Four Fishers teachers receive Lilly Endowment grant By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Four Fishers teachers have each received a $12,000 Lilly Endowment Teacher Creativity grant to pursue one of their dreams education while bringing back innovative ideas to the classroom. Each year, Lilly Endowment awards the grant to 100 educators in grades K-12 in Indiana. Darcy Banitt Banitt is an honors biology and forensic science teacher at Fishers High School. She will bike across the nation for 45 days, leaving in late May. “It’s always been a dream of mine to do something like that,” Banitt said. “I really like the outdoors. My family goes hiking in national parks as much as we can, and my husband Banitt and I bike to school every day. The purpose of the Lilly grant is a teacher creativity renewal type of thing. They want us to do something that has always been a passion of ours to renew our creativity. What I found in thinking about this project is that so many different disciplines can be worked into the actual bike ride – the physics of the biking, the art of the photography and scenery I’m going to see, journaling, math. So many different subjects fit into it. I hope to bring back my experience to the whole school.” Heather Butz Butz teaches medieval Europe to sixth graders at Sand Creek Elementary. She will travel through London, Paris and Germany and visit various castles and concentration camps. In one of Butz’s Butz

lessons, she teaches students about castles. The students then create castles on the game Minecraft. She also teaches about the Holocaust. Butz will leave in July for 20 days. She’s applied for the grant once prior to receiving it this year. “It’s the chance of a lifetime,” she said. “I would never have gotten to do this without this grant.” David Greiwe Greiwe teaches fourth grade at Cumberland Road Elementary and wrote his grant using an engineering design process. Greiwe will bicycle through Germany to explore his ancestral roots and visit a German elementary school that teaches science, technology, engineering and mathematics. “I will make contact with a teacher and have my class Skype with their class and Greiwe share some ideas of what they’re doing in their class that we might not be doing with our students,” Greiwe said. He also hopes to create a bike-to-school day at the elementary school. Leslie Johnson Johnson teaches fifth grade social studies at Fall Creek Intermediate School. She will travel the American West and will photograph and document her experience. “For the longest time, I wanted to be a photojournalist,” she said. “I’ve traveled most of the U.S. but never the western region. I Johnson can pull from books and online sources, but I don’t have a personal knowledge to be able to explain (to my students). This will help bring more knowledge into that area of teaching.” For more, visit lillyendowment.org.

The Fishers resident pubauthor lished “Life Transition Planning: The New Paradigm for Baby Boomers and Their Parents.” Cala said the book is a follow up to his first book, “Money Talks: A Banker Speaks Out on the Great Recession,” published in 2010. Cala said that book explained the origins and reasons for the Great Recession along with the significant legislation that was passed in the following two years after the recession. “My new book looks at American life eight years after the Great Recession and is based on observations I have made as a banker over the last 30 years, working in Indianapolis and in Naples, Florida,” Cala said. Cala, a certified financial planner with his own consulting company, said with nearly 80 million baby boomers transitioning into retirement, preparation is key. “What happened in 1999, 2000 and 2008 were significant downturns in the (stock) market, which affected the baby boomers because now many of them are not prepared

Growing craft the

Weaver LindaMarie Hanson dedicates her life to teaching the art of weaving By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com Perfecting her craft for more than four decades, LindaMarie Hanson said it’s her personal mission and quest cover story to keep weaving alive. “I started serious weaving in 1975, and ever since then it has been my lifelong hobby,” she said. “Almost every day since 1975, I’ve been weaving, or planning a weaving, or reading a book on weaving, or speaking on it.” Hanson began her weaving career in 1975 after her friend bought her a small tabletop loom as a gift when she was 23. Two years later, she got her first government job at the arts and crafts recreation center at Fort Harrison. “In the ’70s, the Vietnam War was over and all these soldiers who had been drafted were still in (military service), and a bunch of them had extended their enlistments,” Hanson said. “However, there was an issue of dealing with the soldiers’ morale. So they opened up all these recreation centers that had pottery, darkrooms to develop photography, woodworking, and the one at Fort Harrison was multifunctional with large weaving looms. So it could provide something for the soldier and their families.” As time passed, programs were cut, and Hanson eventually was moved into a payroll job with the military, prompting a move to Fort Bliss in Texas and later to Denver, Colo., to work for the Defense Finance and Accounting Service. Despite the job change, she continued teaching classes and joining

