximately 30 homes were without water, but none reported damage. The water eventually flowed into Geist.

Fishers Town Council update What happened: A request to approve 2014 unwanted animal services contract with the Humane Society for Hamilton County. What it means: The budget request will be increased by $5,885 from 2013 due to a calculation based on animal counts for 2013 year to date and what is anticipated based on current trends. What happened: Request to approve Letter of Intent Agreement with Saxony Development for Saxony Hall, Lake and Beach. What it means: The Town of Fishers and Interstate Holdings proposed an agreement that calls for the dedication of land to the Town of Saxony Mixed Use Development, construction of Saxony Hall with adjacent restroom and transfer of responsibilities associated with Saxony Lake & Beach to Town.

What’s next: Saxony will contribute $536,000 for the project, which includes Saxony Hall and adjacent restrooms. The Town of Fishers will donate $586,100 for Saxony Hall. The Town will be responsible for the pathway and beach, while Saxony will be responsible for the grounds and landscaping.

What happened: A request to approve an ordinance for the transition from the Town of Fishers to the City of Fishers, including the establishment of City Legislative Districts. What it means: The adoption of six legislative districts and includes provisions for the first election of city officers.

What’s next: District maps have been revised, which complies with the state law.

What happened: Request to approve an ordinance of the Town of Fishers, Hamilton County, adopting a food and beverage excise tax. What it means: In 2013, the Indiana State Legislature passed a law allowing the Town of Fishers to adopt a Food and Beverage Excise Tax starting next year, not to exceed 1 percent. The Town of Fishers wishes to pursue the tax to diversify revenues, keeping residential property taxes low to focus on community and economic development.

What’s next: There will be a public hearing tonight at Town Hall, 1 Municipal Dr. at 7 p.m. for the public to comment on the proposed tax.

What happened: Request for median cut on 126th Street at Longleaf Lane in the entrance of Sterling Green Subdivision. What it means: The Town constructed the third phase of 126th Street and 2011-2012 between SR 37 and Promise Road. As a result, the construction to the entrance of Sterling Green subdivision was limited to right-in, right-out access only. The Engineering Department has said that the median is needed to eliminate conflict points for left turners in and out due to proximity of the turn lane to the turn lane at 126th Street and Cumberland Road. The motion was not passed.

Festival of Carols has 3 shows

By Dawn Pearson • news@currentinfishers.com

All you Scrooges and Grinches, shut up and SING! Don’t let the holidays get you down: hop aboard the 2013 Festival of Carols, and experience one of three performances concert that include two shows at The Palladium in Carmel and one show at the Scottish Rite Cathedral in downtown Indianapolis. The Fishers High School choir will join the 150 voices of the Indianapolis Symphonic Choir, the Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra, Circle City Ringers handbell choir, soprano Maria Jette (as heard on NPR’s “Prairie Home Companion”), and the Butler University Men’s a capella group, Out of the Dog House. Fishers resident Brian Flora is a member of the ISC. “Christmas is one of the most magical times of the year,” Jessica Kiefer of the Bohlsen Group said. “Taking an evening out of the bustle of the season to enjoy family and friends may be the best gift of the entire season.” The annual show will sweep in the holiday season with music such as “O Holy Night,” “Joy to the World,” and a completely memorable version of “The 12 Days of Christmas.” Audience members may get their chance to sing along as well. “Festival of Carols is a great opportunity to enjoy with the entire family during the holidays,” said Michael Pettry, executive director of Indianapolis Symphonic Choir. “It isn›t unusual to see mom and dad with the kids, as well as the grandparents, all together at the performance for a holiday outing.” Other music will include the “Hallelujah Chorus,” “Somewhere In My Memory,” and “Santa

Baby.” “The bottom line: Festival of Carols is one of those evergreen holiday must-do›s of the upcoming season. The performances have something for everyone … for kids from one to 92, as the song goes,” Pettry said. Pettry said last year›s performances all sold out well in advance. “I was thrilled, of course, but not really surprised. Looking ahead, we suspect these shows will attract capacity audiences as well, especially given the addition of the Fishers High School Silver Classic choir as our special guest partner choir.” “Families are looking to create new holiday traditions and memories. Nothing equals getting dressed up, having a cup of cocoa, meeting Santa and hearing your favorite Christmas carols in a world-class performance hall,” he said. “Santa will be in the lobby before and after each performance, and he may even make a cameo appearance on stage during the show. Ho, ho, ho!” If you go: The Festival of Carols, an annual event featuring the 150-voice Indianapolis Symphonic Choir with the Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra and Circle City Ringers, will perform at two venues: the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts, 1 Center Green, Carmel; and the Scottish Rite Cathedral, 650 N. Meridian St., Indianapolis. The Festival of Carols will perform at 7 p.m. Dec. 8 at the Scottish Rite Cathedral and 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. Dec. 22 at the Palladium. Ticket prices are from $15 to $38 for all performances.