weaving and arts guilds. But in 2014, she moved back to her hometown of Fortville to open Hanson Weavery at 101 W. Michigan St. “So, I’m living in Colorado, and I’m working in finance, and 37-1/2 years went by, and I decided that I was eligible for retirement,” Hanson said. “So, I retired at the end of June 2014. I put my house on the market on July 2, sold the house on July 3 and came back Indiana.” The big blue house that houses the weavery also is Hanson’s home. The first floor is dedicated almost entirely to multiple large floor looms. Hanson lives on the second floor. In the home, she lives out her dream of teaching, offering beginner classes regularly for small groups to make table linens like runners and placemats, pillows and more on a Rigid Heddle loom. She also offers “weave a-scarf parties,” much like wine and canvas parties where groups of four can come to the weavery, bring their own beverages, and create a scarf. Since opening the Hanson Weavery in the fall of 2014, Hanson said she estimates she’s taught weaving to nearly 100 people. “What I would really like to do is teach extensive weaving, getting somebody from beginner all the way into intermediate, help them buy their own loom, and then kiss them goodbye," she said. "Of course, you really start to like the person a lot, and it’s hard to say goodbye, but I will have grown the craft.” To learn more, contact Hanson at hansonweavingstudio@gmail.com, or call 1-303-521-8165.

Classes and events Rigid Heddle Weaving for Beginners For adults only, this class is meant for those who have no weaving experience, using materials that are inexpensive and easy to use. Most materials are provided. Cost is $70, and there are five to six weekly classes. The next series of classes begins Jan. 31, and after that, March 14. Registration is required. Beginner Large-Loom Weaving Introduces weaving on a large floor loom, and students can learn about loom tools, weaving vocabulary, yarn calculations and estimations and more. These weekly classes begin on the first Wednesday of each month and last for approximately eight weeks. Cost is $200. Registration is required.

Yarn and hardware are provided for the first project. No weaving experience is needed. For adults and youth in seventh grade and older. Cost is $60. Call for class times. Registration is required. Weave-a-Scarf Parties These events are for those who want to give weaving a try. Students can make a scarf in approximately four hours on a Rigid Heddle loom. For ages 12 and older. Cost is $40. Call to schedule. Registration is required. Radical Rag Rug (for teens and tweens) Students of this class will make a rug from a hula-hoop. Cost is $40. Call to schedule. Registration is required.

“Back in the day, weaving was a necessity, but now that we’re in the modern centuries, people don’t have to know it. I made it my personal quest to keep weaving alive. It’s an ancient craft, and if we don’t keep it alive, we’ll lose it.”

Dance fever

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Trump misses an opportunity At the recent Golden Globes Awards, cinematic icon Meryl Streep unleashed a torrent of invective goop on President-elect Donald Trump. She had just won the Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement and took the occasion to lash out at Trump, renouncing his campaign rhetoric and criticizing him for mocking a disabled reporter during the campaign. Note: No mention of the abduction, beating and semi-scalping of the mentally disabled Chicagoan by thugs. Sigh. Her dime, her dance floor, we suppose. The really troubling element from that saga was Trump taking to Twitter to fire back with name-calling. Opportunity missed. He should have ignored it. Under the First Amendment she is entitled to her opinion (not that we agree with it or the “safe space” venue in which she chose to exercise it), and, second, silence would have been golden. Aren’t there more important issues at hand, soon-to-be Mr. President, than yet another Hollywood liberal going off against you? Let. It. Go. Stop Twitter bombing at every opportunity. We do, though, kind of like your notion to break news via your Twitter account instead of in the liberal, mainstream media; they’ll make it up, anyway. If, truly, it’s a new dawn in America, Trump needs to prove it by being presidential in every single way; well, not in the Clinton way, but we digress. We have no clue what he hoped to accomplish with his 140-character (plus) dance. Every task at hand is far more important than firing back at an entertainment lefty running off at the mouth.