A new home for FHS and HSE seniors By Julie Roberts • news@currentinfishers.com Seniors at Hamilton Southeastern and Fishers High School will have a new home base to call their own. On Nov. 5, both high schools hosted groundbreaking ceremonies education to build future senior academies intended to offer a more flexible and adaptable educational environment. “We’re addressing a capacity issue,” said Hamilton Southeastern Principal Matt Kegley. The primary goal while designing the academy was to “redefine what that institutional space looks like,” so that it addresses the transition beyond high school, whether it’s college or work. One of the enhancements offered by the academy is a Learning Hub. The architectural team designing the space, working alongside teacher representatives, wanted to build a more flexible space to address changing student needs. They designed movable walls and collaboration areas more conducive to team projects and group problem-solving. “We’re also creating more casual areas to do some independent work. We’ve built those in the commons area,” Kegley said. He suggests students could stay after school and work in these areas. In addition, the senior academies will offer more opportunities for students to take advanced placement and dual-credit courses. Kegley said they will be collaborating with local col-

leges and universities to expand course offerings so that college level classes can be offered in this space. He envisions extended hours beyond the traditional 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. model, offering classes into the evening as well. The academy lays the groundwork for that. Each senior academy will have 41 classrooms, spanning two floors, and will create additional space for 1,000 students. This will bring the student capacity to 3,700 for both schools. The academies will be open for use when school begins in 2015. Kegley clearly wants to prepare students for the world of work. In that world, “You’ve got to be able to work with colleagues to come to some end product. The academy space we will create will promote that further.” For future updates about the high school academies, go to www.hse.k12.in.us or call 594-4190.

The site offers streamlined content, simple straightforward navigation, and simple clicks to call or access social media channels. “It’s gratifying to see the Hamilton County CVB’s hard work to showcase their amazing destination interactively acknowledged through this award,” stated Simpleview Vice President Greg Evans. “Hamilton County CVB is an example of a DMO that is pushing the envelope while maintaining best practices, and this award helps highlight their efforts and achievements.” The Davey Awards are based on their strength from big ideas - rather than stratospheric budgets - and are judged by the International Academy of the Visual Arts, an invitationonly body from firms such as Condé Nast, Disney, GE, Microsoft, Monster.com and others. City ranked as best place to live – NerdWallet, a consumer advocacy Website, has analyzed national and statewide data to determine the best places in Indiana for raising a family. Hamilton County was home to the No. 1 (Carmel) and No. 2 (Fishers) best towns for young families. Noblesville ranked No. 8 on the list and Westfield came in at No. 11. The overall score for each city was derived from the following measures: public school rating, median home value, ongoing cost of homeownership, median income and economic growth. 37 Indiana cities and towns designated as places by the U.S. Census were included in this analysis. Only places with a population greater than 25,000 were considered.

Rail or bus? Who pays?

Because you give...

A potential mass transit system that would run between Hamilton County and downtown Indianapolis is still transportation up for debate: would residents rather use a bus rapid transit or light rail transit? The question depends on where the money comes from. “The issue of funding is yet to be determined,” said Mike Colby, Fishers Town Council member. The Central Indiana Regional Transportation Authority currently provides the Express Bus with stops at 106th Street and Lantern Road. According to Colby the Express Bus is “being utilized but not to the extent to reduce traffic flow on the interstate. “We need a way to help move traffic to support the transit system,” he said. “The $64,000 question is: Should there be a rail system or bus system and who should pay for it? There are some residents, according to Colby, who do not want to pay for a rail system because they said they would not use it, and others feel that they already pay enough income

tax as it is. The legislature has not yet approved for a mass transit system. However, a study group is currently discussing the system, weighing the options. Advantages of a mass transit system, according to proponents, include the environment, economy, quality of life, and a cost effective way to reach more people. For example, rapid transit can eliminate thousands of vehicles from crowded roadways, reducing energy consumption and pollution. Economically, the transportation system brings opportunities for the development of areas near transportation routes, creating jobs and connecting workers to where they work. As well, commuters are able to spend more time with friends and family. The proposed budget for the system would cost about $1.3 billion to build the first phase in Marion and Hamilton Counties and would cost $136 million annual to operate once completed in 2021. Counties would decide individually when to put the matter on the ballot and would not be subject to a new tax until after the residents of that county voted to become part of the system.

Reforming Indy Pilates Studio, a 2,500 square foot facility at Fall Creek and Brooks School Roads recently celebrated its grand opening and held its first classes on Nov. 4. (Submitted Photo)

Pilates studio welcomes all

By Nancy Edwards • nancy@youarecurrent.com

Bored with your same workout routine of treadmills and lifting weights? Do you dislike the typical crowded gym atnow open mosphere? Would you like a friendly greeting and be treated like family each time you walk in the door? Reforming Indy Pilates Studio may be the perfect answer. The 2,500-square-foot facility at Fall Creek and Brooks School roads recently celebrated its grand opening and held its first classes on Nov. 4. The Pilates studio began in 2007 by Kristen Abbott with two locations in the greater Indianapolis area; one facility focused on Pilates, while the other on fitness. The facilities combined into one location in Carmel two years ago. Fishers resident Ashley Gettinger began to see a need for a Pilates studio in Fishers and decided to open its new location. The 55-mnute classes, including Ballet Barre, Body Burn, Yoga, Total TREX and Balanced Body Education, focus on strengthening, toning and cardio. Each guest can attend an introductory session to help him or her decide on a plan that works best. Some people want to focus on exercises for help healing their back, others may

want to tone their stomach and then there are the “hard core cardio junkies,” according to Riana Schneider, studio manager for Reforming Indy Pilates. “The clients are really coming from all walks of life,” Schneider said. “Some people want to focus on weight loss, others haven’t moved in years, and older women and men want to keep up with their grandkids. We get a lot of people who go to physical therapy, their insurance runs out or they’ve graduated from physical therapy and their doctor suggests they do Pilates, which helps their back, spine and neck. The clients find out how much (Pilates) has helped with their injury and creates strength.” The warm, friendly attention compliments the studio’s style. The quiet spaciousness and many rooms down a long hallway delivers a spa-type aura, along with fitness clothing and scarves for sale near the reception desk. Reforming Indy is offering a $39 one-hour, one-on-one introductory, private session with an instructor. Additional specials offer three reformer classes for $40 (one regular class is $30 a session) and five fitness classes for $30 (normally one class is $18 a session). For more information, please visit www.reformingindy.com or call 570.8800.

Fair dealing Commentary by Terry Anker LAX shooter Paul Ciancia, a 23-year-old Catholic school graduate and son of a well-regarded public safety official, believed that the Transportation Security Agency had abused its authority over the American public. Whether revolutionary or anti-social zealot, this young man is emblematic of a growing mood among many who realize the promise of opportunity in America is not guaranteed. Confidence in our leaders is at all-time low and the airwaves are filled with examples of abundant equivocation on the part of those in whom we have invested our trust. I have never been much of a revolutionary myself – when in college in student leadership we were much more likely to work with the administrators than to chain ourselves to the president’s office. And the question remains, can one ever justify terror whether a radical or not? But we always believed that those in power included the dissent in their consideration. It did not seem that their power was used to suppress our point of view.

Government is a good thing, creating the framework that enables civil society to operate. But those governed have to believe that this investiture of power is just. The accusation of illegal eavesdropping in the private sector has led to the immediate firing of the low-level staff involved, to extensive criminal investigations, to the closing of the 168-year-old newspaper where they worked, and to the public interrogation of the 80-year-old owner who ultimately managed the staff along with tens of thousands of other employees. Meanwhile, a federal agency (NSA) spied on millions of Americans, foreign leaders and, according to recent report, the ex-wives and in-laws of interested government employees, yet no one is being asked to account. Their boss, President Obama, has not been called to testify. Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentincarmel. com.

Have you heard about the Humane Society for Hamilton County’s Survivor Program? If you haven’t, you should know it’s grossly underfunded. You should also know you can make a difference. Current, Kingston’s Music Showcase and 3Ds Pub & Café are teaming to benefit the Survivor Program with an evening of dining, dancing and donating. It all unfolds at 6 p.m. Nov. 27 at 3Ds, 13644 N. Meridian St., Carmel. Yes, it’s a chance to pay forward the night before Thanksgiving. Please consider joining the crowd as we all try to make a difference for the canines and felines that are very much in need. If you’re not headed out of town, we’d love to have you join us. If you have family or friends coming into town for the holiday weekend, please consider bringing them. Barometer Soup is donating the performance, and here’s why: Some of the animals arriving at the society are in need of immediate, emergency medical care, some of it lifesaving. It boils down to a second chance for the patients. There simply is not enough money to help every injured or sickly animal. If a dog is hit by a car, in order to save the pooch’s life it will take every bit of $2,500 or more, and so every dime raised at this event will go toward providing the medical care needed. While there is no cover charge for this fundraiser, donations gladly will be accepted at the door. Please help us help the Humane Society beef up the Survivor Program. By the way, we’re told some furry “celebrities” may make an appearance. If you need additional incentive, your donations are, indeed, tax-deductible. We’re strongly with the Humane Society on this: We believe the world is a much better place with these pets in it. For more information, please call the society at 773-4974.

Last week you may recall reading about my younger son assaulting his brother half way between Louisville and Indianapolis humor and the subsequent improvement in their relationship. What I didn’t mention was another unforeseen positive consequence of what is now known as the “Fight of 2013.” After Andrew punched his teasing sibling in the temple, my husband and I grounded him for one week. No friends to play with, no leaving the house other than for school or practices, and most significantly, at least in his 12-year-old eyes, no electronics of any kind. We are cruel parents, indeed. Not surprisingly, this last bit of torture took its toll. Andrew complained, moped, nagged and proclaimed his innocence in a desperate attempt for amnesty and a rescinding of the Xbox ban. “You’re the one who’s always telling me to fight back, and now you’re punishing me for it? It’s not fair!”; “He’s always hitting me and you never do anything to him! It’s not fair!”; “Argh! I’m so booo-rrred! It’s not fair!” Tough cookies, Andrew. Life isn’t fair, get used to it. And guess what? He did. He broke out some clay and began creating amazing aliens and other creatures. He rode his bike and walked the dog. He, gulp, read a book. He even enlisted his twin sister and former-nemesis teenage brother to create a pillow-avalanche scenario in the

basement where they taught our Labrador to perform search and rescue missions. I know! What’s more, the rest of the kids followed suit. Whether in solidarity for their imprisoned comrade or simply because his activities looked like more fun, they too spent a lot less time engrossed in their computers, Kindles, and i-paraphernalia. It’s like they suddenly remembered they had imaginations and how to use them! Coincidentally, my brother-in-law informed me at taekwondo that he was experiencing a similar phenomenon at his house. They, too, had instituted “Amish Week” as a punishment for their 8-yearold, and were amazed to see him returning to “the good ol’ days” prior to mass electronics. So what did I learn as a parent through all of this? For starters, my children are addicts. Secondly, as adults, Doo and I can break the cycle if we choose. Well, little Wilsons, we choose. Yes, Andrew had to hit rock bottom for us to realize there was a major problem, but now the jig is up. I am pleased to report that we have already implemented steps (12 actually) to ensure all of our kids are on the road to video-game recovery. Don’t know how long it will last, but it’s a start. Peace out.