What we eat Commentary by Terry Anker As kids growing up in late mid-century America, we were taught that “we are what we eat.” Sitting in the back of our thirdgrade classrooms, we giggled that we might become giant walking heads of broccoli or colossal personifications of pork chops. With so many of our supposed new ideas, the refrain did not originate with us but enjoyed a renaissance with the macrobiotic diet craze of the 1960s, as we were reminded that the machines that are our bodies would function better if they were fueled by higher quality consumables. Sure. Many sources cite the early Christian church for first recording references to the notion that, even as we are called to the Holy Eucharist, we are being reminded of the spiritual connection between nourishment and life. By the early 1800s French politician and early gastronome Jean Anthelme BrillatSavarin deployed his version of the notion in the essay “Concerning Spiritualism and

Materialism.” No doubt, truffles, foie gras and Champagne had come to be religious experiences for some, but the point remained: healthy body, healthy mind. By the early part of the 20th century, pioneering nutritionist and radio talk show host Victor Hugo Lindlahr admonished us to be mindful of what we consume, lest we become overweight and lack essential vigor. His 1940 book “You Are What You Eat” reflected a cultural shift focusing solely on the secular benefits of a healthy diet. Too bad. Can we deny the connection between what we put into our bodies and how we feel? If not, can we deny the connection between what we put into our bodies and how we think? Yet even as we marvel in our collective corpulence, do we starve our eternal spirits? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may email him at terry@ youarecurrent.com.

Get your mooches up, people! Football is winding down, but competitive dance is just getting started. Woot, humor woot! Yes, it’s true. I’ve reached the point in every dance mom’s life when she actually looks forward to the dressing-room drama, the bedazzled bootie shorts and the cringeworthy cacophony of hundreds of tweenagers yelling, “Ya-ah, Kayla!” While trapped in a parking garage this morning (literally), I pondered my unbelievable metamorphosis. I’m not particularly girly, nor did I grow up in a world of jazz hands and faux Kardashian lashes. I’d always dreamed of watching my kids from the basketball stands or natatorium seats, or even the freezing soccer sidelines. Never, at least until four years ago, had I imagined I’d happily be packing Dream Duffels full of sequenced costumes, makeup remover, fishnet tights and bun makers, and heading off to local hotels for 36-48 hours of dance competition (nor that I’d be stuck underground at 7:15 a.m.!). In truth, my first year of wading through contemporary marshland with my youngest daughter was almost my last. The time, the money, the stupid judges … and all for watching my precious little angel on stage for maybe seven minutes, total. I could barely handle it. But she clearly has a passion for this, and I could easily see that behind the occasional tears and forgotten bling earrings, she was learning how to persevere under pressure (much like me as I analyzed my escape options). I’ve also learned to squash my sometimes critical but always competitive nature and focus instead on how much fun she is having and the wonderful friendships she is making. And with the right attitude, Netflix and a pair of high-quality ear plugs, the weekends can be rather pleasurable (even when I seriously cannot get out of this stupid garage!). So get ready for some unbelievable tales of tacky parenting and outrageous toddlers, my friends, for rarely does a dance season disappoint. I promise to deliver the juice, freshly squeezed, as I dive headfirst into the crazy (right after I solve this absurd parking predicament, that is). Peace out.

Art of humor

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

From my first day of college in September of 1965 at George Washington University in Washington, D.C., I wanted to meet humor famed humorist Art Buchwald. His office, on Pennsylvania Avenue, was just down the street from my dorm. In 1967, I persuaded the editor of the student newspaper, “The Hatchet,” to give me my own weekly humor column. The feature, “Wolf’s Whistle,” ran in almost 100 college newspapers – possibly the first student syndicated humor column in the country. Headstrong and naive, I figured I could just look up Mr. Buchwald’s home number in the phone book. There it was. When he answered the phone, I nervously filled him in on my own “rich” history of writing humor columns. When I told him I attended classes just a few blocks from his office, he invited me to come over for a short visit. Two days later, I called Mr. Buchwald’s secretary. “Yes,” she said, “Mr. Buchwald said you’d be calling.” I stammered, “He did?” I entered his office with a stack of “Hatchets” under my arm. He stole a glance at me and snapped, “Let me see one of those newspapers, kid.” I’d love to report to you that he