The big story this past month is not that one of our big stars (Miley Cyrus) is twerking, but that one of our medium-sized stars may humor someday stop working. I am talking about our sun, but Miley’s prospects for future employment might also be dimming. This end-of-the-world prediction comes courtesy of astro-biologist Andrew Rushby, a PhD candidate at the University of East Anglia in Great Britain, where life already ended unofficially for fellow students three weeks ago when the administration began prohibiting drinking Guinness in the college dorms. Rushby used what he calls “classic models” to help make his futuristic predictions. Here are a few examples of what those models suggested about the timing of the demise of the sun: • Kathy Ireland: 1.5 billion years • Claudia Schiffer: 2.3 billion years • Tyra Banks: 3.5 billion years Averaging it all, Rushby’s final conclusion is that earth will be uninhabitable somewhere between 1.75 billion years and 3.25 billion from now. At first, this prediction really scared me because I thought it said a million years. Whew! Rushby, who first trained as a meteorologist, is also saying that the final day the earth exists, whenever it is, will be cloudy with scattered showers and a really good chance of record heat. There is some good news. Rushby says that if we are good stewards of the earth we could

squeeze out an extra weekend or two, which may not seem like much, but for those on spring break that year, that’s really a huge difference. Assuming we have at least a couple hundred thousand years’ notice, Rushby has a few ideas “where earthlings might want to move.” Mars will probably be habitable longer than Earth, so before this world ends, we will have plenty of time to move to Mars. Then in a truly optimistic note he claims that the Red Planet would be a great place to watch the sun go through its final self-destruction. Remember, it’s never too soon to get tickets for these kinds of events. Rushby is also a big admirer of the exoplanet Gliese 581d as an alternative to Earth, and really, can you blame him? This life-sustaining globe is only 20 light years away (about 120 trillion miles), which, like the college you attended, is close enough to home in an emergency but far enough way to prevent your parents from bugging you. Rushby will officially get his doctorate in June 2014 and his professors say he is a brilliant student with a great future. Asked by some local journalists what his plans are after graduating, he admitted that he just isn’t sure. “It’s difficult,” he said, “to think that far ahead.”

Local businesses, volunteers participate in annual charity ball By Nancy Edwards • nancy@youarecurrent.com

A community of volunteers, local businesses and the Fishers Rotary Club are collaborating to create the spirit of giving this holiday season for residents of Sierra Leone, cover story Africa. The second Water Is Life Charity Ball, hosted by the Fishers Rotary Club, will be auctioning Christmas trees to raise money for thousands of residents in Sierra Leone who do not have access to clean drinking water. The ball is 6 to 11 p.m. on Dec. 7 at Forum Conference Center. “This has been a great outreach event in the town of Fishers,” said John Weingardt, honorary chairperson for this year’s charity ball. “There are great volunteers involved. Folks here share care and concern; they’re making a better life for the people of Sierra Leone.” Local vendors are currently displaying Christmas trees that have been created by volunteer designers in the community. These trees will be up for auction at the charity ball. Gallery 116 will show a Christmas tree and a festive holiday tablescape beginning Nov. 14 with an open house. “This year we have more awareness (of the event), and the fact that it’s backed by the Rotary Club gives some substance that (the community) can relate to,” said Gallery 116 co-owner Tracy Gritter. “It’s just good for everybody around.” This is the second year that Gallery 116 will be involved with the event. The Rotary Club also will be providing a trail map for visitors to get a visual for where the trees are. (A copy of it is on Page 16.) Last year’s charity ball raised $55,000. That amount, along with matching funds from the Rotary Club, provided fresh water for thousands of residents in Sierra Leone. Contributing to Water Is Life has brought perspective to volunteers and members of Fishers Rotary Club, including board member Rusty Webb. “In Sierra Leone, little boys wear two liter bottles as shoes, and there is one outfit shared between two little boys,” he said. “We’re so blessed here; I have a car and don’t even complain about the traffic anymore.” Many guests of last year’s charity ball, including David Berman, said they appreciated the food, tone, entertainment and the organization of the event. “The venue was perfect for this very significant event in the Fishers Rotary commitment to service,” Berman said. “The big band was superb, the event well-coordinated; between food service,

Christmas trees to auction

Fishers Rotary Club will be auctioning off a variety of Christmas trees decorated by designers. Local businesses will be housing the trees and holding open houses for the public to view the trees before the event. See the Christmas Tree Trail Map on Page 16. A list of the designers, where the trees are displayed and open houses are as follows: This year’s Water Is Life Charity Ball will include silent and live auction, cocktail hour, a jazz/swing orchestra, dancing, a three-course dinner and a visit from “Indy’s Best Santa,” Ty Stover.

entertainment and the silent auction. The atmosphere in both the lobby and in the ballroom was one of appreciation and community. The guests enjoyed their meal, which was well-prepared and served, plentiful and tasted very good.” Fishers Rotary member Beth Gehlhausen called the experience of last year’s event “a wonderful night.” “I am so proud to be a Fishers Rotarian,” she said. Weingardt encourages the public to enjoy a fun night out. “Get out, relax and have a great evening,” he said. The best part, of course, is helping to save lives

through providing clean water, which is what the Rotary Club has been doing since 2008. Since then, more than $550,000 has been raised and 100,000 people have had access to clean water. “As a born Sierra Leone, on behalf of our mothers, fathers, children and nation, I want to thank you all for doing the best you all could to save lives in Sierra Leone,” stated Massah Saffa, who lives in Sierra Leone. “Water is life, and as you give our people life, God will breathe a life of blessing to you.” Tickets are still available. Guests will once again be treated to a cocktail hour, three-course dinner, a live jazz/swing orchestra, dancing, and live and silent auctions, in addition to “Indy’s Best Santa,” Ty Stover. Dress is black-tie optional. This year’s silent auction will offer Pacers tickets, a limo ride, tires, jewelry, trips and more. “Seeing the faces of the children and their parents (from Sierra Leone) in the video of this amazing gift of life (pure clean water) will never leave me,” Berman concluded. If you go: The second Water Is Life Charity Ball will be held from 6 to 11 p.m. Dec. 7 at Forum C.U. Conference Center, 11313 USA Pkwy. The cocktail reception starting at 6 p.m. will be followed by dinner, live and silent auctions and live music from a jazz/swing orchestra. Tickets are $100 each.

French revolution comes to Beef & Boards’ stage

By Patricia Rettig • news@currentinfisher.com

It’s a particularly busy school year for two talented young performers from Carmel who are currently on stage in Beef theatre & Boards Dinner Theatre’s premiere production of Les Misérables. Beef & Boards. As young Cosette, Anja Reese portrays the girl who has become the iconic image of Les Misérables – orphaned, poor and pale. But this Clay Middle School eighth-grader is feeling better than ever after being able to return to performing. “Last year I had nodules on my vocal chords,” Anja, 13, said. “I had to rest my voice and I wasn’t able to participate in musical theatre for a while, which wasn’t easy.” With the help of a vocal therapist, Anja is able to sing without the nodules, allowing her to make her debut at Beef & Boards in one of her favorite musicals. “From a very young age, I have always loved performing,” she said. “I also enjoyed seeing Broadway shows and listening to their soundtracks. It was truly magical to me.” Although this is her first show at Beef & Boards, Anja has been seen in several regional productions, and says it is a dream of hers to perform on Broadway. Returning to the Beef & Boards stage is Kendall Greene, 11, who was a munchkin in last season’s production of The Wizard of Oz. “I love to entertain,” the Creekside Middle School student said. “I love to dance,” she added, noting she’s particularly proud of earning first place at two different dance competitions. Kendall is a member of the Edge Force Competition Team at Performer’s Edge Studio. It was her love of dance, in fact, that brought her to Beef & Boards. “My dance teacher suggested (I) audition,” Kendall said. In addition to Anja and Kendall, the epic

Madame Thénardier (Annie Edgerton), right, fusses over her spoiled daughter, Eponine (Kendall Green of Carmel) in Les Misérables.

Cosette (Anja Reese of Carmel) sings “Castle on a Cloud” in Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre’s production of Les Misérables.

production features four Broadway performers in the cast, is now on stage at Beef & Boards through Nov. 24. Set in France and based on the novel by Victor Hugo, the compelling story centers on Jean Valjean, who is released from the harsh 19-year prison sentence he received for stealing a loaf of bread. Although freed, he remains an outcast until he breaks his parole and assumes a different identity. Embarking on a new life, Valjean becomes a respectable citizen and is even elected mayor before he agrees to raise the child of a dying woman who had worked in his factory. Javert, an officer obsessed with justice who has pursued Valjean since he broke parole, discovers the truth about his changed identity and attempts to capture the former convict. Valjean flees with young Cosette and becomes a father to her, but even he can’t protect her heart from being stolen by a young and passionate revolutionary as the French civil unrest builds. Making his Beef & Boards debut in the iconic role of Jean Valjean is Gregg Goodbrod, a member of the original Broadway cast of “Thoroughly

Modern Millie.” Also making their Beef & Boards debuts are Joe Tokarz in the role of the relentless Inspector Javert, Whitney Meyer as Cosette and Stephanie Torns, who played Elphaba in “Wicked” on Broadway, as Eponine. Returning to the Beef & Boards stage are Sarah Hund as Fantine, Dominic Sheahan-Stahl as Marius Pontmercy, Annie Edgerton (who performs the role of Rosie in “Mama Mia” on Broadway) as Madame Thénardier and Douglas E. Stark as Monsieur Thénardier. Scott Beck of Lafayette, Ind., who was in the Broadway companies of “Grease,” “Smokey Joe’s Café,” and “Saturday Night Fever,” plays the role of the factory foreman. Tickets range from $37.50 to $62.50 and include Chef Odell Ward’s dinner buffet, a fruit and salad bar and a drink. Discounts are available for children and groups of 20 or more. Parking is free.

A different kind of bar Commentary by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley The American tailgater’s favorite and most practical dessert is the bar cookie. Unless you are from the Scandinavian upper Midwest, then it’s just called a bar. Bars have evolved from most any pie or candy imaginable and have been a regular part of our diet from childhood. So why use bars as a tailgate treat? Bars are great for tailgating because they are easy to make, easy to preserve, easy to transport and best of all – easy to eat. You generally don’t need a fork or even a plate to eat bars – just use your hands. When the first edition of The Tailgater’s Handbook was written, a friend of ours named Marie Simmons offered us her collection of delicious bar recipes from her book “Bar Cookies A to Z.” Simmons was food editor for “Cuisine” magazine at the time and has also been a columnist for “Bon Appetit” magazine and the Los Angeles Times. Here is an adaptation of one of Marie’s bar recipes - great for tailgating or the upcoming holiday season. Sticky Pecan Bars