burst out laughing. Instead, he just stared at the page, steely eyed. Not even a smile. Only a subtle nod of the head that made me think he saw a glimmer of potential. He grabbed a pen off his desk and scribbled a few words over my byline. Then he answered a phone call, apologized and walked out the door. Dejected, I shuffled back to my apartment and opened the newspaper to the page that Mr. Buchwald had read. I stared in delight at these words scrawled on the paper: “Wolfsie, stay out of my racket.” – Art Buchwald I was only 20, but it was the coolest thing that had ever happened to me. I cut out the message and framed it, along with the photo I had snapped of Mr. Buchwald reading my column. It has been on my desk ever since. You know, that may still be the coolest thing that has ever happened to me. Next week, part 2 of this story… Dick Wolfsie is an author, columnist, and speaker. Contact him at wolfsie@aol.com.

McQueens to launch Fill the Truck By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Since opening approximately a year ago, an Indianapolis-based Junk King franchise owned by Fishers residents Julius giving back and Jacqueline McQueen has participated in various giving back campaigns around the county. The business, which removes unwanted items from a household or business and recycles them, recently announced it would look into launching its own initiative later this year to aid the community. Recently, the couple took part in various initiatives, such as helping Sotherby’s Real Estate collect items to give back to fire victims, and donating recycled items to Goodwill, the Salvation Army, Habitat for Humanity and the Julian Center. Plans are now in place to launch Fill the Truck, the McQueen’s own initiative to give back to those in need. “It’ll be our own initiative. We will be going to local vendors and asking for donations and take our truck around and fill that truck up and disperse those items to homeless people, people with low income or people in the Hamilton County community that need those items,” Julius said. Jacqueline said items will include nonperish-

able food, clothing and some furniture. “We feel really fortunate to get into this business and have the opportunity to do this and run across so many people with so many needs,” Julius said. “It really touches our hearts, especially when we run into someone who is on a fixed income but needs something done. We know it’s a need out there, and we are touched by people who are in need, and we feel fortunate to be where we are. We really believe for every dollar we give out, we receive something in return.” The Fill the Truck campaign is expected to begin around the 2017 holiday season.

Co-owner and cofounder Mike “Cheez” Brown also is a musician and the band manager for The Dirty Heads and Sublime with Rome, and has several connections throughout the Los Angeles music scene.

Blueprint for Improvement: Pool house expansion Commentary by Larry Greene

After

Before Background Info: This home in Carmel’s Springmill Streams neighborhood needed updated outdoor living features around the pool. After building a free-standing garage in 2006, the owners realized they needed a structure to provide more shade and an improved outdoor kitchen/ entertaining/TV viewing area.

Before problems: The previous outdoor kitchen was outdated, and the patio was uncovered and received an excessive amount of sunlight at peak times, making it difficult for the family to enjoy their outdoor living spaces. There also was no outdoor TV and limited covered space to sit and relax. The pool deck also needed some maintenance upgrades.

After solutions: The goal for this backyard was a covered space free of direct sunlight, and other diverse spaces to enjoy the various aspects of the owners’ property. 1. The roofline of the existing pool house was extended to create a seamless transition to the covered outdoor living addition. This expansion that extends to the edge of the pool houses a wood-burning corner fireplace, improvements to the outdoor kitchen and an impressive vaulted ceiling with stained wood trim and accent lighting. 2. An additional feature to block sunlight and wind is an integrated, retractable screen between two of the pillars. 3. The entire concrete pool deck was re-designed and replaced with stamped concrete. This allowed for the original sunken fire pit to be raised up to ground level for easier access. 4. A stained cedar pergola with stone pillars and accent lighting was designed at the opposite end of the pool, overlooking the green space and the crystal clear pool simultaneously. This unique space can be enjoyed in moveable chairs, or even suspended in a hammock. Larry Greene is the owner of Case Design/Remodeling. You may email him at lgreene@caseindy.com.