purpose flour, 1/3 cup sugar, pinch of salt, 1 stick plus 2 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter (cut into pieces), 1 large egg yolk Filling Ingredients: 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup dark corn syrup, 3 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2 cups large pecan halves Crust Preparation: Combine flour, sugar and salt in the bowl of a food processor. With motor running, gradually add butter through the feed tube and process until blended. Add egg yolk and continue until fully mixed; set aside. Turn mixture out into lightly buttered 9-inch square pan and press dough into the pan evenly with 1/4 inch up the sides. Refrigerate until ready to bake. Filling Preparation: In medium-sized bowl stir flour and brown sugar together. Add corn syrup, eggs and vanilla; whisk until blended. Spread pecans over crust in an even layer and pour the filling over everything. Baking: Oven should be preheated to 400 degrees. Bake 10 minutes at 400 degrees, then reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for 25 more minutes, or until the filling is firm. Cool on a wire rack before cutting into bars.

Ball State graduate Emily Behny will play the role of Nessarose Thropp, the woman who becomes the Wicked Witch of the East in “Wicked.” (Submitted photo by Joan Marcus.)

Nessarose Thropp, the woman who becomes the Wicked Witch of the East. “I am so happy to be back home in Indiana. As an actor, I don’t get to spend much time at home, let alone for the holidays, so I’m so thankful for the extended visit,” Behny said. “There really is ‘no place like home.’ I can make anywhere

homey, including hotel rooms, but nothing can compare to the safety and comfort of your childhood home and being able to spend quality time with friends and family.” The Silver Lake, Ind., native said her parents, in-laws and best friend still live in northern Indiana. Her sister and extended family live in the Indianapolis area. “I have many friends still there, so this truly will be a homecoming,” she said. “I have professors and friends from both my college, Ball State University, and high school, Warsaw High School, coming to support ‘Wicked.’ In fact, at one matinee alone, 17 family members and 30 high school theatre students will be in the audience.” One of her favorite things about Indiana is the pace of life. “As much as I enjoy the hustle and bustle of (New York City) and the transient life of an actor, I miss being rooted in a community that takes their time,” she said. “I also miss the warm smiles and hellos from perfect strangers on the street.” “The best part of my job is traveling the country and getting paid to do what I love. I love traveling and learning about culture in other cities, and I Iove that my job brings me close to home,” she said. “I also love interacting with the fans of ‘Wicked,’ doing Q & As and workshops that further impact people for the better.” For more information, visit www.ticketmaster. com/wicked or call (800) 982-2787.

Keep your resolutions going Commentary by April Conard

The holiday season is fast approaching, and with it comes the baking, the family feasts and the parties. Of course, that will fitness include New Years Eve. What is the first thing you think about when you think New Year … maybe resolutions? Most of us will make some kind of healthbased New Year’s resolution. It might be to give up a forbidden food, utilize that gym membership, or even join one. With these resolutions in the back of our minds, it makes it much easier to devour every holiday treat and skip your workout. You can do this with little or no guilt because in the New Year, you will get those eating habits in check. You will do cardio and strength training 5 days a week to make up for lost time. You can start over in the New Year, so why not let it all go for awhile, it’s the holidays! Call me crazy but here is a thought, how about making your new year’s resolution to continue your healthy lifestyle, not start it. To increase the cardio workouts you are already doing, to add more vegetables to your already good eating habits. Hear me out before you

start justifying your poor choice of food and your lack of time spent exercising. I don’t want you to rob yourself of this special time and that includes some yummy treats. It also includes more time with family and friends, which means a little less time at the gym. Your plan of action is moderation. Make choices; eat sensibly all day when your plans include a party. You may need to skip the gym to spend time with family but instead of sitting around eating leftovers, organize a football game. If you have to skip your aerobics class because your shopping list is long, park far from the mall entrance and return to your car after each purchase. Go into the holidays knowing you will not let your healthy habits fall by the wayside. Realize how much farther along you will be into your fitness journey without two months off. This might not be the time to shed the pounds but it doesn’t have to be the time to gain them.

Free lung scans offered to military vets news@currentinfishers.com In honor of American veterans and in observance of Lung Cancer Awareness Month, Franciscan St. Francis Health is prevention offering free lung scans to at-risk veterans during the month of November. Veterans have a 25 to 50 percent higher risk of lung cancer than civilian populations due to higher smoking rates and exposure to known carcinogens during active duty, such as Agent Orange, asbestos and battlefield combustibles. According to the Lung Cancer Alliance, currently 32.2 percent of active duty military personnel smoke versus 19.8 percent of adults in the civilian population and 22 percent of veterans. “As a lung cancer screening center, we believe it’s important that we provide safe screenings to at-risk populations,” said Nadeem Ikhlaque, M.D., lung cancer program medical director at Franciscan St. Francis Cancer Center. “Screening for lung cancer using low-dose radiation CT scans has the potential to save thousands of lives. We encourage all veterans to learn more about their risk and to consider a lung screening.” To qualify for the free screening, veterans must be between the ages of 55 and 75 and a long-time smoker. Appointments can be scheduled by calling 1-877-888-1777.

Obamacare: an insurance viewpoint Commentary by Karl Ahlrichs Let’s agree that insurance is tough to understand. Start with the fact that people in general don’t like the subject, and Insurance when we add politics to the mix we have a perfect storm. Much of recent news coverage of Obamacare has been focused on election-year presidential promises that claimed everyone could keep their existing health insurance policy if they liked it. Clearly, that wasn’t 100 percent correct. President Barack Obama should have said “most” instead of “all.” But he didn’t. For a moment, please step outside the political echo chamber and into the health insurance strategy meetings that I am a part of. Let me share some of the larger picture that is guiding insurance policy. First, let’s look at the size of the problem. The particular issue of policy cancellation affects less than 4 percent of Americans - those who buy individual health insurance directly, rather than the 80 percent who get it from their jobs or government programs, or the 15 percent who have no health insurance at all. As an insurance professional, I know that some plans have always been risks – they’re cheap, but they offer poor coverage. People with this minimal insurance often think they are covered, then they go bankrupt when their medical bills start piling up. But not all the insurance plans being canceled are these minimal coverage plans. Some people really do like their plans, and they’re losing them because of new Obamacare rules. Why? The law standardizes health plans by mandating a basic set of minimum essential benefits

that some of today’s insurance products don’t cover. It also limits annual out-of-pocket expenses to $6,350 for a single person. Plans that do not reflect these changes are not allowed. What if you get dropped? Shop around. You may be able to get help paying for your insurance through Obamacare subsidies, which are available on a sliding scale through the federal marketplace to anyone who earns up to four times the federal poverty level or about $46,000 for a single person this year. Insurance companies have always been quick to discontinue unprofitable plans, cancel coverage for insureds with excessive claims, change benefits or raise prices. This is not very different. This disruption is happening despite Obama saying, “If you like your plan, you can keep your plan.” We insurance advisors always knew that this promise could never be kept. We knew that with the law getting rid of insurance with lesser benefits and weaker financial protections, that there would be some disappointed consumers. While you may or may not agree with the changes, at their core the new rules follow basically sound risk management principles. Short term, it is uncomfortable for those who can’t get what they have always had. Long term, it may help. There is a storm blowing through our world of health insurance, and some people will pay more and some will pay less. We will all be sharing the risk, and in the world of risk management, less is more.

Is ‘these ones’ OK?

Commentary by Jordan Fischer

Question: “I ran across an article that you had written in The Southside Times about grammar. Grammar was not grammar guy (and still is not) one of my strong points, but in today’s world I constantly hear people using the term ‘these ones’ instead of just ‘these.’ Is there any way this is correct grammar? It’s not really a major concern in the whole scheme of things, but it just rubs me the wrong way.” (Ed) Answer: Consider, if you will, a bakery counter full of donuts. The counter has four types of donuts – chocolate, glazed, raspberry and cream cheese – arranged in groups from left to right. The clerk behind the counter is ready to sell you as many donuts as you would like, and, being a good and decent person, you’re ready to oblige her. Let’s look at the ways this transaction could occur: • “I want one.” You haven’t provided the clerk with much information. You’re still getting a donut, but it could be any of the four types. • “I want this one.” Now, the clerk knows exactly which type of donut you would like and, in fact, exactly which donut out of that group you would like. “This” acts as a determiner to the pronoun, “one,” sig-

nifying an individual item within a group. When a pronoun like “one” is paired with a determiner, it forms a pronominal – or a pronoun phrase, more or less. • “I want five of these ones.” Here, we still have a pronominal. But is it necessary? Does it function any better than “these” – acting as a pronoun – would alone? If we were to say, “I want five of these,” the clerk would have just as much information as the previous phrase. “These” and “these ones” both serve to indicate a subset of a group of donuts. And while “one” in the pronominal “this one” does double duty by indicating the quantity of donuts desired, it does not in “these ones,” instead acting as an indefinite pronoun. I was unable to find a hard-and-fast rule prohibiting the use of “these ones.” However, it seems to me a redundant and inelegant-sounding phrase, and that alone should be cause to avoid it. If you do come across a rule about this phrase in your travels, I’d love to read it, though. As for me … I’m suddenly craving donuts.

The Gates of Hades in rock at Caesarea Philippi. (Photo by Don Knebel.)

The Gates of Hades

Commentary by Don Knebel

Before heading south to Jerusalem for the last time, Jesus led his little band of Jewish followers about 25 miles north of their base travel around the Sea of Galilee to the region of Caesarea Philippi, a thoroughly Roman city at the foot of Mount Hermon. As recorded in Greek in the Gospel of Matthew, while there Jesus said: “And I tell you that you are Peter (Petros) and on this rock (petra) I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.” For hundreds of years, theologians who have never seen where this claim was made have debated its theological meaning. A visit to Caesarea Philippi suggests that Jesus’ words were much more literal than many people recognize. Caesarea Philippi was near an important pagan temple first established by the Greeks, who had built the city and called it “Paneas” in honor of their god, Pan. The temple, important to both Greeks and Romans, surrounded a large opening in a natural rock wall more than 500 feet long and 100 feet high. The Greeks and Romans believed that this opening led directly to the damp and shadowy home of the dead that the Greeks

called Hades. To appease the potentially angry gods who lived in these nether regions, worshippers made sacrifices before idols residing in niches carved into the rock face near the literal “gates of Hades.” Standing in front on the enormous rock wall near Caesarea Philippi, there is no mystery about either the rock or the gates of Hades that Jesus spoke about. The rock was the home of the pagan gods residing in the niches and the gates of Hades was the entrance to the dreaded realm of the dead. Within 30 years of Jesus’ bold claim in front of this rock, churches had been established in his name throughout the lands of the gods of the Roman Empire. One of keys to this rapid growth of Christianity was its promise to overcome the dreary pagan view of an afterlife in Hades. Jesus’ famous statement at Caesarea Philippi seems to have been more prophetic than theological. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP.

Accomplishments over character Commentary by Mike Colaw

Why we let tyrannical people rule and will continue to do so. Here it is up front, then I will explain in detail below. It’s because we worship accomplishments over spirituality character. I read an article from the Huffington Post today that really grabbed my attention. The Post did a retrospective look at one of America’s heroes, Christopher Columbus. I had heard that he wasn’t that great of a guy, but I had no idea it went this far. “On his second trip to the New World, Columbus brought cannons and attack dogs. If a native resisted slavery, he would cut off a nose or an ear. If slaves tried to escape, Columbus had them burned alive. Other times, he sent attack dogs to hunt them down, and the dogs would tear off the arms and legs of the screaming natives while they were still alive. If the Spaniards ran short of meat to feed the dogs, Arawak babies were killed for dog food.” I know the accuracy of this is controversial and the Post is known for exaggeration, but we also know from Columbus’s very own journals that he was no saint. The culture of Columbus’s day was characteristically crass and open to slavery, but Biblical instruction for bondservants was still very different than what Columbus was doing. In any given culture and age, he was absolutely mistreating people.

I guess what bothers me most is we really haven’t progressed out of the human tendency that allows for this to happen. We still worship accomplishments over character. Even in the Christian world today we all follow leaders who win our agenda, not necessarily those who have good character. This is why I love Jesus. You don’t see him slaughtering those who opposed him on the battlefield. His whole approach was different. His goal was the heart, not forced obedience. How a leader accomplishes their goals matters as much as the goals they are trying to accomplish. Character matters! I plead with you! Please don’t follow people because of their accomplishments alone; pay attention to their character. We must choose to celebrate character over accomplishments, or these types of stories will continue to plague our history books. Whom do you follow? Who do you admire? Do you stand with the ones who just win your agenda or do you pay attention to character? This is just a section of a longer article. You are welcome to check it out at www.luke117.com along with reference links.

What drives your self-worth? What are the types of messages you tell yourself? Do you tell yourself things like, “You are fat, look self at you! You are stupid. What is wrong with you? You are not good enough. You have no friends. No one is going to like me when they find out who I really am. I am so ugly. I am a loser.” These are just a snapshot of some of the things we tell ourselves. We wouldn’t talk to our friends the way we talk to ourselves. It is important to explore when and where these messages come from. Chances are they started when you were young. We start off as pure souls and then begin to layer ourselves with messages we receive from our families, society and other important people in our lives. We don’t want to blame others for our feelings or beliefs because we are ultimately responsible for them. We want to unpack them in order to grow. We have the opportunity to change these beliefs. It begins with a desire and willingness to work on self-acceptance. We start by building awareness, reflecting and exploring. I highly recommend getting a notebook or journal. 1. Write down the beliefs you have about yourself. What are the statements you tell yourself when you look in the mirror or when you are feeling anxious or afraid?

What are your beliefs? Commentary by Kristen Boice

OKAY TURKEYS

2. Explore where these beliefs started. Can you picture someone telling you this negative statement? Did your parents feel this way about themselves and pass it on to you? Did you pick it up from societal messages? Write out your answers. 3. Ask yourself, “How is this belief serving me?” Chances are this isn’t serving you at all. It is keeping you stuck and stealing your joy. 4. Write yourself a letter. This may sound silly but it works if you are willing to trust the process. Write yourself a loving, compassionate note filled with grace (as if you were writing it to a friend) about everything you love about you. Look for the good. Use this letter whenever the negative self-talk starts coming up. 5. Give yourself permission to not be perfect. We learn from our mistakes and imperfections. What would we learn and how much would we grow if we were all perfect? Not much. Give yourself grace when you “mess up.” It’s okay. Learn from it and let it go.

Enlarged shower and closet highlight new master bath

Commentary by Larry Greene

EXISTING BATHROOM: This home is located in the Reserve at blueprint for Geist improvement subdivision in Fishers. The homeowners purchased their home 7 years ago and did not like the master bathroom. “The shower was too small, and the master closet was also too small for two to share.” ADDING SPACE: “At first the main focus was on the master bathroom and rearranging the master closet,” stated the owner. “Then our designer suggested we utilize the large bonus room off the master bedroom as a second master closet. We were using it as an office, but there was plenty of room to add the closet.” RECONFIGURING FLOORPLAN: Reconfiguring the footprint of the master bath created the functionality they were seeking. The former tub area became the space for the enlarged shower, with glass blocks filling the window space to allow light in while preserving privacy. Double vanities flank each side of the shower, and the soaking tub was moved to the space behind the door. “The bathroom feels bigger now, even

though we have the same footprint,” stated the homeowner. BATH DETAILS: Finishes in the remodel were meant to reflect a “cosmopolitan Vegas” look. Maple cabinets in a Dolce finish were complimented by the Shitake granite and the Stark Tortora floor tile. The vanity backsplash was covered in Legno glass Stria tile, the same tile used as an accent in the tub and shower. The shower’s unique accent tile pattern is highlighted by the glass block windows and the 8 x 24-inch wall tile. The plumbing fixtures were chosen for their contemporary style. CLOSET DETAILS: A custom closet system was

added to the bonus room, along with a center island of drawers and built-in desk area. “The closet turned out to be my favorite part of the remodel,” said the homeowner. “I love the shoe rack and the island. And there is privacy for the office area because we added doors.”
